I bought the Coloroda one in Colorado and its the best map I've ever held in my hands.  Plastic and won't crumble in the rain, slides right into the tank bag flap, magnifies the motorcycle twisty routes....  all around win-win.

The bad...$14 boners!

In keeping with the idea of motorcycle specific maps I think that these are worth a look as well. The 2 guys who have put them together have done map books for British Columbia, Washington State and Northern California so far. They are very thorough and are made from weatherproof materials as well. Here is the link to their website http://www.destinationhighways.com/

And here is an example of a poorly scanned copy of their favourite road in B.C.

I use that site for finding/planning routes.  When in tough places where I need a full size map that won't melt I appreciate the Butlers.
