compass useage on rt

[irvin48]

i would have sworn i saw a compass reading on my "15 rts when i bought
it. i guess not because i dont see it now. done enough other swearing at
it though. seeings im directionally challenged and very seldom plug our
non can am garmin in, is there a good one to buy that would actually work
on the vehicle and could be mounted discreetly ? havent heard anyone mention
this accessory. couldnt make one work on the victory. too much close
metal, even though it was a vic accessory.--thank you.--irv toms

With all of the metal and electrical fields being generated on and around the bike: it'll take a high-quality unit that can be adjusted to compensate for all of the interference... :shocked:
That's why I like my Zumo 660! :thumbup:

The Garmin you have should work fine. There are plenty of choices for mounting on dash or handle bars
