Basecamp does not recognize the "legacy" GPS units.

I agree! "Legacy" is Garmin's term.

True, but even my 2000ZR-7 and my 1997 Katana 600 were much smooter than that FZ. I was just expecting it to be a smooth long distance type bike. But I wouldn't ride that thing all day for sure.

Well gents seeing as how I am now between assigned jobs and temporarily in the relief pool I have been called in early for a job that starts Wednesday instead of my regular Friday start. I have to hit the road in the A.M. Will be flying a 407 out of Morgan City, LA for my first 7 days, and who knows what after that. They are trying to build my 407 time before I start my new gig, as the customer usually requires 50 hours in type. They will waive it most likely for me if I get 30 or so.

Enjoy the coming winter storm, I plan to drive out of it tomorrow and watching my temp gauge rise all day.

Just put a order in for a Garmin 465 lmt. Says it has life time maps and traffic. Hopefully it will work good. Set up for truck drivers. Would be cool if it still shows the dirt roads. Hopefully someday i will get a bigger bike and try and find a mount for it.
