I have a Nuvi 750 that use on my bike. I use the windshield mount that came with it. It sucks to my RKC shield just fine. I made a safety catch outta parachute cord and looped it around my windshield bag in case the mount decides to let go...It never has.

 

I had read with the bigger SD cards the unit takes longer to boot up. Do you find this is true. I am thinkig about a 8 GB card?

Do you need to download any special software to load the Mapquest routes?

TIA

 

That's me! I had my Nuvi on a Fatboy prior to my Ultra...and have been in quiite a few pouring down rains.
So far, so good...going on three years I guess I have had it.
I know there may be better units...but for the price now-a-days.....
for me, if it breaks, they are cheap enough (in my book) to replace rather easily.
I just rode with 1of2 (Dale) the opther day, and he sems to rather enjoy his so far.
I have mine attached to a RAM mount on the left handle bar and the windshield protects it pretty well while on the go.

if u load alot it will take longer to boot unless u put the songs in folders then all is good.u can get the harley dealer poi download for free on gpspassion forum.the 450 and 550 have a brighter screen that is easier to see in the sun and glove freindly buttons and my older unit will not support itunes so u have to convert your music files to another format.

 

I've also got a 750 mounted on a 09 Classic and I'm wondering how you connect it to the radio?

 

u should load some music on the sd card for the gps then get a jack at radioshack and plugg into the aux jack its on the lower left of your radio under a small rubber plugg then set radio to aux, u need the music on the sd card so can have something to listen too while the radio is set to aux, and be

 

and be VERY carefull the plugg in on the radio is VERY delicate it will break in a heartbeat and is NOT covered under warrenty, i leave a little slack in the cord and zip tie it to the bars so i dont accidentley pull on the cord.

 

I know the gps comes through the speakers if plugged into the aux port, is that the only way to hear the gps other wise? looking at buying one for the SG, but want to hear the tunes as well....

 

got to load the tunes on the gps or switch to radio and keep an eye on the gps.unless u get a gps with on board speaker but youd never hear it at 60.

 

I have the Nuvi 765t from Walmart on mine and its great!
