Thanks guys for your helpful ideas and suggestions.
Think I'll go with the central mounting position, just need to decide now between the Techmount and Kawa's own.

Thanks again.

I've finally got around to thinking about a Sat Nav for the bike and have decided on the Garmin Zumo.

My question concerns where best to mount it on the machine. I know Kawa do a mounting plate for the headstock and the Zumo also comes with a kit to fix it on the clutch m/cylinder assembly.

I was hoping you kind folk would give me the benefit of your thoughts on the best position to fix it.

Many thanks

After much cogitation and mind bending I've decided to go for the Throttlemeister and have ordered one from the States.

If anyone is interested I'll let you know how it performs once I receive it.

Guys,
Excellent! Many thanks for all your responses, I shall be busy 'smurfing' the inter thing as soon as I've finished writing this.

Thanks for your interest in the trip Lord R. We (the Royal we that is) made our way across country to Ipswich for the first night's B & B (tents? I don't think so!!) Boston and Driffield followed, I know Driff isn't near the coast but my brother lives there so 2 nights free B & B.  Whitley Bay via Newcastle and then Edinburgh ( I would pick the day of the Edinburgh marathon wouldn't I?)

Edinburgh to Langholm in the windiest conditions I think I've experienced and then a boring schlep down the motorway home - again windy but manageable.

Will have to chcek for photos.....

Thanks again for all the suggestions - very much appreciated.

Spent a very enjoyable (and comfortable) 1200 miles on the GTR earlier this week, riding up the east coast and in to Scotland.
The one thing that I think would have made the ride even more enjoyable would be a 'cruise control' function.
I have got one of thoose wrist rest gizmo's which helps but it would be nice to be able to take the right hand completely off the bars (briefly, of course).

Any of you guys come across a cruise control for the GTR yet??
