GPS Advice
Garmin 2730 - has MP3 player, plugs in to HD audio. YOu can listen to your tones, have it route you and it will interrupt the music to give you directions. you can also store books on it for long trips, my wife likes that. It's now out of production, so ebay can provide you one at a great price. Get the cycle gadget website for mounting.
I've used a Garmin 330 (w/ ram mount) for around a year now (recommended by others). Not water proof, but a baggy solves that problem. Doesn't cost an arm and a leg, either. The maps are good. I don't have bluetooth, MP3, etc, so I don't need the more expensive GPSs.
This summer I plan to ride to Corinth, MS to see the Historic Civil War sites there, and I'll be using it.

I use a cheap Garmin Etrex Legend and RAM mount and it does a great job. Everything is as the crow flys not street per street, but that is why i like it so much. I have about 190 invested into this system (2 years ago).
I like my GPSMAP 76. It doesn't talk or give directions but for the price it is great. I have been using Garmin for years as a Pilot, in the military and outdoor activities.
I have a Zumo 450 and really like it. Theonly problem is it comes with a motorcycle mount and power cord, no car adapter,if you want to use it the truck/car you have to buy a suction cup windshield mount ($100.00). I put a cigarette plug from Radio Shack on the motorcycle power wires so I could use it in my truck as well as my 06 FLHT/I www.gpscity.com had the best prices when I bought mine.

Before you but a TomTom, go to zumoforums.com and do a search on tt rider or tomtom. It does NOT get good reviews there. And it seems that several of the folks there have first hand experience. Love my Zumo. I'd buy it again at twice the price.
I recommend the Harley GPS system that comes standard on the 07SE Ultra. This system works with your stereo and works like a champ. Just returned from a 2500 mile road trip, it "talked" me thru the LA freeway system, never needed to look down, just listened as "she" told me when to turn, what freeways to take and gave me plenty of notice. I love the system.
