Very Happy November 24, 2008
Great product for my motorcycle. Availability and delivery excellent. No follow-up by pushy salesperson to try and sell me accessories. Will buy from Amazon again.
ZUMO 450 Review November 23, 2008
I waited a long time to buy a GPS for my Valkyrie Interstate. Lots of guys in my clubs had them but I wasn't putting together routes or anything but just riding in the group or tailgunning. Then a friend got one for his Interstate. When I asked him how he was going to hear it he said that it plugs right into the Auxillary port on the radio and you hear it thru your headset. So I searched for the best price and found it on Amazon.com. Takes a little know-how to install the wiring but not difficult with a basic understanding. Now I have a GREAT GPS and I can listen to all of my MP3 tunes thru the built in MP3 player in the ZUMO. Couldn't be happier. Ride leaders attach the route file to our forum notifications and I can download it to my 450 and know in advance where all of the turns are going to be. One of the best toys I have.
 It'll get you where your going 98% of the time. November 23, 2008
I bought the Zumo 450 the day before going on a 1700 mile trip from Dover DE to the Great Smokey Mountains in North Carolina. During the trip I got rained on and exposed to near freezing temperatures. I choose this over the 550 based on cost over function (I didn't need bluetooth or XM).
Pros:
Reliable information to destination including routes, times, and travel data.
Ease of use even with gloves.
Good mounting system and pretty easy to power from my motorcycle.
Good battery life.
Cons:
You have to use the base to plug anything except a USB chord into the unit and I didn't try driving with this unit hooked to a computer yet so I can't speak for that capability.
Garmin does not make a car power cord with a cigarette adaptor that will fit the base. The only options are to drop another $100 on a car base or modify a motorcycle power chord.
It doesn't seem like it would have been very difficult to make this unit a great multi-vehicle unit but greed got into Garmins way.
The onboard maps don't include recently reconfigured traffic patterns (watch out around Washington D.C.)
In the end I would recommend this unit for motorcyclists as it delivers me where I wanted to go and provided some interesting information along the way.
 functional but the software inferface could be better November 4, 2008

I am going to write a quick review. I first would like to mention that I have seen many Nav systems over the years. Way back when I was part of developing the portable Nav systems for in the car. This unit is nice and functions as described. The POIs are great and routes well ... but ... the user interface is not good. They don't display importan information and the menu system is hard to navigate through. They strongly lack in this area, I would recommend you try one in a local store first or consider some of the other models such as Mio Technology, iNav Corp, etc.
Sorry the review is so short but I hope this helps you in making your decision ... the point consider trying the interface or be aware there are better ones out there. All in all its a little over prices for what you get.
when it works, it works.....usually...... October 25, 2008
Had the Zumo for 2 weeks now. Took a trip in the car ( I spliced a cigarette lighter adapter to end of power cord), everything worked for 2 days, 3rd nite Zumo told me to drive a 2 mile loop to head back to where I started before actually getting me on my way to a hotel it found. After that, no weird stuff for another day......then it runs me down 3 miles of gravel backroads to get to a winery that is less than 1/4 mile from an Interstate off-ramp (Interstate was part of route, too!). Get home, Zumo sits for a week, then it won't power up. Plug in pc cable to charge it (didn't think it should need it), nothing. Nothing in the owners manual about removing battery to "reset" device, found that on Garmin tech site. It worked, wish I had that handy tip a little sooner. 2 days later, all ok. This is my first GPS, don't know if the nav quirks are typical. POI's are pretty handy, found food and motels along the way. Curious what will happpen when I go for a cycle trip and don't have laptop w/ wifi for back-up.
