Garmin Drops a Motorcycle Radar System With Blind-Spot Monitoring, and a Rear Camera
- Thread starter GTAM
- Start date
Hey all - members may start seeing more threads like this popping up in the general forums. This is actually a bit of background function that digs up interesting motorcycle related content from various places and makes posts on the topic.
We're going to start moving more of these out into the forums to strike up some new topics of discussion.
They all link to an article so you have to click-through to read the actual story, but perhaps I'll post a quick synopsis of the article along with the first reply and then we can discuss.
Let us know your thoughts.
Anyhow, the article synopsis:
Garmin has introduced the zūmo™ R1 Radar, a radar system designed to enhance motorcycle safety by providing rearview and blind spot monitoring.
The system discreetly mounts above or below the license plate and features side-facing amber lights and an optional rear-facing red light to increase rider visibility. Handlebar indicator lights alert riders to approaching vehicles, and when paired with the zūmo™ Radar mobile app or a zūmo® XT2 motorcycle navigator, it offers full-screen radar displays and audio alerts. The zūmo R1 Radar is available for $599.99.
