I'll start.

I don't get to rally's/meetings very easy, but I love seeing LD riding cockpit setups. I saw one guys motorcycle with a FLIR!

Slick idea with the warning lights!

Mine isn't as featured as some guys.

Zumo 396 on the left bar, drink holder next to that. Aux light and heated gear controllers on left switch cluster.

Dr. Mallard (co-pilot) and aftermarket TPMS on dash shelf. I disabled the factory warning light.

Phone holder on the right bar. I used to have my Spot X mounted on the bar also, but I moved it to the fairing so that I could get the glove box open more easily.

Might pick up a second Zumo at some point. If I do, it'll go on the left side of the fairing (opposite the Spot).

My Spot X's plastic cap at the top of the antennae popped off. It got wet and ruined the LCD screen so I have to file a warranty claim, wish me luck.

Good news is that the unit still tracked!

Really nice setup.

Last time I saw your bike, it wasn't this loaded with screens to keep up with Stephen.

Did I miss an upgrade somewhere along the line?
The tablet is getting a little long in the tooth and recent updates to Waze and Google Maps had it dragging along. The Sena, while connected to my phone in the tankbag, would usually voice dial just fine but about 75% of the time, do so in Speaker Mode rather than Bluetooth mode and my previous phone would NOT dial 911 without using the keypad, regardless of technique.

I solved all those issues by installing a wireless charger on the left bar for the phone.

Now I use the Tab A for MyRADAR and Spotwalla (to monitor my SPOT messages) and the phone (hardwired to the SM-10 dongle) for Waze, Maps, iHeart Radio, Sirius/XM archives, and receiving the occasional business call.

Instructions on the windscreen? Very clever! Never thought about that.
I missed that on first look. I like it too.

My idea was to laminate a checklist, but I like the checklist on the windscreen better.
Back when we wore earplugs and not-so-comfortable fixed full-face helmets we occasionally took off our helmets and removed the ear plugs at longer stops. Invariably one of us would forget to replace our earplugs or would have one not seated correctly and would need to stop ¼ mile down the road. This checklist was a result of too many extra stops. It evolved a little since then. The clear label tape works well because, while remaining visible, it is not at all obstructive to my view down the road.

We solved the initial problem by switching to Neotecs and ear buds. I since have gone 36 hours straight without removing my helmet with none of the previous issues coming up.

Simple setup for me. This is my commuting setup, so I used it on my first SS1k a couple days ago. Phone is in a wireless charging mount. Might upgrade to a tablet sometime and move the phone to the bars. Need to figure out if I can run voice navigation from a tablet and music from the phone through the same bluetooth comm first.

Cool! It’s truly amazing what cell phones are capable of these days.

Shawn, as a relatively new Wing owner, can I ask how that Ram mount setup is attached to the handlebar?
