    Gps

    Received my Zumo 390 in the mail today, using the supplied ram mount I have it secured to the clutch bracket. Because I am some what lazy I am going to wire it into the left side cubby. my question is I hear talk of people being able to use the audio 3.5mm plug to hook their gps to the speakers. My 390 does not have a 3.5 jack, just a usb port in the back, am I sht out of luck ? Thanks in advance

    I am using the Bluetooth way of listening to the directions.

    Seems now a days Bluetooth is the way these things are going.

    You will love it. Just be careful, they can be distracting. Last fall I finally put one on the bike. I'm still a paper map person but slowly starting to get it. My probolm is I'm old enough to still not trust the electronic stuff. Ya I still have a pouch with paper maps in the side bag.

    So, you're good to go with audio to the speakers?
