What Is A Good Location To Place A GPS Or Sirius Satelilite Radio ?

[MaybeSpyder?]

Looking to purchase a new '13 RT-S, once the weather warms up. Currently have a Sirius on my present bike and would want to transfer it to the Spyder.

Handlebar mount

I have my Sirius mounted on a ram mount that I installed on the handlebar. I have a 2011 RT and took the plastic cover off and added a piece of metal on the back of the silver colored plastic and attached the ram mount there. I add a volume booster in the trunk. I ran wires to plug my headset in. I made a little plate and attached it to the top of the trunk.
As for the GPS I added a ram mount to the top of the dashboard. I also added two plugs in the front speakers for power. For both. I will try to post pics tomorrow.

I was curious as I don't recall seeing that the RT comes a Radio, Is that right?

Zumo 665

You can always mount a Garmin Zumo 665. Mine came.with XM built in. Mounted the XM antenna inside the frunk velcroed to the underside of the lid. It,s blue toothed to my Sena headset. Works great.

All RTs except the base model, come with a radio.

Thanks Nancy as I'll likely choose either Viper Red or Circuit Yellow. I like some of the other models but don't like their color choices.

According to the BRP guy at the Motorcycle Show in Atlanta, all RTs will now come with a radio starting with the 2013 models. I was happy to hear that.

That's good to hear as the 2013 model I'm interested in. Any chance this radio will also feature XM radio?

Hmmm Marietta. I've got a friend from my Coast Guard days living there. John works for Defense Contract Audit Agency.

I think that they've addressed that shortcoming for 2013... Now the XM module can be stuffed in under the Tuperware so that you've got everything at the touch of a couple of buttons! :2thumbs: hyea:
