Garmin zumo 220

 

Very robust. Good motorcycle mounts. Battery life good and battery is replaceable if necessary. Finds satellites quickly. Mac software has 'scenic' routing choice (although this doesn't appear on the sat-nav's own routing options, unfortunately)

Mac software is terrible -- slow, with awful searches and unintuitive interface. Importing routes is convoluted and frequently crashes the unit. Routing choices sometimes strange. Screen hard to see in sunlight -- could do with a visor like the Urban...

Has Some Issues

 

The Zumo 220 pairs to a Cardo Scala Rider G4 headset as a Cell Phone Device, preventing me from also pairing my cell phone to my headset. The last paired device (Zumo or phone) to the headset wins. The Erase button is not large like the alphabet and it...
