Man of Honour
I'm Tom and I have a Kriega addiction...
Brilliant luggage though, just wish it was a little cheaper.

I'm a KTM fanboy and love the super duke, seen the special a few times and its stunning, the Aprilia others something else and is more track focused, horses for courses.
It's incredibly dangerous to use a SatNav like that. That's why misterjingo said he makes it so it's less visible and he won't try to kill himself by over relying on it for bend information.Yeah, I do that quite a lot with SatNav in the car (almost always have Google Maps on, for traffic as well as checking bend severity) which makes me think I could use it more on the bike in a decent visible position.
Now I realise almost everyone will say 'yep, looks silly', but I'm trying to balance practicality (I'm really bad at directions without a SatNav) and not ruining the look of a gorgeous bike.
Obviously tomorrow I can get some better pictures of the look of the whole bike but, what do you think?
I have my tomtom right out of sight. I put a sena 10u in my helmet, synced it via blutooth to the tomtom, and find it much nicer to just use the audio instructions. When visable, I find I keep glancing at the screen to see how severe the corners are, rather than reading the road.
It takes less time than glancing at your speedometer. I don't see it being dangerous when done on a straight bit of road out in the countryside?
As for using the satnav to know what is up ahead, I see no issue at all with this - I do it regularly - I did it on my Europe trip in Belgium
Never ever use a satnav to judge the upcoming corners.
Please be careful using it here. There are a few points I know of where the GPS gets confused and says the hairpin up ahead is a left not a right.
