Got mine two years ago from pcnation.com. Good price and next day delivery for $9.

Be careful not to get sucked into a dirt cheap price that is probably a scam.

Prices are up compared to around Christmas. I picked up a 450 for $320.00. Now they are $400.00+. Same hike for the 550's.

On a side note, Garmin has a resonable flat rate repair service if you don't want to spend the money on new. Mike

I’m glad to hear that someone else is having problems with a Quest II; the only thing mine has ever been good for is getting me lost. My question to you is, after having problems with a Garmin product why would you stay with them?

I have other Garmin GPS units that work great -- I have 2 different NUVO's -- I love them... but they dont have a fairing mount for a NUVO -- and if you know how to make one - I'll pay you

I have 3 quest II's (not the harley version, but Garmin)... and all 3 of mine are good for nothing but getting lost -- i dont know if its because of the vibration of the motorcycle that make them mess up or what.... today I rode my bike 200 miles all interstate because the backroads have cinders and salt -- and i have to keep my nuvo in my pocket because i dont want a handlebar mount (wait, let me clarify - my wife has to keep my nuvo in her pocket and keep an eye on it)

I paid somthing like $500-$800 each -- and they arent worth $100 to me any more -- JUNK
