    Well I figured since I might be putting a few miles on the Silver
    Goldwing (over 5000 so far in about a month) that I better invest in a
    GPS for the bike. After looking a few over and checking my bank
    balance I decided to go with the Mio C310X. Theres 5 ole boys up here
    at work that have the same one and they all like it real well. I read
    alot of reviews and they all seemed to give this little unit very high
    marks.

    It has a 3.5 Touch Screen ..comes pre-loaded with U.S. Maps..and is
    also a MP3 player. It has a slot that accepts 2 different types of
    memory cards. This little unit appears to be loaded up with features.
    They have them onsale at Frys Electronics with NO rebate for 198.00
    bucks.

    Yep, I figured it wouldnt be long. It just seems appropriate for a Wing
    Rider to have all the instruments available, instead of Krome.
    One reason, it's hard on the others to keep the Wings in the back.
    Wingers just naturally belong in the front, like in Top Gun, or
    something like that. I have no idea, what I meant here, sounds good
    though. Oh well, glad you gotcha one of them fancy thangs.

    No one got lost last week. We couldnt get lost anyway because we were
    riding with a human map. I thought he got all that straight a few post
    back. Even if we did get lost it wouldnt have mattered..we were just
    riding.

    Dont worry BJ...I have put plenty of Krome on it. I have added some
    more since you last saw it. Next will be the 3/4 helmets with the
    intercom system. You just never get finished buying crap for a
    motorcycle.

    Way to go.
    One cannot get lost, if they dont care if they get lost, when out on a
    Bike Ride.
    G-o-o-d point.
    That'll shut up that smart elic top poster feller.

    Not yet. I went by the Honda shop today when I left work and they had
    nothing to offer in mounts. I did find a place called Ram Mounts. I
    think thats the way I am going to go. Looks something like this..
