Factory nav and xm ?
This question might belong in aother catagory, but here goes.
 \\;
How easy is the factory nav to use ? Can it be adjusted and played with on the move. Can you download custom POY's. I have a Zumo, will the factory nav be useless in comparsion to my Zumo ?
 \\;
Next, is the factory XM easy to use ? Can you program preset channels in it like the Roadie ?
 \\;
Thanks..........

BigPapa, my neighbor has the factory and I have the ZUMO. He likes the factory but the screen is small thus hard to see and you have to have the CD in the unit, therefore you can't play a cd while navagating. I prefer the zumo but the factory is a cleaner install.He doesn't have the xm but I do with the zumo and believe it is the better unit, This probably doesn't help you. But I think it is more of personal preference type situation.

If you have the Zumo, I am not sure why you would want a factrory unit, They are overpriced and not nearly as flexible as the ZUMO. \\; The ZUMO is the latest and greatest and far better unit that the factory unit. \\; I have the \\;2730 with XM and the XM is completely programable like the Roadie you just have one less unit on the bars. \\; I don't think that you can download routes and POI data bases on the factory unit. \\; I looked at it on my 08 Ultra and very quickly decided to stay with the 2730. \\; I am not knocking the factory unit but for me the Garmin worked out much better. \\;

I don't have a choice on the matter, it comes with the bike, as well as the XM.
