GPS - What to use?

Excellent point regarding Bluetooth!
Been using a Nuvi 3760 for a few years, BUT although it has Bluetooth, it will not connect with helmet communication (Sena, Uclear).
Their Bluetooth apparently work only with the Garmin Zumo models or Tom Tom Rider. I'd like to hear my GPS as well as see it so I ordered a Zumo 660.
Hope I can get used to the small screen (4.3" vs 6") on the Zumo.
 
this is what I have on my R3T, I love it, watch the video you can watch the whole thing or just go to 3:13 to see what is really cool about the Garmin GPS with Bluetooth and Garmin Ecoroute..
 
I bought the Garmin Zumo 550 awhile back paid $750.00 for it, have to say i'll never do that again. One of the main selling features at the time it was water proof.Have had great luck with it and it has never let me down. They say the 665 has satilite capabilities for weather and radio and i saw it $100 cheaper than what i paid for mine.. I learned that if you want a nice cheap GPS go to your local tow truck company and ask the drivers if they have any for sale, you'd be surprised what they have for sale. Powerlet makes all the adapters for the Rocket III.http://www.powerlet.com/shop-by-vehicle/triumph/2005/triumph-rocket-iii-2004-2009/15/433#formtop

I use the sun, moon, stars, and an innate sense of direction to navigate by.




















Then Google maps to get back home.

I was gonna say a the sun, a stick, and if I hit water I turned left for too long, but you already went there...and apparently these fellas are trying to be serious....
 


Yes, the weather map is good but the XM radio sucks. No volume due to a crappy circular disk antenna in my opinion.
 
I use the Garmin Zumo 395 it has extra functions 1 I use and love is the tyre pressure monitor you fit the optional valve caps that relay pressure info to Gps unit and it will alert you if the pressure drops below your preset pressure while riding, this doesnt mean you dont check tyre pressures as normal

Just a side note..... there are gloves you can buy in which the index fingers works with GPS as well as hand helds.
