Garmin today announced that Harley-Davidson is now offering a new handlebar mounting kit for the Roadtech™ Quest™, allowing thousands of additional motorcycles to take advantage of GPS navigation.
The Roadtech Quest will now fit all 1996 or later models (except the VRSCR Street Rod), providing premium road navigation capabilities – including automatic route calculation and turn-by-turn voice-prompted directions to addresses or points of interest like lodging, restaurants, and Harley-Davidson dealers and service centers. Owners of 1998 or later FLTR Road Glide® models must purchase an additional audio cable to make the Roadtech Quest compatible.
The unit contains 114MB of internal memory for loading detailed map information in the United States, Canada, and Puerto Rico. The unit is sold with Garmin’s MapSource City Select CD-ROM and a PC interface cable, so riders can customize their map data for wherever they’re traveling.
Rugged and waterproof, the Roadtech Quest can be removed from the motorcycle’s mount and stowed in a pocket for safekeeping. Turn-by-turn audible voice prompts are delivered through the bike’s audio system or an included earbud.
With the Roadtech Quest navigation system, riders can choose convenience and peace-of-mind – built by Garmin, a company that is a respected leader in GPS navigation.
Additional features of the Roadtech Quest include:
* High-resolution 256-color TFT color display that’s easy to see in day or night
* Turn-by-turn voice prompted directions
* Calculates shortest or fastest routes to addresses or points of interest
* Automatically recalculates a route if the rider misses a turn
* USB connection for fast detail map downloads from CD-ROM
* Features an internal lithium-ion battery for on-foot adventures
* Also available with European and Australian map data
