Anyone know if there is a waypoint file containing Buell Dealer locations. I'm using a Garmin Quest at the moment. I believe the Buell branded Quest 2 has the locations pre-loaded.

If not, I'm going to start compiling them, starting along a route I'm going on in the next few days across the U.S.

It would be cool to have the Badweb Frappr waypoints.

Yes there is. I am finding out about getting you a copy.

Drop me a note and remind me if you haven't heard back by Tuesday afternoon.

I have a set of harley dealers as POIs and it is hit or miss weather they carry buells but it is a start. If You can grab the Buell Dealers as a set of POI's that would be awesome. I have a garmin quest2 (non buell branded, goes between the 2 bikes and the cars). As for Frapper stuff. I wonder if they have they have anyway to download the pushpins in a raw format, cause if so we can easily turn it into a set of POI's .

been working on a file for Streets and Trips for my laptop as I travel.

Takes awhile to build the file with all the good data.

I tried to use the POI tool with my Quest but it's not compatible (bummer). I think I have to enter waypoints.

If someone knows an easier way, please let me know.

Az_m2. I use the POI tool with my Quest 2 and it works very well. Just have to make sure that POI file is in the correct format, and then just point it to the directory.

Yes, the POI tool works with the Quest 2, but not the Quest.

Court, that will come in very handy. Thanks again.

I suspect all you would need to do is export the waypoints file in GPX format.

Jack, that might work for folks that use the POI loader, I'll have to check out the site. Now I just need the darn waypoints file.

Court, I sent you a PM.
