GPS mounted at handlebar

[aussie59_imp]

nice unit, how did you tap in to the CB's power for it?
I've always wanted one of those but in reality, I tend to do mostly 60 to 90 minute rides around local back roads, does not really matter if I know where I'm going, I'll turn up somewhere on a road I know :-)

I run the cable from the GPS device in parallel to the main cable thru the frame under the fueltank. The cable bundles power supply, audio, mic and input for traffic info receiver.



The power cable I connected under the seat under the toolbox at the fuse case. The minus is connected directly to the battery, the plus is crimped to the cable from fuse 3 (brake light). So it is switched by ignition.

Also under the seat are the ends of Zumo audio, micro and traffic info receiver input, which I don't use.



When I use the audio output of the Zumo, I just let the audio cable hang out left of the seat and plug in the connector of my inear headset. The cable of the headset I run from the neck under my jacket. Just have to be aware, that I'm connected, when I get off the bike.

I could also use a wifi headset, which is also supported by theZumo 660. However, I don't like to care about empty batterie packs in the headset and also the sound quality of an inear cable headset is much better.

When I go out here in my home area, I also don't use the Garmin most of the time. But when I do tours, like end of this March for a week in Spain, it is really valuable help to plan the tour at home or in the hotel at the PC, download it to the device and then just follow the tour at your bike.
