motorcycles:

makes it easy to operate

it easy to view your screen

gauge to warn you when its time to fill up

Navigate the Open Road
zūmo 550 comes ready to go right out of the box with
preloaded City Navigator® NT street maps and a hefty points of
interest (POIs) database, including motels, restaurants, fuel,
ATMs and more. Simply enter a destination, and zūmo takes you
there with turn-by-turn voice directions that speak street
names. In addition, zūmo accepts
customized points of interest such as school zones and
safety cameras and includes proximity alerts to warn of upcoming
POIs. It is also compatible with Garmin's Tour Guide™ — a free
utility that allows you to build and upload a database of POIs
that are encoded with photos and MP3 files.
A rechargeable, removable lithium-ion battery (three hour
typical use) is integrated into zūmo for trip planning or use on
foot. In addition, zūmo even accepts electronic maps — making it
the ultimate off-road navigator.
Add Optional Traffic, Weather, and Radio
With optional XM subscriptions and an XM antenna, you can
check the weather, move ahead of traffic and listen to the radio
when you travel with zūmo. As an alternative, zūmo can receive
optional TMC traffic alerts (in select cities) when used with a
compatible traffic receiver. Simply press a button on the
screen, and zūmo recalculates your route to avoid traffic
tie-ups.
Make Hands-Free Calls and Receive Wireless Voice Prompts
With zūmo’s Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can talk on
the phone safely without removing your gloves or helmet. Connect
zūmo to your Bluetooth-enabled headset/helmet and cell phone to
make and receive hands-free calls. You can even make phone calls
to POIs through zūmo’s Bluetooth interface. In addition, zūmo
transmits navigation voice prompts to your headset so you can
listen wirelessly.
Plan Your Adventures and Share Your Rides
zūmo 550 makes it easy to plan your next trip and share
routes with your riding buddies. Plan trips on your computer
before you start. Search for food and fuel stops and local
attractions. Then, transfer your route to zūmo and go.
At the end of the day, share your favorite places and rides
with other zūmo riders, and review your travels in Google™
Earth. SD card expansion makes it easy for storage and route
sharing. Download routes to share with your riding buddies —
even load mp3 files to your unit to enjoy tunes on the road. In
addition, JPEG Picture Viewer lets you share photos of your
adventures with friends and family.
