I ran across a new Farkle yesterday that I thought was interesting and useful. I use a Garmin GPS Zumo 595 which is a dedicated motorcycle unit that is truly waterproof and also has in internal TPMS system which I really like. I recently learned that Garmin no longer offers the TPMS sensors so when mine shoot craps I will need to find an alternate system. Also after all these many years the display on the unit is faded badly after a 24/7 duty cycle.
Here is a dedicated motorcycle GPS display system that like the Garmin is truly waterproof. It uses a different approach to functionality however. Instead of having each function integral to the display unit, it uses your favorite apps from your phone via bluetooth. I know many of you use your phone and Google Maps for navigation and so did I at first but a standard auto GPS is not waterproof and covering it up with a Ziploc bag seldom keeps it high and dry.
This new system will use a TPMS app from your phone, along with weather, Waze, music, GPS mapping, cell phone, voice dialing, Bluetooth to helmet comm, etc., pretty much anything on your phone using Android Auto and also Iphone.
