I've not used it much but so far so good, it's better than using navigation apps off my iPhone.
You can see it above on my current motorbike, for my new bike the plan is to wire a cigarette charger up then it can be plugged in all the time as it only lasts around 2 hours in the battery and takes forever to charge.
