hey guys, is there a GPS that is weatherproof, has SPEED in LARGE NUMBERS as well as being an actual gps AND has bluetooth so you can hear directions in your helmet? thanks.

 

the Harley one. I had mine for 8 years, when it started to wear out I sent it in and they replaced it with a new one for around $150.00 and gave me a new warranty

 

I picked up a used Zumo 550 last fall, says on the box it has Blue Tooth, haven't got into the mechanics of how yet. Have a look on their site.

 

you will like it. Mine is the Zumo 660 and it has Bluetooth although I just use a single ear bud. I think the 550 replaced the 660

 

Garmin Zumo 665.

 

I have had a Garmin Zumo 660 for close to 10 years. Does all that you want, been through severe weather and keeps going strong. Since it, as well as the 665 have been discontinued for a couple years they can be found reasonably cheap. The latest motorcycle units are the 395 LM and 595 LM. If I ever need another I know without a doubt where to look.

The Garmin Motorcycle GPS zumo 595 is waterproof, bluetooth, but, not huge on the text. I wish they would update them, they are all 3+ years old now.

 

wow! seems pretty unanimous! Ive been using a car gps. no bluetooth and in the rain, I put saran wrap round it. Its only useful when I get lost, I can check it to find my way out.

 

I use a 660 and 665 and am happy with them. They are discontinued and finding things like spare mounts for the bike is tough (I just bought a 3rd bike so I need a mount for it).

I believe there are Nuvi (car) and Dezl (truck) GPS units that do have Blue tooth and speed. They are not water proof as you know but you can buy a waterproof case for them or slip a plastic bag over them. Many of the Long Distance riders go with the Nuvi 2797 I believe due to it's wide screen and far cheaper cost. Many use two (or more) GPS units on their bikes so it get's quite pricey

Also, quite a few have successfully waterproofed a Nuvi. Do a Google search and you should find a few sites for that including Youtube videos

 

I can't believe no one stated the obvious solution, buy a Harley with the Boombox and waterproofed GPS built in, blue tooth, and the screen size can be changed if I remember correctly. Only costs a little bit more to go first class.
