Missing the waypoint
When a route is started and a waypoint is missed along that route, the GPS will continue to try and route you back to that waypoint no matter how far you travel. Does anyone know if the missed waypoint can be canceled some way so you can continue on the planned route? thanks.

How did you do this? I couldn't click on the waypoint on the map to select it. Is it in the "Destinations" button on the current route?

Well this is how I do it, I use Garmins Basecamp to create my route and when I make waypoints I will number them so that they will display in order. Then you can go to saved and choose the next one without knowing the name of it.

I know I've read a lot about how the GPS sucks on these new bikes, but until yesterday I had no idea how bad it was.

I encourage everyone with the new GPS to Call Harley and let them know the problems your having with it. If enough people complain maybe they will get off there dead *** and fix the problems. Contact H-D Customer Service: 1-800-258-2464

This was posted by me on another Harley Forum website a few weeks ago.
I bought a 2014 Ultra Mar. 1. I didn't find out about the insane 9 wave point limitation until after the fact. After calling Harley customer service they informed me they had several complaints about the GPS wave points and the maps data base being 2 years out of date. They said they are working to increase the wave point numbers. I suggested they remove the limitation completely. In our discussion I informed them I had rides with up to 138 wave points to keep the GSP on the planned route.
I told them I was very disappointed with the GPS. (it was a pile of junk until they remove the limitation and update the GPS date base). BTW the cost for a one time update is $149.00 per the website. The revision date is 12 2012. (unacceptable) I informed them I was going to mount my old Zumo 665 on my new bike (Which has free life time map upgrade).
Theirs way around the limitations. Create several routes with only 9 points including start and finish. You can use Base camp or Ride planner, save the route as hdroute.gpx file. Rename the file and copy it onto a USB flash drive and load it into the bike GPS via the USB port. I number them 1,2,3,4,5 etc.
As the first route is completed start the next route. I position the finish point and the start of the next route a couple of miles apart to give me time to select the next route.
I hope this helps
