I'm old fashioned like a map in frount of me, GPS does not work all the time.Took a minute to get the strap around. If you feed the strap vertically it is easier. good product. I copy sections of the map of the trip, stack them in the holder and remove each page when I'm done withit. |

Pretty handy! Sometimes the GPS just isn't enough and those highlighted areas show up on a map when the GPS isn't giving you a clue that your gonna miss this great traveling feature. Simple and just a little tug gives you radio controls. Velcro ... wish I would have invented it!! |

Even though we have a GPS I like a map to look at the big picture. I thought this pouch was the answer but like so many others I cannot get my fuel tank door to latch when I slide the tabs under. I know I'm just a pilot but I can't seem to figure out how to get this thing to work right. Other than that this is a great Idea. |

I like my maps...and I like to have them where I can see them. This is the ideal inexpensive map carrying and display unit that I could find out there for my GL1800. It installs easy and the map remains dry even in a downpour. I like too that it acts as a sunshield for the radio buttons and also shields the buttons from water to some degree. I would prefer a more clear plastic (vs. opaque) but I believe it would scratch too easily so this is acceptable. I can store a couple of folded up maps underneath the map that is being displayed and used. For upkeep just a damp towel to clear the dust off it and inside also to keep it from accumulating dust that could wear/scratch it further. Hopnel makes great products and this is yet another one. |

I do not understand why so many had issues with mounting the velcro strap. It loops around the ignition panel right below the key. The bottom twin flaps go under the gas tank door. Simple! I put each weekends' route sheet in it and it is a lot better than taping them to my windshield(which is what I used to do, and the tape damaged my windshield). |

Hooked up by going behind key switch with strap then hooking to map pouch. I then inserted flaps under gas tank door. Worked well holding my directions. |

Some reviewers have had difficulty in using the velcro mounting strap that is supplied. There are no instructions provided, and I only found the solution by trying at a few positions. The strap can be inserted underneath the plastic panel on my 2009 model, but forward of the ignition key, which does not seem the right location. Then the strap needs to be drawn back and fastened together to the rear of the ignition key. The contour of the plastic panel will keep it in the right position. This puts the velcro of the strap in the right position to mate with the velcro on the front of the map holder, and the back of the holder has two small tabs which are held by the gas cap door when it is lowered and locked in the closed position. |

It looks like it would be useful, and I'll follow one of the other reviews recommendation to use some velcro tape to secure it, but I have to believe that there must have been a 'Wing design change relating to using the upper securing strap. On my 2008 standard Wing there is no place that the upper strap can be looped around, unless maybe I disassembled that part of the dash and was able to reassemble it with the strap in place. Don't know if I like that idea even if it's possible, so I think I'll head over to Home Depot for some velcro tape. |

This is a must have for charity rides. Cut a plastic sheet protector down on two sides to fit. Put ride directions in sheet protector then in map holder. That way you won't get an ink transfer to the plastic map holder. |

Cztery gwiazdki bo system mocowania na pasku przechodzącym pod stacyjką pozostawia wiele do życzenia. |

Me and my best friend got one of these for our 11,500 mile trip from NC to the Black Hills and Rocky Mountains. It worked great. It will attach to the frame just below the Key, and lock in to the gas cover. It's about 8" by 8" for the map space. You slide the map in from the bottom, then belcrow it closed. It worked for what we used it for!!! |

Don't like it's mounting system. Still haven't figured out how they wanted you to use a velcro strap that holds down the upper end, that came with it. (It didn't come with suggested mounting instructions) I ended up sticking some velco just below the key and inside the gas fill well in lieu of the strap. Worked fine on a just completed 3,500 trip. |
