    What's the model of the Garmin GPS?
    I have a couple of mates with Garmin Zumo 550's which seem to be really good particularly as they are designed for motorcycles first and foremost and are easier to operate and are more practical as such but geez Louise do you pay for the pleasure!!!

    Anyone used the Tomtom Rider v2? How does it compare with the Zumo? A little cheaper than the Zumo but still flamin' expensive...
