I have a $100 Garmin Etrex on mine that tells you your speed, distance, compass, altitude, sunrise, sunset, longitude, latitude, time and you can mark waypoints and it will guide you to right back to where you started. It mounts right to the handle bars with the optional bracket. You can never have to many toys ;D

I spent a little more, got a whole lot more. A Garmin Etrex Vista is a mapping GPS. The included basemap is quite useful, it's bailed me out of trouble in foreign towns many a time. If you acquire Garmin's "Mapsource" maps and download 'em into the GPS, you have incredible detail, continent wide. The small-display map's not incredibly easy to read if you have old eyes, but having any map at all increases the value of the GPS considerably. Looking at the Ruckus, my wife wanted to know if the little rack above the headlights was for carrying sandwiches. I mount the GPS there.

I use a garmin E-Map on my ruckus. I've had this for a few years and swap it between all my vehicles all the time. I don't have a real good place to mount it yet, but i just stick it anywhere i feel like putting it that day. To run it (and other goodies) i installed a 12 volt plug on my bike. It's an easy instalation and i use it for cell phones and stuff too. The GPS is great for me because i like to ride in new and exciting places or straight into the woods. I never get lost, even when i try. ^^
