With weather and vibration being a factor the Zumo is a excellent choice but costly. I have the 550 and love it.

I have several Garmin products for my cars and I have the Zumo 450 for my bike. Great products.

+1 for the garmin 550. I don't ride without it. Didn't think I would care about the music either.....but I caved, now have the xm also. PC nation.com had the best price online plus quick shipping.

Like the others say, go with the Zumo 450 or 550. gpscity.com or pcnation.com are both safe to buy from and have the best prices.

My fiancée's garmin is junk. It is always tring to get you turn where there isn't a road and will randomly re-direct you. It has done some random stuff.
