Customize your ride with the Garmin zūmo 550, the rugged motorcycle navigator that's born to ride.

Designed by bikers, zūmo's motorcycle-friendly features make it easy to operate while in the saddle. From back roads to rallies, its preloaded maps and high-end navigation features give you the freedom to go where you want.

Durable and intuitive, zūmo is built specifically for motorcycles.

The Garmin 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, which includes motels, restaurants, fuel, ATMs and more. Simply enter a destination and the 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 warm of upcoming POIs. It is also compatible with Garmin's Tour Guide, a free utility which allows you to build and upload a database of POIs that are encoded with photos and MP3 (music / voice) files.

A rechargeable, removable lithium-ion battery (three hour typical use) is integrated into the zūmo for trip planning or use on foot. In addition, zūmo even accepts electronic maps, making it the ultimate off-road navigator.

Plan your adventures / Share your rides

Mounted Example

The 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.

zūmo 550: the navigator that's born to ride.

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 (points of interest) through zūmo's Bluetooth® interface. In addition, zūmo transmits navigation voice prompts to your headset, so you can listen wirelessly.
