I bought a used Garmin to try and save some money. I ended up with a Road Tech which is the Harley Davidson version of the 660. I am using it on my BMW, but it works great. You can wear your motorcycle gloves and still make the unit accept the touch screen inputs. The MP3 player works fine, but setting up playlist files is cumbersome and I can't find another program that would help. Although, once you build the playlists, it works well. The screen seems bright enough unless the sun is behind you, then the screen can be hard to read. The unit is heavy duty, and while I haven't ridden in the rain with it yet, I would think it is waterproof. Due to the size and weight plus the unique charging required via the bracket adapter, I don't think trying to use it in a car would be something I would want to do. The one thing I haven't been able to do is have it show me the different route options with time and miles when I put in a destination address. Overall, this appears to be a very good motorcycle GPS unit.Read full review

I am a long time user of Garmin GPS's and recently bought a 660LM for motorcycle traveling. After ten days of traveling in AR, MO, TN, GA NC I found the unit lost the signal several times a day and would direct me to routes that appeared to be either old logging roads or "proposed" roads on some state plat. This was a completely new experience and I ended up relying on my old standby's - paper maps - to ensure I reached my destinations. Otherwise the unit worked well ;-)

The Garmin Zumo line is really the only choice for touring motorcyclists... robust, waterproof, touchscreen designed for gloves, waterproof cradle with fused wiring harness to attach to bike's power source, and RAM mount included. This is NOT a cheap unit, but I feel you get what you pay for with the Zumo 660. Garmin even gives you MapSource on DVD which is ESSENTIAL for planning routes in advance. And, that's one of the best features of the Zumo 660... using MapSource and then transferring your saved routes and waypoints to the unit works as expected. The Zumo will follow YOUR routes, not take you where IT thinks you should go. Of course, like much advanced mapping software, there's a bit of learning curve with planning routes on your computer with MapSource and successfully transferring them to the Zumo. But, once you get it, planning routes it a fairly easy process. My new Zumo will be an integral part of my upcoming 10,000 mile motorcycle trip around North America this summer!Read full review
I just had the opportunity to test my new garmin Zumo 660 on the road and I can tell that so far I am extremely happy with it. Its worth the high price. First, the motorcycle mounting kit has a couple of mounting options and worked perfectly on the handle bar of my bike. The GPS features have some add-ons compared to other Garmin models for cars, however what I really liked is all the bluetooth and mp3 capabilities. I have a Samsung Omnia phone and a SENA SMH10 headset, the Zumo 660 works perfectly with them. The Zumo reads automatically my contacts from the phone allowing me to browse, make and answer calls from the screen. All the calls, directions instructions from the GPS are linked to the headset. I added a 8 Gb micro SD memory card filled with mp3 songs and the Zumo 660 can play them as well through the internal mp3 player. Pros: Communication capabilities with phone and headsets, mp3 player, large screen, 3D view and waterprof. Cons: The high price and the lack of an anti theft system, especially when you want to leave it mounted in your bike while you make a quick stop.Read full review
I have had other Garmin GPS' in the past, non motorcycle specific, this one is easy to use with gloves one, the split alphabet takes a little getting use to but is easy to use and your not hitting 2 or 3 different letters, like the lane indicator features. Like most GPS's still a little hard to see in direct sun light, but better than the others I have had. The wiring info needs to be a little more specif, but if you go to the Zumo info website you can find info to hard wire it to the bike. switching it from bike to car is easy with the two mounts, and it works well in both. If you travel a lot on a bike this is a good tool, I have had it in the rain and have had no problems with it. I ride nearly 20,000 miles a year, so it has been used a lot already.
