I'm pretty sure it's a standard 2.5mm stereo (male to male) cable. THe same one from my Roady XT works with the Zumo 550.

Should be had easliy @ Radio Shack, Fry's, Best Buy, etc.....

The zumo 550 has two outputs. A microphone output and a audio output. I want to go from the audio output to the aux in the Harley output. the audio out is a bigger outlet. dont know what size it is or what will work.

The Zumo audio out on both my car dock and bike dock are 2.5mm. It's a standard plug at in any A/V department or store.

They are the exact same size as the auido input on the front of my stock (2005) RG stereo.

I beg to differ. Go look outside at your bike mount. It has a AUDIO output location and right above it is a microphone output. The audio output is larger.Which output are you using on your harley ?

Sorry PhilM is wrong. I just got a Zumo 550. The audio out of the motorcycle cradle needs a 3.5m (1/8") male plug and the Aux into the radio system also needs a 3.5mm male plug. Radio Shack, Best Buy, ec. all carry this standard cable in different lenghts.

2.5 / 3.5.... whatever. It's a standard cable at any A/V store.

I just bought the cable Saturday & I was pretty sure it said 2.5, but perhaps it was 3.5.

Nonetheless... it's the same as the external audio input on the radio.

It works GREAT! THis is one of the neatest toys I've gotten in quite a while. Gotta be careful though..... This could be more dangerous than an old woman on a cell phone!

The part number at the sound professionals 1 meter is SP-SPSC-7, I bought 4 but now have gone a different way due to the fact of having a Serius and a Zumo went with the cellset set up quite nice hook everything together plus the radar and it plays thru speakers or can set up to use blue tooth headset with cell phone also going thur the zumo. So in essence I have four right angle .35 meter plugs which I dont need. oh well
