At my wife’s suggestion / Instance when we bought our Goldwings I got the built GPS (its a Garmin set up) What a life saver I found myself riding a very tired and riding a high way in northwestern MD I came over the top of a mountain to find a sign that the next 23 miles would be grooved pavement. So here I am headed down a mountain on unfamiliar roads and for the next 13 miles 2/3rds of my control surface is gone. Rolled carefully to the next exit. told the Garmin to re route avoiding the highway and was at my daughters dorm 40 minute later having seen 40 miles of the prettiest secondary roads in MD. This year I am buying a portable GPS that can clip on the other bikes.
