heres what i do. my GPS has a REALLY long battery life. so i just put it in my tank bag. it has a clear pocket on the top for a map. i just put my GPS in there instead.

That's freaking sweet dude!!!
You do that yourself? Stupid Louisiana alls we can have is white leds :cry:

i think thats every state in the US

u can't have yellow blue red or orange i think

youre allowed to have yellow and amber only while driving.
if you have any othre color while driving youll get a ticket. BUT it doesnt say you cant have them on your bike.
the catchis that you bike has to be parked to display the lights. =\
dumbbbbbbbest rule everrrr. lol

In louisiana white is allowed while driving but yeah you're right about all the other stuff... Mega ghey, but i think it has something to do with emergency vehicles or something so... Necessary evil?

Just a heads up:

I bought a cheap-o tomtom 125 yesterday, and the total was $145. After I got home, I checked online, and sure enough, bestbuy is now seling the 125 for $99, AND you get a $10 bestbuy giftcard as a bonus.


Sooooooooo, you get the tomtom 125 for $107 out the door, and a $10 gift card to spend on a 4gb thumb drive or whatever.

FYI - the 125 comes with the charger, suction mount (looks like a good one) , and i used it yesterday for a few hours running around. it was right 99.9% of the time, has a BIG speaker that you can hear on the bike at below 50 mph, and has a pc connect (usb) so you can create POI, and share them.

I thought i wanted a waterproof gps forever, until i realized the more i spent the faster i would drop it/lose it ;)

2 cents :)
