Aimhigh Posted December 30, 2007 Share #1 Posted December 30, 2007 Can anyone explain the difference between the Garmin C550; Nuvi 550; and the Zumo 550? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuddyRich Posted December 30, 2007 Share #2 Posted December 30, 2007 Differences in screen size is what pops in my mind. I believe the Zumo is the only one that is waterproof and made specifically with the motorcycle rider in mind. But it also comes with a car mount Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the Zumo 550 and really like it. It is water resistant. (I would never say water proof) It has a touch screen and left handed control buttons. I believe, outside of the Tom Tom Rider it's the only GPS designed specifically for bikes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aimhigh Posted December 30, 2007 Author Share #6 Posted December 30, 2007 thanks guys. You all talk highly of the Zumo 550 and I guess that's the one I will zero in on. I just thought a less folks at the GPS store are more interested in selling the models they need to clear. Appreciate the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Midrsv Posted December 30, 2007 Share #7 Posted December 30, 2007 I think this is correct. I have the Zumo 550 and really like it. It is water resistant. (I would never say water proof) If it is not waterproof it is darn close. Last summer I rode through storm that forced me into a rest area and the bike sat there in a downpour until the rain let up. The Zumo is still working. DT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
