Just got a KTM 390 ADV R for 90% forest road, double and singletrack...and hopefully no more than 10% pavement on two-lanes. I've been riding a two-sroke 300 for 10 years without any navigation, but I'd like to use Gaia or OnX with the 390 via car play with my Cardo.

I'm hesitant to mount a Carpuride or similar unit above the OEM screen since i'm assuming it blocks the view ahead. I wonder if it's in my face up high if I'll be tempted to look at it instead of what's ahead. Conversely, if I mount it on the handlebar, then I'm probably looking down instead of the trail.

I'm 5'11 and like to stand up the trail calls for it, so maybe mounting the nav screen up high rally-style won't block my view in technical sections. Hoping to avoid mounting the unit multiple times to sort this out.

Appreciate any insight!

Shout out to Uno Dos SF for the consistent fresh ingredients and delicious food every time. Corona NA is easily one of the best clones out there. 5/5 with tacos! 🍻

Go Brewing Disarm Hazy IPA: 4.1/5 stars

Complex hop flavors, pine and legit PNW character. Maybe a bit sour but pretty drinkable. Would buy again.

Deschutes Fresh Squeezed Hazy IPA: 3/5 Stars

There isn't a bigger fan of Deschutes Fresh Squeezed IPA (NA or leaded) than me. It was my go-to when I was drinking and it's my go-to for NA IPA. I would drink the FS Hazy with alcohol when Costco sold the 50/50 Fresh Squeezed cases, but it wasn't near as good as the regular FS and the same thing happened here. Now that I've had it next to the Go Brewing Disarm...I realize how mediocre it is. While the color is beautiful and it has a good mouth feel, there's no citrus, hop character or anything special.

Winner: Go Disarm 🍻

Took a full bed of sod to the dump...so I treated myself and came home with a new bike 🤟

Stoked to pick up a 2026 390 ADV R today. Had my shop pull off the Mitas tires and mount Motoz Tractionator RallZ. Hopefully I can keep it upright until the SW-Motech crash bars ship 🤞
