Here's some pics. I haven't mounted the big tank back on it yet, nor have I put the 908RRs on. I'm drowning in tax accounting bs right now.
My über kül cooler/Led brake light turnsignal housing.
And lookie what's inside. The remote XM radio/weather/traffic antenna thingamajig.
The mount is cool, you don't need to unplug any cables to remove it from your bike
Only thing "cooler"
is a custom made splash screen for the Zumo.

Good to hear. At least I know I didn't do anything silly when building the Mac version. (now I just have to make sure I keep it up to date along with the PC version!).

**edit... never mind, thought this was a reply in another forum. Hadn't realized I hadn't announced the release of the Mac version here. That was over in the ADVRider forum.

I'm currently working on see if I can get routing to work (nothing available yet), and I'm looking for some feedback.
I'm making some good progress, but there are some definite problems which are going to be difficult, if not impossible for me to overcome.
1. It is questionable whether I'll ever be able to get it to route successfully in Mapsource (although routing on the GPS is likely still an option).
2. The routes generated are rarely 'right' they will frequently direct you the wrong way down one way streets etc. For example, on a 'test route' from my house to the University of Calgary, every turn is wrong, directing you to drive on the wrong side of the road, take turns off of overpasses, and go down the on ramp rather than the off ramp, but it does tell you to drive on the right roads.
3. Road names and addressing still won't be present. Have to wait for the data to be made available at geobase (or elsewhere) to get this to work.
How useful would autorouting be in the above context?

I don't think auto routing is importantat all. Especially on the trails. I have a couple of maps loaded on my garmin so if I need to auto route I can switch to that map. But on the trails, autorouting is just :shoot:.

Road names have to wait until I can get the data for road names. Its supposed to be released some time soon, but governments always move at a snail's pace.

Thought I'd post the coverage map for the next version, so you know what to look forward to. I'm in the process of filling in holes right now. I'll be compiling/uploading a new version when this is done (probably in a couple of days)

New version is currently in 'beta'.
Mostly because it will only function as an update, rather than a complete install.
Visit http://www.ibycus.com/ibycustopo/MapUpdate.exe to download the update.

You probably can't load the whole country at the same time, regardless of the size of the card you're using (Garmin has a limit to the number of segments you can load at one time, I think its 2025 segments which is less than a gig.).
