What GPS do you have?

I have the Nuvi 700 series, just took a weekend trip on the scoot and it worked great. I have a trickle charger connection hooked up to the battery, so I got an sae to cigar adapter to power the Nuvi mounted in my RAM mount. No vibrtion issues, had a ziplock baggie and some zipties in case it rained. However RAM now has a nice waterproof box for the Nuvi's that work with the touch screen.

I had no problem with using the touch screen with my gloves. A little issues with shading it, but because I had it hardwired, I could turn the back light up.

I have it mounted off my bars just below my speedo so I can still see my tach. It was great for unriden back roads and knowing when tight corners were approaching.

The 700 series is nice cause you can store several trips to it in memory.
