Default Harley e-book Road Atlas

I have the Harley-Davidson Road Atlas, and it is excellent, as it highlights the best motorcycling roads!

However, it weighs almost exactly 3 pounds!! And, consumes 9.25" x 11" x 0.75" or 76 cubic inches.

On a "lightweight" tourer, like my 2014 Breakout which has to act as my touring bike until I can afford 2 bikes, BOTH weight and cubic inches are significant since I can carry only one bag - the HD rolling luggage bag slipped over my sissy bar.

Does anyone know if Harley, or anyone else, offers an electronic version of the Road Atlas, that "marks" scenic roads in some manner? If so, will it load onto an iPad with Retina screen?

While not an H-D atlas, Rand McNally is one of the top map manufacturers when it comes to road maps. I have an H-D atlas so I know what you mean, hope this helps.

Thanks! This will be my backup if I cannot find a motorcycle-specific e-road atlas!

If you or someone you ride with has an iPhone this app is apparently pretty good. Have it installed but haven't used to it yet: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/grea...347927456?mt=8
