If it seems to good to be true, it usually is. Those sub-$550 prices are probably getting below the actual dealer cost. Gee, how do they sell them so cheap? Somebodies losing money. Sometimes its the business, sometimes its the buyer. The Zumo mount fits on any motorcycle handlebar with a couple of inches of room to clamp down. I attached one to a Road King. The HD mount looks a little different than the standard one which works fine. I'd buy the regular Garmin version.

 

I've just been looking at H-D's site about the "Road Tech" Zumo and I'm not sure why anyone would ever buy it. They remove standard equipment that comes with the Garmin 550 and charge you $200 for it and it doesn't even fit all motorcycles which the standard mount does. WTF??? Even though I was an idiot and bought the 450 instead as I don't care about XM, traffic, or bluetooth and had to buy the car mount separately, the additional car mount and home charger were way less money and still less than buying the 550. I think the only people that will buy the Road Tech versions are either negotiating a deal while making a bike purchase or just simply not paying attention.

 

Here is a way to mount it on an Ultra

I purchased the Zumo 450 from Amazon for $350. It is brand new not reconditioned and needed nothing extra to buy. I used the supplied Ram mounts and power cord. It works great.

 

On the Ultra, HD just came our with the faring mount last week for the Garmin Zumo. My 2004 Ultra is in the shop right now having one mounted.
With 20%/20% at my local dealer, price is sweet as anything on the web, and yes, logo, loaded with HD dealerships, etc. Come on touring season!

 

Please clarify. Are you getting the HD Roadtech Zumo or just the new fairing mount?

 

HD just released a new mount for the Zumo/Roadtech it's fairing mounted above the fuel gauge. i saw the pic in the new products catalog at the HD dealer and ordered one it will be here in a few more days hopefully. the part number is 92366-08 priced at $35.00 the bracket bolts/screws to the inner fairing [requires drilling] and it uses the standard Zumo cradle.

 

Made that mistake once with the HD Quest..WON'T repeat it. If you ever upgrade to a different GPS, you will be left with HOLES in your inner fairing. Not a good look no matter how you try to hide them.

I'll mount on the bars so I can change it int he future if I so desire.

The Garmin 550 comes with EVERYTHING you need to mount it to the bars in 2 different ways. You can mount to the bars themselves, OR you can mount to the switch housing on either side of the bike. Also comes with the Dash mount for the Car. you can use it on the windshield, (Not recommended) or you can mount the included plastic plate and mount to that.

 

I bought the Garmin 550 but then bought the H/D switch houseing mount because it makes a lot better looking install. I also removed fairing and hard wired into the curcuit for the cig lighter

 

Be careful here. Make sure it has the memory card also. Unit will not be any good without it. Had the same thing happen to me for a good price then they called & wanted to know if I was going to purchase memory card for another $175.00 & it didn't include carrying case. They were real arrogant, so i canx order & went to amazon.com & got it all for $658.00.
