    Default GPS cover boot

    I am buying a used 2011 RT limited. I haven't picked it up yet. The dealer showed me how to hook up the gps. I don't remember him taking off the boot cover. I have looked everywhere online incase I need to buy one. No luck. Anyone have any ideas where I can just buy the boot, if I need to. Thanks

    Check the travel case... If dealer showed you they may have been nice & put it inside. Fyi it aint much to look @. If nothing else carry a rubber glove around, or good size baggie & rubberband.(redneck fix) You should only need if you dont have the gps mounted.

    Default Hi Samewok

    Hi Samewok. Did you happen to trade to Pitbull a couple of days ago? If so, it's awesome you found me. I'm in the process of buying you old bike. He showed me how to hook the gps up. Couldn't remember him taking the cover off, so assumed there wasn't one. The RT limited didn't have a decal on the front. They told me a guy in Arkansas traded it in

    Yes, lots of lighting. Soft handle grips, wood grain console, sticker on back trunk, 31,000 miles I think. Think he said the person decided to keep the luggage.

    When they gave me my new bike I gave the service guy the cover and the front rolling
    luggage. So I hope they give them to you.

    I have one I just bought. It cost me $17.95. I could mail it in a padded envelope if you are interested in it.
    Give me a call if you want kit.

    I will ask them. The salesman may not have known. Were there any for the back & sides? I don't know what they have when you buy it new. Also i've been reading that a anti sway bar is good. I'm thinking you have them on it. Also for insurance, does it have a alarm. I promise I won't bug you with questions.

    It does not have an alarm. It has the sway bar and links.
    Of my accessaries the only thing you didn't get was the vented windshield.

    Nice to see that small world find. Guess pitbull may have removed the eagle decal to make better sale. Guessing is one pictured in your avatar samewok? So question still remains did you get or find the gps boot?

    I don't have the bike yet, but samewok said it's in the trunk. They probably just had it off

    Just a comment about the rubber cap. It should be considered decorative only and should only be installed after the Garmin weather cap. The rubber boot from Can Am offers little to no water protection. The mount is only watertight when the Garmin weather cap is installed or when the gps is installed.

    Thanks for the info. Not sure how everything works yet. I've chatted with the previous owner & he said everything is in the bag. I don't have the bike yet. I just noticed there wasn't anything over the connectors. I may have missed the salesman taking it off

    This is the Garmin weather cap.




    This is what seals out the water and protects the pins. If you put the rubber boot on without it. Water can still get in and the pins can still be damaged.

    I never use the rubber boot. Not even sure where mine is. I may have filed it in the big round filing cabinet.
