I use a spot tracker on all big trips. Just mount it to yourself if riding solo and not somewhere on the bike. Worst case scenario you likely won't be near the bike or ambulatory.

Also I have used 2 handlebar phone mounts from Amazon and 1 I picked up at laconia bike week. Both clamp onto the handlebars and then have almost a rubber band that goes over each corner of the phone. Ridden thousands of miles, highway speeds, Mt. Washington auto rode and such. Never had a problem. My friend had his IPhone on the same mount for the same 2k mile trip on a suzuki savage 650... that thumper has vibration.

I use Waze generally but the app "Cali Moto" is designed specifically for motorcycles. You can choose routes by how curvy you wanna get. You/other users can also save their tours so you can go for a ride out and back or loop that is in the app on the weekend. Saved with ratings, details, photos.

It also measures your speed, elevation, lean angle and most importantly saves your track. I got it originally to track my route on big trips so I could look back and see where I actually was on a map. Really good for finding your way back to those cool places you find on accident out on the road. [Image: 831b36a11943688870c1ae2d550102df.jpg]
