Right, I've finally decided to take the plunge and invest in a GPS the question is which one.
I'm not really sure I'll make full use of one but like the concept (boys toys, I know).
I'm off to France on the bike very soon and want it particularly for that trip however I also want to use it in the car.
I've, obviously, looked at the Tom Tom Rider but feel that £499 is a lot of dosh especially when I'll then have to pay an additonal €129 for the France map.
Maplin have a Tom Tom Go 700 on special for £359.99 at the moment with UK postcode maps and European address to address maps.
Does anyone have any idea whether this will be suitable for occasional motorcycle use, on the understanding that it's not waterproof of course? Any suggestions for protecting such a unit from the elements? I'll be using this mainly on my K1200RS so the screen should protect the unit from direct forces, wind, etc...
Alternatively, any other suggestions for suitable units and other related guidance would be much appreciated.....
Many thanks in anticipation,
Gerry
