En la motocicleeta no se escuchan las indicaciones por lo que es necesario que lo ofrezcan con la facilidad de comunicar el sonido con Bluethoot.

I use this GPS every day, for driving, with the added topo chip, I use it for hunting, and with the added marine chip, I use it for fishing. Great all round unit.

Having upgraded from the SP2720 unit I have found that there are many similarities, as well many differences. Overall I am very happy with the unit however it does have its differences. The differences are mostly in locating all the features however in comparison each unit carries all the features including being environmentally sealed.

I mounted the 550 with a 550 cradle / bare wire kit to my Vstrom and it funtions very nicely. Visibility is very good even in bright sunlight. When I registered the Nuvi, Garmin provided a free download upgrade of City Navigator 2010 which has complete North America, Hawaii, Bahamas, Alaska and PR. The unit easily transfers to the car cradle. I mute the sound on the bike as it's barely audible with the wind noise. I would have liked a connection for a safety line to the bike but it does seem secure in the m/c cradle. I would not suggest using the car suction cradle on a motorcycle, as I have had it fall off the dash in the car on a good bump. The ability to detect the vehicles power is nice so it turns on/off automatically with a switched power source. I don't miss the turn by turn sound on the bike as the screen directions are very easy to see and read with the unit mounted on top of the guages up under the windshield. All in all, it meets my expectations. I had considered a Zumo but for the price difference I can live without sound.
