As said above either the Garmin Zumo 550 or a Street Piolot 2730 if you can find a new one.

I have the 2730 and love the XM radio. I ride with headphones/earplugs for both sound protection and Music enjoyment.

Garmin software seems to be the best functioning out there right now.

As said before will be differing opnions but I am almost 60 and don't really care for a lot of new high tech stuff .. but this Garmin I have was a total No brainer just turn it on and follow simple few steps and was all set and it's dead on the money. Took it down back roads thought I only knew and it spotted every crossroad correctly and got to find out that my Speedo on the new Bike is dead on as well, tells you how much time you have left to your destination.. Only regret I have is didn't get one years ago...

I have used Garmin/Lowrance GPS products for several years in my boats....They are the best, with the best customer service out there! Would highly recommend them!

I just picked up a Garmin nuvi 200 for $97 on Black Friday. Never thought about owning a GPS but for that price I couldn't resist. Strictly an impulse buy. I went to the Garmin website after buying it and started comparing all of the models to see what the difference was. I already knew about the Zumo 450 and 550 but there are so many more models each with slight differences. Seeing what they (the differences) are now if I like using a GPS I will probably want to upgrade later. If not this one will get me from point A to point B when needed.
