Hey Guys
Do anyone have a Garmin 67 hand help GPS on their bike?

I have had a Garmin 60CSx that has been used on the Toyota PU, Honda 500 ATV, Honda Trail 90 and now it's on my bikes, it has been in use since 2006/March.

It has been a Outstanding GPS thru thousands of miles rough use,
in 4 states, without a hiccup, the only thing has been the on board battery use 25/30 hrs and it's time to change the battery's, unless I use the adaptor that draws juice from the OEM battery's.

I have been looking at the 67 model of handheld, has the same features as the 60 csx model, but has over 180+ hrs ( has 2 lithium battery's) built in.

I am attempting to find out if I can run this 67 GPS off the display like the 60 csx model.

Your thoughts and suggestions of this model of GPS...
Tia

Hi, NV... No experience with a Garmin, and I’m wondering if you mean that you want to use your bike’s display as a form of controller for the Garmin or just as a source of power to charge it while riding.

I don’t know if this helps you at all, but on my Juiced RipCurrent, the (upgraded) display has a USB-C port that actually provides enough power to charge my iPhone (which is where I run RideWithGPS). Just a short USB-C to Lightning connector makes it work. This is the setup on my bike. The black USB-C cable connector at the bottom of the display is visible in the photo, and the Lightning connector side is (blurry) where the phone mount is. FYI, I understand that some displays with USB ports do not provide enough power so even if you have one this won’t necessarily be sufficient to charge the Garmin. Good luck!
