Anyone use an Iphone for navigation? If so, how do you mount?
Dyna Glide ModelsSuper Glide, Super Glide Sport, Super Glide Custom, Dyna Glide Convertible, Super Glide T-Sport, Dyna Glide Police, Dyna Switchback, Low Rider, Street Bob, Fat Bob and Wide Glide.
I use the mapquest app and wear ear buds. I used to have a charger on my bike, but now i just carry a Mophie. Works great, I can't imagine looking at the navigation screen while riding.
Oh yea, and phone goes in my jacket/pants pocket.
I've also bought some cheap "touch screen gloves" cut off the tips and have glued them onto my riding gloves
I use this, road from MD to the Deals gap and back with it mounted to my handle bars between the risers, never had an issue at all. http://amzn.com/B002PEPA86
I use a Lifeproof weather resistant case and Lifeproof handlebar mount on my left bar. I have a Belkin Tunecast FM interface so the iPhone plays through my radio and the lighter plug has a USB receptacle to keep my phone charged. I use reusable tie wraps to keep things neat.
This gives me turn by turn voice navigation, moving maps, satellite radio, my iTunes, phone, email and internet, which comes in handy for restaurant and motel reviews when I'm on the road. Excluding the phone, that's a $150 answer to a question not all riders are asking! Most of the time I ride without this stuff or even turning on the radio but for long distances on the slab it does help pass the time.
Get Google maps and a bluetooth headset. Then keep it in your inside jacket pocket. It'll still play tunes and bounce back and forth between maps and tunes. That's what I do. I've got Verizon and an Android Bionic
