Hi all, I've been looking into getting a GPS unit for the bike (and car as well, I guess) as a toy which could also be useful at times. Now, here's a company which specialises in this -- but seem a bit expensive !! http://www.adventure-motorcycling.co.uk/ For example: The "base" GPS V they sell for £425 (not including VAT), whereas places like: http://www.gpsw.co.uk/details/prod494.html .... sell it for £389 all inclusive! Anyway, if anyone has any recommendations about kit or UK retailers then please let me know. The GPS V is a unit I have actually played with myself, as a mate has one, but I'm open to alternatives. Thanks, Tris.
GPSW are pretty damned good (and local to me, too!). That's a decent number compared to the average high-street price. Now, if you're wondering about the GPS V, check out the thread entitled "For those unsure about GPS..." (Message-ID:<>)
I know nothing about GPS as I seem to have an inbuilt variation of the CPS [1] system. However, some BMW GS riders talk incessantly about the devices. Check out their forum at http://www.ukgser.com/forums/ . [1] Champ positioning system TM BBear
