How cool is your young bloke well done James.

Yeah I reckon little tackers look tops on their bikes all kitted up

After todays purchase I had hoped that I would be next in line for a trailbike but I think the little bloke in the background wont be too far away from a stepup.Needless to say there may be a need for a 125 in the not to distant future. :pinch:

At this rate I can see myself having to wait till their on 250/450s and asking if I can have a go :laugh: :laugh:

Looking to invest in a Montana 650T, but confused over the options regarding maps.

Ryda offer the 650T, with TOPO Maps and auto mount for $600.

http://www.ryda.com.au/Garmin-Montana-650t-Handheld-GPS-p/montana650t.htm

My usual GPS supplier, Johnny Appleseed, has the same pack but for $695.

http://www.ja-gps.com.au/Garmin/montana-650t-gps/

The only difference I can work out in the two offers is the JA bundle includes the TOPO map as a separate SD card. But Ryda has the TOPO maps pre-installed.

Confused since JA is normally pretty competitive. So is the Ryda deal so much better, or are there advantages in having the maps on an SD card?

I would go the SD card because that way I can transfer it to other GPSs if I didnt like the Montana or it failed or who knows what the future holds.

Personally JA isn’t the cheapest around

James if you decide to update let me know I would buy your 62

TB

Thanks for the offer TB but I am going to give it another go on the next nav ride and see how I go.

Hoping it was just a case of to much learning to do in one weekend and being slightly overawed by the occasion :ohmy: :laugh:

Did read somewhere if you hardwire the screen stays illuminated, is this so, :unsure: if it is that may help me
Sorry for hi jacking Isambard

[jim cadyMember]

That’s the one I should have bought too Isambard :pinch: Montana

I rushed in and bought GPS without really talking it through with the guys on here and cant see mine for fading eyesight :laugh: :laugh:

Wait till you hear from them to discuss your needs they will point you in the right direction

[jim cadyMember]

Thanks for your thoughts Nato and Jeffro,whichever colour we eventually go will probably be new as I am no mechanic and the bike will be passed on to son number two so don’t want it to be to old by the time he gets it.I know you can change plastics and all but he still revels in that new bike excitement when you tell him this will be yours in a few years :laugh:

The TTR would be my choice keep it blue eh Otherwise price would be my next factor, none of them make a bad bike in that range

TB

Didn’t see this as I was typing away TB but I am leaning this way,be the 5th one I have bought of him.I dare say he is enjoying the relationship :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

hi james i cant comment about the ttr110 or the crf 110 but the klx110 has served us well , hadnt had any problems with it ,and everybody rides it when they come out ere and my daughter used it for awhile when she started racing it been a great little bike

Thanks for the info Wolfie,I am thinking that they are all pretty solid,but you never know.

Roughly ttr $3300.00 klx $3000.00 crf $2600.00 I do have a trade in as well which will figure in the sums, a PW 50 and my logic is that my local yami dealers trade in price would beat the others so the respective prices will be close.He has been helpful to me, even let me take a used ttr home this past weekend to make sure my boy fit the bike Loyalty has to work both ways,so I do feel a sense of obligation :pinch:

Just want to make sure I get the right one if there is a standout,he does like the look of those green bikes though :laugh: :laugh:

[jim cadyMember]

Bit rude of him not to respond to the well wishes

It may be he is just sulking as I know the Ktm is broken :laugh: :laugh:

[jim cadyMember]

This day never ceases to amaze me,with the stories of bravery and heroism that these men and women showed.And in most cases at such a young age.
Like to think I could have done the same, not sure though and thanks to them I didn’t have to.
Heroes every one of them

Lest We Forget
