Recent reviews for this item: Hal, August 10, 2012 Just completed a 3000 KM trip too Sardis S Dakota and I
thoroughly enjoyed the directions given from here in Eganville
Ont.. Others in our group of bikes doubted its direction so
followed them till they realized they had made a mistake and
asked me to bring them on track again which I did with my
Zumo, no problem,(show off)informed of this unit and where I
ordered it in Canada. All of the accessories with unit made
it a snap to be up and touring, Thanks again Hal Rodie, July 6, 2012 Worked awsome for me. 5000 km round trip from MB to
Toronto. Made life so easy just had to concentrate on
driving. bluetooth worked good with my xbi2 helmet. Leslie, July 3, 2012 Love the gas tank function that warns me when my tank is
getting low and shows me gas stations nearby. Love the
fact that it is waterproof. Love that there is so much
info at my fingertips. And love that I can turn it off
when I just want to wander :) Rigid Bobster, May 25, 2012 I have had this unit for 2 yrs now, actually I have had 4 units in the past 2 yrs. It
turns out that even though the Garmin web page, Canadian and US, lists that this unit
can use the GTM 35/40 FM traffic power cord. Well my experience is the exact opposite. I purposely purchased the unit because it has this feature and from day one had a problem,
the unit restart itself every time it is plugged into the traffic cable. Sometimes not
right away but sure enough it restarts. I purchased my original unit for $600 CND, spent
$70 on a GTM Traffic cord, $150 shipping the units back to Raytech and Garmin and still
no working GPS. Garmins service is outstanding. I have had a tech working with me for 2
yrs and is great. They even sent me a new GTM cable to make sure it was not the problem.
Like I said, Garmin has swapped the unit out 4 times and has provided new GTM cables but
with no results.
As far as a motorcycle GPS, it is outstanding. Works great, easy to use, glove friendly,
waterproof, UV resistant, comes with all the hardware for mounting. What can I say, but
wow!
Unfortunately I wanted to use this unit in my vehicle to avoid traffic on my commute to
work and well it just DOESN'T work. If you do not need the traffic this is an awesome
unit.
To give this unit a fair review it really depends on what you want it for. For me
needing the traffic feature makes this an average to poor GPS. If the traffic feature
worked, honestly this would be a 6 star rating, yes I said 6.
For the record, I have 5 Garmins, one without traffic and 3 with and all work with
traffic except the zumo. It really suck to have to use 2 GPS for the price I paid for
the zumo
