I'm sure that this has been talked about before, but I have aTomTom I am using now that I carry in a tank bag and it has been working great. I have been looking upgrade to the Garmin 760 or 780. They both have good reviews, but I would like to hear from those of you that use them.

Thanks, Dan

 

I would get a Zumo.... It links with a blue tooth headset and works great. Built for motorcycling.

I did just buy a Garmin 755 for another car and it is very nice, but not optimized for motorcycling.

 

I couldn't pass up this deal:

Zumo 450 for $349

 

I use the Garmin 760 and have had no problems at all. I probably would have gone with the Zumo if I was starting over, but I already owned the Garmin when I bought this bike. So the mount cost me $25 and I was all set.

 

Clint55,
Have you had any problems with your Garmin mounted on the handle bars? The vibration would be my concern. I have my Tom Tom in a tank bag with a foam cushion which works well and I had planned to do the same with the Garmin, but I like the way you have it mounted.
Thanks

 

I use my NUVI on a RAM mount and they are great.

Vibration is a non-issue.....

You can see photos I posted of my GPS using the RAM mounting system in this thread:

Zumo 550.

 

Zumo 550...had several Garmins, they have the best customer service around.
The Zumo was designed for motorcycles, I would go on but best read the review on the Garmin Web Site.....

 

I have the Zumo 550, but if I could do it again, I would get the TomTom rider. With the rider, you can customize the screen with what you want. I would like a clock on the main screen of the Zumo, but I have to hit a button to see it. With the rider, it will always how you which way the next turn will be with an arrow in the left lower corner, not with the Zumo, again ou have o hit a button. The Zumo lets you know how much longer until you reach your destination in time, but not very helpfull if you don't know what time it is. The rider can show you current time, time desination will be reached, distance till destination, you can add a compass, etc.

 

I agree with the ZUMO 550. Great unit. If I had to do it all over again I'd do it all over again. lol
