I have become a GPS guy. I have always had a thing for maps, and they still have a place in my heart (and in my tank bag). However, a GPS can be a huge benefit to a touring, off-road, or adventure rider. Simply put, a GPS opens new navigational horizons.
The problem is that a motorcycle is not a perfect environment for a vulnerable electronic device. Motorcycle-specific GPS units are deigned for the rigors of motorcycle duty, but what do you do if you want to use your auto GPS on our bike? The answer just may be in the Givi S850 Universal GPS Holder.
The S850 enables the use of a wide variety of standard GPS units on your bike. The nice thing is that the holder does not require a permanent mount to be affixed to the bike. The unit uses a Velcro strap system in its attachment to the handlebars. The S850 incorporates both a pocket for the GPS (with a power cord exit), as well as a supplemental compartment for extras like keys or a wallet. All of the zippers on the unit are waterproof and there is also a rain cover.
The Givi S850 retails for $72.
