ZUMO 550 CRADLE
Pros: oem quality
Cons: none
This is what I needed to share the use of the GPS between
two motorcycles with minimum fuss. This is the identical
item that is supplied with the Zumo 550. All I needed to
make both bikes ready to accept the GPS was this part and
the power cable I also purchased.
The original cradle is still going strong after 2 Alaska
rides and 50000 mile.
I always cover the bike when overnight so water damage has
not been an issue. My windshield keeps most of the rain off
the GPS when moving.

ZUMO MOUNT SUCEPTIBLE TO MOISTURE DAMAGE
Pros: sturdy, secure mount.
Cons: prone to moisture-related corrosion
After just over two year's service my Zumo would no longer
power up when placed in its factory mount. I had to turn
it on manually. I subsequently discovered that this is a
fairly common moisture-related problem -- corrosion of pins
and eventual internal shorting. Some report that Garmin is
aware of this flaw and will replace the mount when under
warranty. When I contacted Garmin USA they were initially
helpful and provided some indication that they would
replace the unit (which was out of warranty), but abruptly
punted me off to their Canadian distributor. I declined to
contact them since their list price was significantly more
than that of GPS City.

ZUMO 550 LOCKING CRADLE
Pros: works great in dry weather
Cons: can't be used in wet weather
Be very carefull with this motorcycle mount, it will not
hold up in the rain. First time used in the rain it shorted
out on trip to Bar Harbor, ME.

MOTORCYCLE MOUNT
Pros: locks-in gps with security screw
Cons: pins corrode within a season when left uncovered
An essential componant. The zinc coated pins required to be
coered with the attached boot when the GPS is not in use.
Uncovered pins will corrode rendering the GPS useless once
the battery wears down.

WORKS AS DESIGNED
Pros: easy to install and
Product does what it is supposed to do. Be
forewarned: prongs started to break off after a
year of use. Replacement is already starting to
corrode --yes cap is used.

BEST CUSTOMER SERVICE OF ANY ONLINE SITE! - I've ordered many ram
parts from this place for years. I've never had an issue. This time
I created one. I placed an order for 2 items with next day shipping.
I then realized I failed to place an order for a 3rd item. I emailed
customer service explained what happened and the additional item I
wanted shipped and they got it to me on time! It was awesome!
Review of this specific item - This is my 2nd cradle. I put it on my
2nd bike so I don't have to keep switching back and forth. The first
one has 12K miles on it and has not given me a problem. This one is
working great!
