I have no idea. Then again, I have no idea what url is bringing you that message, either. The kit is for sale. Perhaps you could tell us where you're seeing that info to the contrary?

Did TomTom discontinue the Rider 550? On the US shopping web site it says "no longer available"... https://www.tomtom.com/en_us/drive/motorcycle/products/rider-550/

It is only in the United States and Canada that Tomtom no longer sells GPS.

And also not in Australia, NZ, some parts of Asia...
Looks like they're only going to focus on Europe now.

If you finally consider upgrading to the Rider 550 World or especially the 550 Premium (recommended), my above quoted website link achieves an extremely good price saving compared to TomToms current RRP on their U.K. site. It’s still an excellent constructed device.
* Mod - advise to move to “Rider specific issues”

Good plan. This one was pretty far afield.

Thanks for info I’ll look to purchasing a new 550 model one other question price difference from £400.00 down to £300.00 is there a reason why such a big difference

The price difference is because the Premium Rider 550 Pack has additional accessories
*Car assembly kit
*RAM anti-theft solution
*Protective carrying case

If you are referring specifically to the Rider 550 World, when it was initially released, TomTom recommended a RRP of £400 in the U.K. - but as is usual after a few years, discounts are available especially when other trade suppliers have purchased in bulk and shifting stock. As @Willy875 states - tempting extras especially the RAM anti-theft solution for a little bit more ££.
