I noticed that the unit doesn't include a charger or power cord. Well, at least it's not listed as included in the package. Do I need to buy a charger or cord or is there one included in the package. Thanks

Hello

Vehicle units come ready to go with a vehicle charger. Vehicle units charge using the cigarette lighter port on your vehicle. Please see the package contents on the Overview page.

Cheers

Hi - Thanks for the quick reply. I'm planning a cross country trip on my motorcycle and I don't have a cigarette type plug on the bike. I'd like to to charge the unit overnight in my motel room so I'm ready for another day of riding. Is this possible with this GPS? Thanks again for your help.

Hello

You can charge the unit on your bike. Here is a link to part of the assembly you will need. It contains the holder and the power cable.

You will also need an arm and a handle bar attachment. Here are some options for the arm.

Here is my recommendation for the handlebar.
