Apart from the odd development model at the UK technical centre, I very much doubt whether anyone outside India has managed to get their hands on one yet!

OK, I'll bite. What the hell is a Tripper Pad?
Nobody has a map, cell phone or Garmin? I generally know where I am, or I'll stop & sort it out. I'm kinda at a loss as to exactly why you need more distractions when riding your bike anyway, let alone pay extra money for them. It'd be nice to have the option to leave "Tripper" off and save $200 in my book. We're selling transportation here, not an internet lifestyle. All you probably "need" is a speedo, trip-resettable odometer, MAYBE turn signal & hi-beam indicators. Gas level? Just look in the tank. Neutral light, really? If you can't tell if you are in neutral...? Keep it simple, it's a 20 HP cruiser.

However, the very place I don't want any distractions is when I'm riding a bike. Yes, my GoldWing looks like an aeroplane cockpit but, like an aeroplane, very little of what's in front of me is actually used while traveling once you're happy with how it's set up.
The only time I need GPS is the last mile or so to get to an unfamiliar destination.

For me, instead, as an interceptor owner, the clock function that is inserted in the Tripper Pad is also very interesting and this function can be set to always have it available. I don't like those watches attached to the handlebars and since I always drive protected by a jacket it would be very difficult for me to look at the time from my wristwatch.
