Nice bike.

Did you get a GPS with the bike? The BMW Navigator is made by Garmin. The latest model, the II, is a 2610 model with 512 mb of storage and a BMW specific wiring harness. It is very nice. You can get a generic 2gb CompactFlash card that will work with it. The 2gb card is big enough to load all of the maps from the CD. You can also get a generic CompactFlash card reader with a USB connection to load the maps quickly. It takes longer to load if using the GPS unit with your PC.

It came with the BMW Navigator which I see is a Garmin Street Pilot II. I sure appreciate advise and help. This bike is a lot different that my airheads.
