I'm surprised the new GT doesn't include a Nav integrated into the main setup thingy. This new Rocket will attract younger riders because it's fast, smaller, tech stuff and isn't intimidating looking like the older Rockets.

I somehow thought it did; but then if it's like my wife Challenger you pay extra for full feature set... which is monthly... :thumbsdown:

I will us the google map program but just check it when I stop. I use the oldest form of navigation techniques, I memorize the next few turns.

What a great idea. Got it. I use GPS the next day to see where I've been. So much more relaxing. Pick out a gentle gravel road and go

So drawing a circle in your left hand with bright red lipstick and pouring beer on it so it has beer breath isn't normal? Asking for a friend.

better off with proper bike gps. I found phone gps ran the phone battery down quicker than it could charge on bike battery

Yeah, my phone uses a tremendous amount of power in Google maps

Any type of nav is hard on a phone battery. If you have the proper charger it will keep up. I've been using my phone more years like this. I also have a Zumo 595 on my other rides and I'll use it for nav and the phone for live radar. It works great.
