    Garmin 590LM Group Buy

    Within the last month I purchased a refurb for that price. DANG!

    New 2013 at a dealership

    Yeah, I've not had any luck dealing with World of Powersports. I went in with CASH in my hand and made decent offers on 2 & 3 year old FJR's that are brand new and they would not take my money. Guess that's why their floors are packed with brand new bikes that are several years old. They will...

    Best route creation software - by far

    Ed, I printed out the Agenda and plan to go through that. It looks like it will really make things "click" so to speak. Appreciate that piece as well. Being the leader in the Motorcycle GPS industry, I never understood why Garmin can't create a simple to use program without spending hours of...

    What did you do to your FJR today?

    Today I got my Garmin 590 mounted on the bike and my Givi V47. Ready for a trip, just need to plan and go!

    EOM 2016 - Wytheville Virginia on September 22-25, 2016 - Ramada Inn

    Thinking about attending. My last EOM was Johnson City, TN. but that's because I didn't have a Feej. From the last few posts, I assume there are some decent rooms left? I don't want to wake up next to a trucker if I can prevent it.

    Seats Stock vs Sargent vs Corbin

    I can't speak about the Corbin but what I've read, your summary is right on. I'm 6'-2" and have the Sargent Seat in the higher seat position. It's perfect for me all around along with a medium height V-Stream windshield.

    Garmin Zumo 590LM

    That's interesting and I didn't know that about the screens. The newest model (595) has the "transflective" screen as well so this must be the new thing. I remember my 550 not being so great in the sun either but I don't really look at the screen all that much, just listen for directions...

    Garmin Zumo 590LM

    I ordered one yesterday from FactoryOutletStore. Same price...great deal! Update: I got an email from FOS and they are backordered even though it says IN STOCK on their website. I called and cancelled and just ordered from GPSCity. Supposed to ship tomorrow, hopefully they don't hose me...

    They Need to Hear it From Ya Today

    OP, well said. We are living through some ridiculously crazy times right now. Makes me a little nervous to be out on the bike alone but I still do it.

    I'm back and need another FJR

    Update: Our reconciliation didn't last and I'm officially/legally single, but I bought a slightly used 16A model with 1200 miles. Bitter sweet!

    Garmin Zumo 660LM - Newly Overhauled - Good Price - SOLD OUT!

    I pulled the trigger on the 590LM refurb. I went ahead and purchased the extra 2 year warranty for $45 to give me 3 years. Fingers crossed.

    2016 MotoGP on US TV

    Still pissed about this whole lack of coverage deal. No MotoGP, Superbike, nothing! I keep getting emails from MotoGP for VideoPass....DELETE! 40billion channels covering the election nonsense but we can't get one normal sports channel to cover motorsickle racin'.

    Proud new owner - 2014 ES

    Wow, that is quite the find. Congrats on the new ride!

    Garmin Zumo 660LM - Newly Overhauled - Good Price - SOLD OUT!

    I see they have a 590LM refurbished $200 less than a new one. Back when I had a 550 I started having issues and paid $100 I think to get a refurbished replacement. The replacement was worse than my original one. They replaced the second one free and it worked but had some gremlins for sure...
