I am looking at a Garmin Nuvi 760 for my 09 Ultra. Does anyone have experience with this model or would you recommend another model?

 

I'm using it with no problems. Large screen, mP3 player. Will broadcast directions through your radio. It will even find your bike...if you happen to forget where you parked. I switch it back and forth between all my vehicles. I had a Garmin 2720, I think that was the model. Built for motorcycle use. I sold it and bought the 760 for all the features it has. No regrets. If I get caught in a rainstorm I either take it off or cover it. Works great for me.

 

I use a 755T, if you go out to the garmin web site you can compair the different units and see what the differences are between them.

 

What i like in a unit. Large screen, easy to operate buttons (with gloves), ability to preprogram next days towns, MP3 player, a battery inside so i can use it when i'm off the bike.

I recommend buying a real motorcycle GPS that is shock and water-resistant.

Even if you are cost cutting, you can still find inexpensive Garmin 2710/2720/2730/2820 GPS units on ebay and re manufactured unit on GPS sites.

If you get a Nuvi you'll just have another toy to cover or remove when it rains, and I am not aware of a locking mount for them either.

Best of luck.

 

I think the Garmin Zumo 550 or the new 660 has it nailed. Nothing better for a MC application INHO. Check out http://www.zumoforums.com/

 

I have a Nuvi 750. Works just fine on my windshield. You can get 'em refurbed off eBay for about 170 bucks.

 

I use a nuvi 350, and it has been a great unit. I had a 2610 MC unit and I prefer the nuvi.

 

Here is a new spin use it and it works like a charm. I travel a lot for business so I have a need to carry a GPS with me. I have a new blackberry storm and signed up for the VZ navigator 9.99 a month. This think is amazing I no longer need to travel with a device just have my phone with is always on me. This has all the features of a full gps and more include traffic. The thing is it will work with Bluetooth headset so on my bike it works with my Scala Q2 like a charm, I don't even mount it the directions are so well spoken I do not need to look at the screen so it is one less thing to worry about. Maps are always updated with no cost.
