Bluesman Posted January 18, 2009 #1 Posted January 18, 2009 Anybody know off hand if the Venture is GPS ready? I have a TomTom as I had it from my old ride and I want to set it up on the new one so what I mean is, is there an outlet to jack in my adaptor? Or do I have to install one myself? Thanks......... Bluez (Just trying to plan ahead!)
1sttenor Posted January 18, 2009 #2 Posted January 18, 2009 I'm not sure what you mean, but... I have a TomTom mounted on the left handlebar. The power outlet is on the fairing on the left side. You can plug in the sound output to the port next to the cassette player to run the directions and tunes through the stereo. Many of us have used a Y adaptor (you must split the fairing) so that you don't have to open the cassette door.
BuddyRich Posted January 18, 2009 #3 Posted January 18, 2009 Theres a cig ligther on the left side of the fairing and next to the tape deck is a line in .
Freebird Posted January 18, 2009 #4 Posted January 18, 2009 Yep, it should work fine. As long as it has an audio out jack. My wife bought me a new TomTom Rider 2 for Christmas and it had no audio out jack, Bluetooth only. I returned it because of that.
waterbug Posted January 18, 2009 #5 Posted January 18, 2009 I am looking at getting a gps for my bike and this just popped in my head, if you plug into the mp3 hook then all you hear is the gps and not your cb or radio or anything rite? SO would you be bett3er to have the blue tooth or do you guys switch back and forth? thanks
Freebird Posted January 18, 2009 #6 Posted January 18, 2009 No, it you plug into the aux port, the CB and Intercom still works as it should.
Gray Ghost Posted January 19, 2009 #7 Posted January 19, 2009 My GPS has an MP3 player, so I plug it in, set the controller to AUX and I can get the tunes, directions, and CB.
