It’s pretty common. Navigating, especially for a motorcyclist, isn’t always easy when he’s going somewhere he hasn’t been before. It’s not like a car where he can ask his passenger to navigate for him.

Of course he can always stop, get off his bike, pull out the map and have a look. Time consuming but works well, till it’s raining.

Have you considered a gift for him to help with all this? How about a motorcycle GPS system?

They aren’t cheap, but for well under $1000 he can have a motorcycle GPS that is specifically designed for motorcycle use. It comes with a mount specifically designed for mounting on a bike, and is fully waterproof and vibration resistant.

It will both show him, and tell him, via wireless bluetooth technology direct to an earpiece in his helmet, exactly where he is going and how to get to where he wants to go. Every step of the way it will give him exact directions so he knows where and when to turn.

Preplan a route and input it into his GPS and it will take him there, or navigate on the fly. Want to go via fuel stops, or accomodation stops, or via various points of interest along the way? It will do it all using preloaded maps of the whole of North America.

Perhaps he’d like to listen to some music along the way? Load it into his motorcycle GPS unit and he can listen all he likes. Maybe take some photos and show them to his friends. His GPS will do that too.

Download it all to his computer at the end of the ride and keep the route for the next time, or send it to friends to review or keep, it’s all possible, and much much more.

And if he’s a car driver as well he can mount his GPS unit in his car and use it the same way when he’s driving.

Motorcycle GPS has come a long way since the days when you got a hand held unit that told you a latitude and a longitude. Modern mapping software is highly effective, and when combined with Global Positioning System Technology, becomes the best and most sought after navigation system in history.

GPS motorcycle navigators like the Garmin Zumo 550 or the Tom Tom Rider 2 are high quality modern GPS navigation systems that will take the headaches out of navigation and turn it into a delight. No more standing beside the road in the rain looking at a soggy map.

They aren’t cheap, but if your man rides a motorbike, and your able to come at a gift in the $500 to $800 range, he’ll love a motorcycle GPS system.
