Hey guys (including girls!). I'm thinking about getting a GPS unit - for spring, anyway. What's the best make/model to get, and why? Is a color unit preferable? Where's the best place to buy/order from, and what's the best mounting set-up - and where to buy it also?
Thanks in advance for the info!

Re: GPS Units - what's best?
I use Garmin units for work and they seem to be the most user friendly and have the most available add-ons. Wal-mart is probably the cheapest to buy from but if you want a lesson in one models features vs another then go to MEC and talk to the person behind the counter. They are very well informed and I do believe they offer courses on how to use them.crazy2wheeler wrote:Hey guys (including girls!). I'm thinking about getting a GPS unit - for spring, anyway.

Since MEC is actively anti-dirt-bike, why go there?
In any case, you'll get better info from GPS Central
