And now I've got to spend an additional buck and a half to up date it ? Or, are y'all discussing the optional handlebar mount system the mo-co sells ?

Let me get this straight . . . . . The software updates from the mo-co are free but don't affect the built in nav system ? And now I've got to spend an additional buck and a half to up date it ? Or, are y'all discussing the optional handlebar mount system the mo-co sells ?

Cool ......... 'Cause I wasn't about to anyway. 
I've made it all these years w/o a gps navigating all over the U S and Canada. That's what a tank bag with a map holder is for imho. Heck, I'd sooner velcro my cell phone to the screen ........... Google maps is so much better.

Streets don't change often enough to warrant paying $150 to update the maps IMO. Only time I'd do it is for a major long distance trip and I'd factor that cost into my expenses. Anything else, no reason why you can't pull over and use your phone or use a paper map.
IMHO YMMV

I really hope this doesn't turn into the issue I had with my Toyota FJ Cruiser. It had a built in major brand GPS but I couldn't get updates (paid or otherwise) because Toyota terminated their contract with them. Seems there should be plenty of updates since Q2 2013. Isn't this Q2 2015 now? Two years of road construction in my area has my GPS constantly telling me to get on the highway when I am already on it, lol.
