Great ride. I use the same Garmin device also on the same V-strom as yours. I mounted mine on the left side on the handlebar so I have free sight onto the dashboard. I do most navigation planning on the computer with BaseCamp and transfer it then on to the Garmin. I had some difficulties at the beginning but now it works pretty well.

Thanks for the comment. I also wanted to mount it on the left but I've got an ETC reader mounted there. I really liked the way it worked. At the moment I'm using Google maps then converting the maps to gpx then copying into the Garmin. If I get in trouble will ask you some hints on how you use the base camp. Hope you won't mind.!
