Customize your ride with the Garmin Zumo 550. Born to run, built to last, this rugged GPS navigator is always ready to ride. Designed by bikers, Garmin Zumo's motorcycle-friendly features make it easy to operate while in the saddle. From back roads to rallies, its preloaded maps and high-end navigation features give you the freedom to go where you want.
Operate Easily on Two Wheels
Durable and intuitive, the Garmin Zumo 550 is built specifically for motorcycles:
- Glove-friendly touch screen with left-handed controls makes it easy to operate
- High bright sunlight-readable, UV-resistant display makes it easy to view your screen
- Motorcycle console for trip information, including fuel gauge to warn you when its time to fill up
- Motorcycle mount with universal mounting hardware so you can mount it anywhere

Navigate the Open Road
The Garmin Zumo 550 comes ready to go right out of the box with preloaded City Navigator NT street maps and a hefty points of interest (POIs) database, including motels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply enter a destination, and Zumo takes you there with turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street names. In addition, the Garmin Zumo 550 accepts customized points of interest such as school zones and safety cameras and includes proximity alerts to warn of upcoming POIs. It is also compatible with Garmin's Tour Guide a free utility that allows you to build and upload a database of POIs that are encoded with photos and MP3 files.
A rechargeable, removable lithium-ion battery (three hour typical use) is integrated into the Garmin Zumo 550 for trip planning or use on foot. In addition, the Garmin Zumo 550 even accepts electronic maps making it the ultimate off-road navigator.
Add Optional Traffic, Weather, and Radio
With optional XM subscriptions and an XM antenna, you can check the weather, move ahead of traffic and listen to the radio when you travel with the Garmin Zumo 550. As an alternative, the Garmin Zumo 550 can receive optional TMC traffic alerts (in select cities) when used with a compatible traffic receiver. Simply press a button on the screen, and the Garmin Zumo 550 recalculates your route to avoid traffic tie-ups.
Make Hands-Free Calls and Receive Wireless Voice Prompts
With the Garmin Zumo 550's Bluetooth wireless technology, you can talk on the phone safely without removing your gloves or helmet. Connect the Garmin Zumo 550 to your Bluetooth-enabled cell phone and headset/helmet to make and receive hands-free calls. You can even make phone calls to POIs through the Garmin Zumo 550's Bluetooth interface. In addition, the Garmin Zumo 550 transmits navigation voice prompts to your headset so you can listen wirelessly.
Plan Your Adventures and Share Your Rides
The Garmin Zumo 550 makes it easy to plan your next trip and share routes with your riding buddies. Plan trips on your computer before you start. Search for food and fuel stops and local attractions. Then, transfer your route to your Garmin Zumo 550 and go.
At the end of the day, share your favorite places and rides with other Garmin Zumo riders, and review your travels in Google Earth. SD card expansion makes it easy for storage and route sharing.
