Wiring up GPS to bike

[Skidmark]

Does it have a constant power and a trigger wire to turn it on or is it allways wired on?

FWIW, my radio on my bike is wired hot/trigger and it has sat for months without loosing charge.

If I wire it to the battery it'll always have a draw. I don't think i'll be using the GPS all the time. I am not even sure if I understood your question right, but it's good to know you're not having issues.

That site mainly talked about installing the mount and using a cordless radar.

You can probably find some good info on this site. I didn't see a GPS installation, but there is one for a radar detector. Hope it helps.

good post. Been wondering about this myself.

So, i purchased my mounts and wiring harness and everything is good to go.

Now i'm just trying to understand the best way for me to go about this. If I wire the connection direction to the battery, will it be a drain even if the GPS is not hooked up?

Should I run a relay setup to my ignition (lights)? Or is that even necessary?

PS: If my bike is in the garage, it's on the tender.
