GPS/Installation

[symplysimon]

<font color="DarkRed"><br />
We have a Garmin Nuvi 760 GPS. It has a larger screen so we've had to narrow it down to where we can mount it. <br />
Wayne purhcased it but refuses to use it proclaiming he is technologically challenged so I'm the designated GPS operator. <br />
<br />
I'm wondering if some of you folks could share what kind of GPS units you have and where you have mounted <br />
them on your Stallions, ....pros/cons, etc?<br />
<br />
We've been so excited about our Stallion but the weather here is too cold and windy for riding. By the time spring rolls around <br />
we should be all set to jump in the saddle again!! <br />
<br />
Blessings!<br />

I do not own a Stallion but if you go to this link there are all kinds of mounts for mounting things. <br />

Have a Tom Tom . bought a 3 point power unit from radio shack for 18 bucks. Comes with all wiring and fuse. I used Velcrow to hold power plug unit for easy removal. I mounted it just below seat. I attached the wire with fuse to accsessery plug under seat which I had to cut off to slpice wires. The power plug unit detaches from the wiring connection under the seat. Easy to unplug when not in use. I used velcrow to secure my Cerious radio, just below steering wheel again with velcrowso i can remov it when I park th Stallion. The antena is also secured with velcro tabs blow winsheild as well as my Tom Tom.

Price is right and no drilling required.<br />

<font color="DarkRed">Sorry I didn't write sooner but Wayne opened the package and had it out in the garage. Today when the weather finally was nice enough to ride I noticed immediately the beautiful headrest! It is really nice and I love the way it attaches!! Whoever made that did a nice job!!<br />
We haven't put the pouches on yet b/c we haven't agreed as to where they should go <img src="images/smilies/smile.gif" border="0" alt="" title="Smile" class="inlineimg" /><br />

Thanks Randy!!<br />

Please also post photos of the pouches even if they aren't yet attached to the Stallion. Where did you get the pouches and the cost would also be appreciated. Thanks.

<font color="DarkRed">Here are the pouches. You'll have to ask Randy/Bazooka what the cost was. I don't have my invoice handy as I'm not at my home computer.<br />
