    GPS

    I am looking for a decent GPS for a 2006 Ultra Classic...I have the advanced audio system with XM radio and Bluetooth installed as extras. I was wondering if the GPS upgrade for the advanced audio system was worth the money or is there a better system out there.

    I am looking for voice directions and possibly bluetooth oriented to hear in my helmet.[b]

    I have a Garmin Nuvi also. Ram has a very nice handle-bar mount for them also. Much cheaper that way plus I can use in my car when not on the bike.

    here's a link to the rino 530...

    kinda looks like a swiss army knife of communications...

    Re: GPS

    a guy we traveled with this past summer had a garmin zumo. it worked great. if you notice, most all of the aftermarket gps units have larger, full color displays. you've seen how big the screen is on your radio. i wouldn't be able to read it....

    I use the Garmin Zumo and it is great! It comes with both the bike and car mount and has all the latest features!

    Re: GPS

    If I was to buy another GPS for motorcycle use, it would be the Zumo. The Zumo is made for motorcycles. It's waterproof and has a replaceable battery which means you can carry a spare.
    Nuvi doesn't have a replaceable battery and isn't waterproof.


    I almost cut my hair, it happened just the other day.
    It was gettin' kinda long, I could've said it was in my way.
    But I didn't and I wonder why, I feel like letting my freak flag fly
