Default Navigation system

Does anyone know if you can upload custom routes into the new radio with the Navigation system? If so how do you do it? I have my routes in GPX form.

I can't figure out how to do this, Went into Navigation and hit menu, hit Import had my route on a thumb drive and plugged into the usb cable. My routes are in GPX file format. It did not pick them up, do I need to make a folder to put them in? When I did it on the Zumo I needed a folder titled Gamin with a sub folder titled GPX for the GPS to find them. Do I need to do something like that with the Harley Nav system?

No. The GPX files must be in the root directory of the USB drive you are using.

Go back and read post #2.
There is a link to a video that explains the process very well.

Forum member FinalShot created the video, and if you follow the instruction he listed it will work!
