    What GPS?

    Time to revive this thread. I am looking for a navigation easy to use GPS for my 650GS. One where I can put in way points and be able to back track a route. I see mention of Garmin so far. Particular the Zumo model designed for bikes, and other standard Garmin GPS's.

    Lurker intro

    I guess I also suffering a mid life crisis!  ;D Funny thing you only start enjoying adventure once you have an established job, have money to go having fun when you in your mid life period. It is not a crisis, just an opportunity to go adventuring.
