Installed Android Auto onto the RT. I can navigate it with the WunderWheel. Used a three-wire BMW pigtail that plugs into the factory GPS harness to power the unit through the canbus. Unit mounts where the GPS would, using the factory mounting holes. Works well. Looks great. Easy to use. Turn the wheel left or right to move the "cursor", and the turn signal cancel switch is the "enter" key. Having issues with Google assistant, though. It hears "hey google", but prompts "Bixby". This doesn't happen in either of the cars, so it's got to be the unit. I'll sort it out later, but out of the box.. this is a solid upgrade.

Nope, but partly why I did updates and some cleaning up today.

Thanks for the updates! Were you the one that broke this place last weekend?

Lol

Thanks dude! Glad to see the discover feeds are back. Very handy.

Updated a ton of stuff today. I see the formatting for the search box isn't working well, but I can worry about that another day. Let me know if you find anything else not working correctly.

Meh. Too many damn old, stinky geezers as it is. Time to start thinning the herd of non-productive leeches.

Sold. Thanks, Bubba.

Southern edge of Nelsonville on the old main drag. 2 eggs, bacon, hashbrowns, toast & coffee for $7!

Today I made it to Dawson Creek British Columbia, the official start of the Alaska Highway! tomorrow it’s onward to Fort Nelson BC, named after Admiral Nelson and an early fur trading post in the area. from the Fort Nelson museum’s webpage: Fort Nelson, named after Admiral Nelson, was established as a fur post in 1805 and is the gateway to the Northern Rocky Mountains and the Muskwa-Kechika Management Area. Life in Fort Nelson began to change drastically in 1941 and 1942 mainly as a result of World War II. The Northwest Air Staging Route established an airport in 1941. The population of Fort Nelson increased substantially in 1942 with the arrival of US Army troops to begin construction of the Alcan Highway, now called the Alaska Highway. With so many people working on the highway, it only took 9 months to survey and build the 1500 mile stretch of road. after that its two solid days ride to Whitehorse in the Yukon Territory. There I have a new rear tire waiting for me. My rear Mitas E-07 is toast. Sure hope it makes it. My host last night in Prince George BC, Larry Sievill. Great guy!

Where is that Breakfast spot? No not today. She just purchased a new Spyder F3T Light Blue yesterday at ASK/Columbus. She had 38K on her 2014.

Rode it 200mi to one of my favorite breakfast/lunch spots. I may have seen B-Mac & Spyder wife on 374 near Old Man's Cave. Looked like a Strom followed by a white Spyder? Was that you, Brian?

I just rode 374 from 33 to 180. It's just been chip-sealed and has tons of loose gravel on it. Miserable time skating through almost every corner. Avoid this until the excess gravel is washed away and the chip-seal is set.

Right On Dan, the Flat rear tire at 135miles was a detour to the operation. Seat's been ordered and Suspension is on my shelf awaiting install.

DR650 first expenditures for a man your size B should be suspension. Then a quality seat. Enjoy the pig

Saw a Cybertruck in the wild today!

Great to see everyone. Next time I’ll be sure to have something I can try to keep up with you young whipper snappers with. I did not feel comfortable pushing the oldwing.
