http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/5531/dsc00432obl.th.jpg fitted today went on ok with very little work ,it has a load of padding to stop the vibes killing your satnav,and my tomtom 500 fits in no probs , very well made with afew extra pockets on it aswell |
looks very neat, and fits great by the looks f it. was it expensive?
|
hi it fits great and think most satnavs will fit in it and theirs loads of padding to take up most or all of the shock and vibes i couldnt find the money for a bike satnav like the zumo/tomtom rider and this was a cheap way around it at �36.00
|
Looks very good, I'd be tempted to get one even if I did have a TomTom rider or Zumo 550 as I hear the vibes on the Ten are not too kind to them anyway.
Is there any extra storage in there for anything else (mobile phone etc?) Edit: Managed to answer my own question. It does have a pocket for keys, Mobile phone etc accordign to givi. http://www.givi.co.uk/Accessories-fo...cessories/S850 |
yep theirs a fair bit of space/pockets for phones keys etc , ive got a garmin 2610 thats water proof and for the bike but its a pain in the ar8e to use and the tomtoms easy
|
Can I ask where you bought/ordered it from?
Also, is there access for the power lead to be used? franksy |
yep theirs a zip on the bottom for the power lead to fit in , i got it via kawaski newcastle their a givi dealer
|
You'll have to lets us know how ya get on with this. I'm seriously thinking about a nav for the bike just cannot bring mesel to pay �400 for a bike specific one.
Becker do one thats semi waterproof for �180, but by the time you buy a cable,holder etc..... |
ive been out on the bike over the bank hol weekend and used it all the time not just to find places just turned on , was out in the rain for about 20 mins and it was very heavy its was bone dry no probs , the touch screen worked ok really good, as you say 4 or 5 hundred is taking the p*ss when satnavs are now cheap as chips
|
I've been debating whether a car satnav would do the job - all in all I'd say yes, but I really don't like having to look down at them, or have most of the car ones got a headphone jack so you can listen to them?
|
i can plug head phones in to mine and bluetooth aswell (tomtom 500)
|
I bought one of these a couple of years ago for �80, but now it's cheap as chips at less than �50.
http://www.ebuyer.com/product/144106 I've also hacked it to run tomtom aswell. |
I was looking for something like this, i would like to have a GPS on the bike but just cannot justify having 2 GPS units that cost an arm and a leg. I have just been doing a bit of trawling through the net and found this little bad boy
http://www.mountguys.com/product_p/r...q6-tomtom2.htm looks pretty good to me and i may just have to get the credit card out.
Cheers Jim |
Yeeehaaaaaaa, just stumbled across this thread, I love this idea. I can use my car satnav, get a charger sorted and I have my bike navigation sorted (as well as a proper map). Its so obvious that I did not think of it. Thats a bit more money saved cheers.
