I might be being a bit dim here, but what benefits do I get for my six hundred or so quid?
I’ve got a shiny new 1250GS, an iphone, and Sena 5 headset in my helmet. The nagivation seems to work using my BMW Connected app, and if that winds me up, I can just link the iphone to the Sena and use Google directions, as I used to with my F650 & Guzzi.
The downside of the current setup is that the TFT is displaying nav data rather than the usual stuff, and I guess I’m dependent on having a phone signal to use google, and I guess that might start to cost money if I tootle off to Europe, specially post B...t.
I’d like to take the Guzzi to Mandello next September, so buying a Nav VI (or a second hand V?) to use on the GS, and purchasing a second Garmin mount to allow me fit it to the Guzzi would be a way forward, but is it worth it?
What does the assembled wisdom recommend?
Cheers
Simon
