Here are a few pictures of my eBag set-up in case anyone is considering a similar set-up. This is still a works in progress...
In this first pic you can see the overall layout.
The Garmin Streetpilot C550 GPS has blue tooth to the phone and a 2GB SD card for mp3s. The cell phone pairs with the GPS so I can see incoming calls and accept or reject them from the GPS screen. No wiring needed to the phone either so I could keep it in my pocket or inside the bag when raining and I can run a charger cord to it for really long trips. The iPod, which is cabled, is my 2nd music option. It holds 10x more music (20GB) and the sound quality is a tad better than the GPS.
You can see the helmet headset cables coming out of the bag between the zippers. The curly one goes to me, the short straight one hooks up to a curly extension to my pillion. The lighter color cable is a 3.5mm sound connection that I added to the Motocom as an option for when using ear speakers.
Side view shows the cabling and power connection.
3 cables to the GPS (stereo audio, mike and power), the power cable, and the audio cable to the iPod when in use. I also have a Motorola FRS radio that goes up on the right brake fluid reservoir that isn't shown (you can see the clip it pops onto) and a PTT switch for it that you can see mounted on the left side. Once I get everything settled I'll put some spi-wrap around the cables to keep them tidy.
I like using this small Bagster bag because it stays far enough back from the bars that they never touch, even though I have HeliBar risers on them. It also unclips from the tank cover in about 2 seconds for refueling or removal.
And here's the inside of the bag:
The new starcom unit will fit in place of the Motocom on the back of the lid. The 3 port DC power unit and excess power cords I just have laying in the bottom of the bag for now. May try to find something neater later. Maybe not. There is plenty of extra room in the bag for other stuff.
