    If you put Zumo 595 or TomTom xyz in the "Search" block, you will see a plethora of threads that relate to how people felt about certain things.

    Most any Garmin unit will fill the bill.

    Is your Ram mount for your phone the same as this...? I would like to buy all three together, but not sure if that is what I need!

    If money is an issue, BuyDig.com has Zumo 665's for $399.99. That's a new one with a XM radio puck.

    That's cause he probably couldn't find a dearth


    BTW re: topic, two things.

    1. Garmin has fantastic customer service...in America...who (that?) speak engrish!

    2. re room. The fantastic customer service (see #1 above) found out I hadn't deleted (or they didn't automaticvally delete) some files from a prior map version...she walked me throug it.

    and
    3...(not one of my TWO things) I have an old 1340 with lifetime traffic, I didn't get lifetime maps because I never expected it to last this long!! great unit
    I used a ram mount bolted to the center glove compartment...Amazon has ram mount cradles for most Garmin models...fantastic combo

    She's been quite the player lately since Isleen has been down for a few weeks going through some air frame changes.
    Very proud of her. Doing quite well for a 21 year old Harley.
