GPS questions
I want to buy a gps for the RG. I have had an OLD basic Garmin unit in my truck for several years that has served me well. Can you choose your own route on the newer units? Mine just takes me the shortest way which is usually by interstate. I would like to be able to plan my own route. I have looked at a couple online that includes satalite radio (with a separate antannae?) I have the stereo system on the RG so I am not really interested in that part of it. Any suggestions on a reasonably priced unit? Thanks, Suey

Harley's Ride Planner, for example, has a button to synch your route with the Zumo. Works great.

Even most of the older type will. The newer zumo's are really great. I have the 660 and love it. If you check around you should be able to pick up a 660 for less than a 550 costs.
I think I paid $500 for mine
You can also check with deals on some older units and save big bucks that will also allow you to add routes form the pc. I do not add routes to my 660 from my pc. The 660 maps and features make it so easy to add a route it is not needed. When I stop or get read to start the day I just search and add a route, takes about 3-4 min...
If you want a custom route then I use the mapsource and send it to the 660
