Author Message   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 01:11 am:        Just a FYI, that flysceen plug happens to have the same connector as the Ulysses power outlet, so if you happen to be tearing your front end apart a few hours for leaving for Buelltoberfest, and need to figure out how to wire in your GPS, and you happen to have a wrecked Uly in your garage with all the wiring spliced onto that power outlet, well then you are in luck   Xl1200r Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 10:50 am:        Old news, Frogman. What kind of GPS are you running?   Chadhargis Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 11:17 am:        I ordered the pins and made a connector for mine. I am using it to power a Powerlet outlet for my GPS and in the near future, some heated grips.   Sparropie Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 02:31 pm:        I use a magnitized needle stuck in a cork, floating in my gas tank. Always points North for me...   Ccryder Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 03:37 pm:        I just have a hard time keeping the match lit a speed so I can see down into the tank. How did you solve that issue? ;+}   Xl1200r Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 04:42 pm:        Jeweler's torch.   Ccryder Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 07:36 pm:        That would work, NOT!!!! I've been running a GPS for over 150,000 miles and they beat the heck out of the cork and map technology (even with the torch);+}   Xl1200r Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 07:44 pm:        Yeah, but I bet they aren't nearly as exciting! I've been on the GPS game for a few years now myself and won't go back. It's just too easy, especially when you can plan a custom route ahead of time.   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 10:09 pm:        Zumo 550, it did fabilous, I am in Virgina on my way to Buelltoberfest in Georgia.   Xl1200r Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 10:43 pm:        Frog - I stopped in VA on my way down to MBV... where are you exactly? I have the 550 and love it, though I just wired it up straight into the accessory plug. How's the CR for comfort for you?   Froggy Posted on Wednesday, September 30, 2009 - 10:59 pm:        VA is a big ass state, it takes forever to cross it. I am in Roanoak right now. Don't tell my Uly, it has been replaced as my favorite and most comfortable tourer.   Xl1200r Posted on Thursday, October 01, 2009 - 07:33 am:        Nice - I stopped in Charlottesville on my way down, but you start a bit further south than me. I had a second floor room, though - no way to bring the bike in. Good to hear the CR is as comfortable for you as it is for me. You still going put the clubmans on it? Ride safe.
