howdy peeps and peepinas, ive just bough a garmin streetpilot i3, its fab, just what i need, its practical, small, and fits on either my tank, or screen, or i can fit it in my tankbag map pocket!! very good value for money, i got the ex display one for £89.99!!! bargain. i used it tonight on the vespa, its great, i even found my way to the petrol station!!, so no more lost me!!!
who owns a gps, and if so how do you rate it? what does it offer?
I have both a Garmin Quest and Quest2. The Quest was superb, but sadly was corrupted during a PC download (I do not know why). I could not get it sorted and so bought the Q2.
The Q2 is dreadful. It loses reception at the drop of a hat, sometimes switches off and is too slow to redraw maps / plan routes. If you accelerate hard on the bike, that confuses it too.
I have a dreadful sense of direction and need GPS just to get home from my random ride outs on the smaller A and B roads (i.e. let’s go left here and see where it goes or that looks like a good road, I will go down it).
