How to export GPX files to Zumo XT without recalculation
-
It sounds to me that people who want to avoid their navigation device recalculating the route they planned are actually looking for turn-by-turn navigation on a track rather than on a route.
Unfortunately, very few navigation devices support this. Most devices that offer track-based turn-by-turn navigation are designed for running or hiking and rely on dedicated file formats that contain both the track and the navigation instructions.
For motorcycle navigation, the only solutions I know that provide true turn-by-turn navigation on a plain GPX track are DMD2 and OsmAnd. Of the two, DMD2 is much more intuitive and easier to use, whereas OsmAnd offers similar functionality but comes with a significantly steeper learning curve.

100% agree!
Another indicator: nailing down the route with plenty of obsolete SPs to make sure it keeps its original shape, even when it's recalculated.For motorcycle navigation, the only solutions I know that provide true turn-by-turn navigation on a plain GPX track are DMD2 and OsmAnd.

I would add Stegra.io — it also offers two types of track navigation: either based on a route calculated on top of the track (similar to MRA’s approach), which provides TBTs like “turn left onto xyz street”, or purely based on the track data with simplified TBTs like “slightly left”.
Most users think track navigation is only suitable for off-road, but that's often based on a misunderstanding; it also works really well for on-road.
