The only guy on YouTube swanky enough to actually be proud he didn’t spend a fortune on tech. Swank on dude! Swank on!

A little tip I picked up after a million miles, wrap 12 inches of saran wrap on your GPS in the rain😉. I prefer using my phone or tablet, it gets real time map updates detours, accidents, speed traps and because I have Bluetooth in the helmet it reminds me if I miss a turn in strong glare.

Been running a NUVI 40LM for years on my KLR -- works perfect

Try dielectric grease on the plug and seal the internals with conformal coating.

I’ve been using a Garmin drive 50 lmt for years on a Harley, BMW GS and now a BMW RT with great results.

Excellent! Thank you for sharing, I needed a "budget friendly" GPS for my project CBR Adventure bike. Also glad to see others printing parts for their bike!

What an amazing day to ride!!! Thanks for giving us tips and keeping us in the know. 🔥

I just bought one for my T7 and works fine. $15 on eBay in the box👍👍👍👍 Thanks for the vid.

You can also get custom vehicle icons and make the car icon a motorcycle or snowmobile.

Its nice to see a adv rider not trying to get you to spend a boat load of cash

I'm doing the same thing, have an old Garmin nuvi 310 that I stick in the top map (?) part of my Wolfman tankbag... no modern fancy features, but works fine.BTW, love those forest trails you got there!

Thought about doing something like this, worried about rain. I guess if they are that cheap and not in rain often or at all why not. Smart

I had a large Garmin (6 inch) on my KLR for a while last year, but the bouncing shook it to death after about a month. I had it in a waterproof case with a ball mount. I'll have to try a 40 LM and see if it holds up any better. I've had great success with my 78s but it is a small screen and has few bells and whistles.

Just ordered a Nuvi 50LM for my WR250R lightweight ADV bike build.

[jorgecorreia]

hi from Portugal man, love your videos! Can you help me? That Gps allows to loading .gpx files? how?

[patmay]

Nice video. And good timing. I just decided to pick up an iPhone 13, but don’t want to use that $$$ piece on my bike, so am thinking of running my old Nuvi 50 that’s been gathering dust. I ordered a cheap Mount set up, and it seems to work, and gives my CB500X a cool look. Now I just have to figure out how it works beyond the basic “type in address and push go” thing. Mmm, wonder if I can find my old manual for it!

I got a 40lm and put some topographic maps on it. Worked great, now sold it and got a 55lm but i am not able to put GPX files inside to follow tracks from wikiloc... That is what i wanted....

[aeronca]

Great and informative video as usual, Ben! What was the name of the double-sided tape you used to attach the M.U.D. GPS Mount to the garmin? I can’t make out what you said. Many thanks!

[shankarbn]

Can you load GPX files for dirt riding and use I for navigation?

[bricetetrick]

Non GPS question!
I have been following your channel for a while now, you ride a lot of what I ride ( as far as trails) I have been on klr's for 10 years or more, is the T7 a big upgrade when riding what you are in this vid?
Thanks
