Garmin Zumo 550

[Dag]

I ordered a Garmin Zumo 550 yesterday.
I should maybee asked about your experiance before I ordered it.... :-)

Got one and I love it.  Never had a bit of trouble out of it, and it works great for me.

I've learned to follow what it says though.  Every time I've ignored its directions I"ve ended up lost.

Have one. Use the basic functions.
Subman is the local expert on the Zumo as far as I can tell.

I will use it together with a IPhone and ScalaRider Teamset.
I have an old Garmin Quest now, but that is without bluetooth. I m really looking forward to try it when
I´m going to the European Inzane in Germany.

(I like this "yellow" color option...  )

Trip to IZ:

1028 Miles


15 hours even.  Stopped for 1:07 in 15 hours


Overall average 68.5 mph with a rolling average(while moving) of: 74 mph


Couldn't resist posting that, and its the only pictures I have of the Zumo.  I've never used the bluetooth part because I don't have a headset that will plug into the Zumo....

15 hours ride.... 1 hour break. Not on the roads we have here in Norway.
I am exited to get it mounted. I ordered it from Houston so it will take a
week until I have it here.
And I have to tell you what the price is in Norway.
USD 1,540

Dag, you will love it. Blue tooth works great, I use it in my work van everyday. I don't have a setup for my helmet yet. Make sure you download the web updater. The unit most likely will not have the latest software in it. It is real easy to update. If the maps for Norway are as accurate as they are here, you can trust the turn by turn directions.
Feel free to ask questions on this forum, or email at tsmithey(REMOVETHIS)@tx.rr.com I will be heading out of town for a few days, so I may not be able to answer you until Monday.

Thank´s, I will contact you if (not if) WHEN I need help. 
I hate those operating instructions and it´s a confession of failure to even open the book....
It will take a couple of weeks until I have it here, so you will probable hear from me.

Ain't no such thing as lost on a motorcycle as long as there's gas in the tank.... 

HER: "Are we lost?"
ME: "Heck no. We're taking the creative route!"
HER: "Mexico? How the HELL did we end up in Mexico?!"

I agree Daniel, but....there are some places I prefer not to be lost.  West Memphis is one of those.....

I agree with ya 1000% on West Memphis, another one is Cicero, IL, just South of Chicago.
