Description

Official Website: https://www.lawabidingbiker.com This is what you need to know about the new Harley Ride Planner free online software that was released in mid-2018 and replaces the older long-standing online version. Yes, as usual, Harley did this quietly and mostly unannounced. We have had the #1 selling Harley Ride Planner tutorial video for many years.   When this new version was released we made a completely new and revised Harley Ride Planner tutorial video! The new free online Harley Ride Planner software is very different from the older version.  Using the desktop version of Ride Planner is the most useful and best experience. However, in our tutorial video, we show you in great detail how to use both the desktop and the smartphone app version of Harley Ride Planner and the entire Harley-Davidson smartphone app! GET THE OFFICIAL HARLEY RIDE PLANNER TUTORIAL VIDEO HERE If you're not using the free online Harley Ride Planner software to map out your motorcycle trips then you are missing out. Although it's not perfect, we can show you how to utilize it and get the most out of it in our tutorial video. For a free tool, Harley Ride Planner is pretty great. You can plan and map out your entire motorcycle trip and then download it, and upload the turn by turn GPS directions into your Harley Boom!™ Box Infotainment system or other Harley supported external GPS device. There are many helpful tools built into Ride Planner such as easily inserting Harley dealership locations, gas stations, restaurants, hotels, events, scenic locations, and more. You can easily filter what you want to see on the map and what you don't. You can add waypoints and places you want to stop. There are different versions of the map you can view such as normal, classic, terrain, or satellite. You can easily zoom in, zoom out, and drag the interactive map around much like what you'd expect using Google Maps. You can add and drag waypoints around and adjust the route to different roads if you. GET OUR AWESOME HARLEY-DAVIDSON BOOM BOX!™ INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM TUTORIAL VIDEOS HERE! Once you add an address or location to your route you can see the mileage and time between one stop to the next. You can even view a list of turn-by-turn directions. Once you save your trip you can always come back and make changes if necessary. You can share your saved Harley Ride Planner via a link with friends and they can import it into their Ride Planner and upload it into their GPS device. We plan our rides here at Law Abiding Biker™ Media using Harley Ride Planner and then send it out to the entire group, so everyone has the same plans.  While releasing the new Harley Ride Planner desktop online software, they also released a completely overhauled smartphone application for IOS and Android. If you were using the old app called "Ride Planner" you can delete it because it's not supported anymore.  You'll want to download the new official Harley-Davidson smartphone application in your respective app store. Built into the app is Harley Ride Planner along with many different things. The app will sync with your free online Harley account and once you sign in you'll see any saved Ride Planner maps that you created and saved via desktop.  Get the Official Harley-Davidson & Ride Planner Smartphone App! IOS Android Yes, finally on the app you can now select one of your planned and saved rides and get visual and audible turn by turn directions on your smartphone! This was not possible on the old Ride Planner app, so I am super excited about this new functionality. I will say that creating a ride/map on the smartphone app is a bit cumbersome unless you are taking the fastest route between selected locations etc. You can't drag roads to take different routes like using the desktop version. However, there are some tricks I teach you in our Harley Ride Planner tutorial video that will make it possible to create an alternate route and take the roads you want. The app is just not very
