Yip I use it,really easy to put on and take off and has a slot for headphones,downside do not open the case when riding in snow or rain as it gets moisture in and fogs up on the inside.

Got a Givi s850 case in the end

Fits the sv nicely , does not block clocks and can see car sat nav fine ( Garmin 205w)

For power going to get a usb battery extender which should give me 6-8 hrs

Cheers Steveg

Alternatively get a cigarette lighter socket for your bike and a car charger for the GPS and then you can have it running from the battery indefinitely.

I have a question regarding this product if I may.

I currently use my tomtom 910 when out on the bike. I actually use the windscreen sucker mount on the inside of the windscreen on the bike and have covered plenty of miles without it coming off. The question I have is does this cover allow for the connection of the sucker mount? Does it have a hole in the back allowing me to still connect it to the mount?

Cheers.

I have one of these



Not offering to sell it but if you're thinking about getting one I can try and find it so you can try it out if you want.

I'll have a look next time we hook up if you can find it Dan. I'll be able to tell straight away if it will be any good. The issue that I have is the only way to deliver power to the TomTom is via the cradle for the windscreen mount. The TomTom does not actually have it's own power input socket. It's the cradle the lead plugs into. So if I'm out for more than a couple of hours or so, the battery on the Satnav dies. I am trying to find a cover that will wrap around the whole until whist still connected to the cradle and stuck to the inside of the windscreen. Confused? I know I am.
