|  Garmin Zumo 550 installed
For Christmas I was looking for a GPS that I could use in my truck and also on my bike. I wanted one that had good reviews, lots of features, and that had everything in the box for both my truck and bike. After some extensive searching, I came across the Garmin Zumo 550. You can read up on the features at https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=135&pID=414 Since it was winter, I only got to use it in my truck. I have used it on many trips since I travel with work and it is excellent. I never leave home without it. I just now got around with installing the mount on my bike for it which came in the package. The total install was less than 30 minutes. Running the power wire under the tank took the longest. I have been able to take it on a few short rides 30 min - hour any where from 40-60 miles. It is extremely accurate as it was in my truck. It also showed me how inaccurate the Speedo is on the bike. Up to 45 miles per hour, it matched the Speedo. After that it starts to get off and the Speedo shows anywhere from 6-10 miles per hour faster than you are going. Overall, I enjoy having this as when I took some new routes home, I could see how the road would be up ahead as they were very windy roads.  . I know that the next thing you are asking is where are the pics. I have two sets. One just the mount and one with the GPS in the mount. If you have any questions on it, let me know.
