Garmin Navigation Products Hits the Road With Harley-Davidson

Roadtech(TM) Quest(TM) to Be Offered on Road Glide(R), Electra Glide(R) Models

OLATHE, Kan., May 16 -- Garmin International, Inc., a unit of Garmin Ltd. , today announced that Harley-Davidson will begin offering a new Garmin-built GPS navigation system as an option specifically designed for its Road Glide and Electra Glide models.

Named the Roadtech Quest, the system provides 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. Riders will enjoy the unit's easy-to-use interface and easy-to-read high-resolution color display.

Best of all, current owners of Harley-Davidson 1998 or later FLHT, FLHTC, FLHTCUI, and FLTRI models can retrofit the Roadtech Quest onto their motorcycle's fairing for a clean and streamlined look.

"Harley-Davidson is a recognized pioneer and innovator, and their brand evokes passion among motorcycle enthusiasts," said Gary Kelley, Garmin's director of marketing. "By equipping the Road Glide and Electra Glide with a proven GPS navigator, bikers can enjoy the ride instead of worrying about how to get there."

The unit contains 114MB of internal memory for loading detailed map information in the United States and Canada. 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 integrated fairing 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. The unit also has an internal lithium-ion battery for on-foot adventures.

The Roadtech Quest navigation system gives riders even more reason to love some of Harley-Davidson's most popular touring models. 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
  --  Built-in 13MB routable Americas basemap that contains airports,
      cities, towns, state and interstate highways, local thoroughfares and
      secondary roads
  --  USB connection for fast detail map downloads from included
      MapSource(R) City Select(R) CD-ROM.
