Mine's a Street Pilot III. I have read a review of later models using touch screens which suggest that they are difficult to operate while wearing gloves - so it might be worth checking other models out. Or maybe other users here have feedback on this issue. RocketTodd has a Garmin but I'm not sure which model.

Is it important I can operate during riding ? (slow speed ofcourse)

I'm aiming for a small model 8)

Garmin brand it will be!

@anddean do you have any phots of your positioning of the Streetpilot as
I use a Garmin Streetpilot III had it a couple of years and use a RAM mount on my FJR have bought a ram mount for the rocket but have yet to find a place I am happy to fit it to the bars... plus it is quite a big GPS.

here is a link to get the Ram mounts in the UK
http://www.gpsw.co.uk/results.html?Skip=0&&SearchTerms=ram&OBDisp=&OrderBy= I have used this firm for a couple of years and find them very reliable and easy to deal with - speedy delivery too.

check this GPS system out it looks good and it incorporates a bluetooth phone connection http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/tomtom-rider.php it comes complete with universal mounting kit and is reputed to be weatherproof. price and where to buy in the UK http://www.gpsw.co.uk/details/prod2822.html

I have many mates on the FJR who use the StreetPilot 2610 to good effect and it also has a touch screen and is far superior to the StreetpilotIII as we have ridded side by side through Germany, Austria, Switzerland and France and the 2610 refreshes quicker and is able to route more effectively...

We use the TOM TOM GO700's in our company cars and they work really well too but I have not used the TOM tom Easy Rider. so any feedback welcome.
