 Best Ever August 25, 2007

Installation was straightforward. Programminng from the included mapping cd was easy. The Zumo finds position faster than my iWay. If you dedide to alter your programmed route it recalculates very quickly to get you to your destination. It is easy to see and easy to read, The music downloaded to the unit from iTunes sounds good through the headset and I can use the Bluetooth to answer my cellphone if necessary. It also looks good on the bike. I have no complaints at all. Great unit and worth the pricey cost.

A bit pricey but loaded with features and versatility. I am happy with all aspects of this unit except the XM radio. I have not tried it because the antenna price is crazy. Other than than it works like a Garmin should.
 Zumo 550 fitted to '92 GL 1800 August 23, 2007

This item works well and is easy to operate. Just a couple of reservations. When hooking up to the existing Goldwing audio by an auxiliary lead, the connection is not waterproof. The lock down by special tamper proof screw (special screwdriver supplied) does not prevent unit being easily stolen as it can be detached from the Ram Mount by a thumb screw. While the Unit can be pass word protected and useless to any one if stolen it does not replace the GPS.
Great with a helmet headset too! August 22, 2007

I use the Zumo 550 on several motorcycles, and even my car. When on the motorcycles, I use the EdSets helmet headsets and their specialized Zumo cable so I can ride with voice prompts, MP3 music, XM Radio and even my Blackberry cell phone paired with it. The coolest feature is that it gets my address book from the Blackberry and makes it available for TOUCH SCREEN DIALING, and with the EdSets headset from edsets.com, and their cable, I'm making calls, listening to music and voice navigation prompts, all inside my helmet. How cool is that?
Great GPS unit. August 12, 2007

I looked at all the GPS units and since I have a motorcycle this one does it all. I do not regret spending the extra money for it. The only thing I think could be improved is the unit should have some type of speaker set up for the motorcycle cradle like the car cradle has. The TTS and mp3 features are useles unless you have some sort of ear phones or bluetooth set up.
I have gone on 4 trips so far since getting it in July and it has not led me astray. Even if I missed a turn it brings me back to where I am going. I had imported some custom POI's and the coordinates were not correct on some of them. I didn't know it and neither did the GPS. It took me to where the coordinates were. Unfortunatly it was in a residential section instead of the business section of that town. The GPS did it's job but the imported data was wrong. I don't fault the unit for that. Remember GPS is like a computer. The results you get back is only as good as the info put in.
