Caretta Navigation Kit - Android Motorcycle Sat-Nav (Detachable) It’s not a tablet. The Caretta Navigation Kit is a purpose-built Android sat-nav system for motorcycles with Google Play Store support. It is designed for riding first — with a detachable quick-release solution so you can remove the device in seconds. What’s Included in the Kit Caretta navigation device Dedicated cradle for charging and data connection to the bike AMPS mounting base for standard 12mm GPS bracket (supports landscape and portrait) Universal power cable with 6mm battery loops and fuse box Why Caretta Caretta combines rugged, motorcycle-specific hardware (also suitable for quads and side-by-sides) with the versatility of Android. Unlike traditional sat-navs, it supports the Google Play Store, so you can run your preferred navigation apps just like on an Android tablet or phone. Done riding? Detach it and use it for everyday tasks: messaging, email, web browsing, Spotify, Netflix, games and more.
