I see some real bad reviews. If I don't buy this for use on my motocrycle what do I buy?

Bad Review? This is the greatest GPS ever! Best for a motorcycle. Only negative is the price. I had a Garmin 450 before and the 665 is so much improved. If you don't mind the price you will love it.

The only negative item I have experenced is needing a sun shade to see well in bright sun light. I wouldn't purchase another gps.

Buy the Garmin. I had a Tom Tom Rider 2 but it "went south" after 4 years and there was no service. There were features on the Tom Tom that I liked better but the screen was too small and it would not connect to my headset consistently.

If u buy a regular gps, it wont be waterproof, glove friendly or withstand direct sunlight. Only thing I didnt like was the price. If u like garmin, this is it

I didn't see the bad reviews, not sure how to answer that. I haven't had any problems with mine. It has a lot of nice motorcycle friendly features. Another brand just came out with a M/C friendly package but nearly as many features. Even if I'm just out for a ride and get lost I just put the Zumo in the cradle and dial in where I want to go and it takes me there. try reading a map while dring a motorcycle, no thanks.

Hello Sue, Yes I have read those reviews myself and have been somewhat perplexed by them. Yes it did make me apprehensive before I replace my Zumo 550 due to needing more memory for internal maps. Thus far my immediate riding group has found the 665 to be near flawless, let me explain. My immediate group consists of a Honda's ST 1300, GL 1800 Trike conversion & myself a GL1800 Goldwing, we are VERY serious riders. Two of us have been to all 4 corners of the USA in the last 12 months, my next oil change is 167,500 miles, just finished the 250,000 mile threshold with my last Goldwing and this one. All of us have the 665 with combined miles using the 665 of around 100,000. Today it is fantastic, not suffering all of the ills and discontent that have been posted. Big screen that can be custom configured in sooooo many ways to suit yourself, it is incredible, mp3 capacity off the chart. I have had as many as 1400 +/- music files on the storage card for listening. These units sit on the handle bars taking a daily beating in the sun through Death Valley or in the pouring rain of north east Maine. Honestly don't know what these reviewers want or are experiencing? No I am not a cheerleader for Garmin, but for the task these units are asked to complete, nothing else will work. If we had to change something, we would like the screen a bit brighter, in harsh sunlight you have to shade the screen with your hand. Not an uncommon problem with many screens though, I use the Glare Stomper Shade sold very cheap, helps a bunch. My Zumo 550 took brutal punishment, survived hurricane Irene, Death Valley and sooooo much more, the 665 shows no difference in performance. Best of success.

I have one and I love it. To answer your question, it'll be perfect for you to ride, also great price to. You won't be disappionted.

I'm fairly certain it should be no problem to fit on a motocycle. I purchased one for my moped and there is a lot of excess on the cover. Plus there is elastic pieces which helps stay on the wheels. Should work no problem! Hope that helps.

I no longer recommend this product. A fake might be safer. Mine swelled on the back and split as though it was going to explode. Mophie was no help, they said, since the case was out of warranty.

If your rep says yes, then try it. I personally would play it safe and use the charger for the phone with it, and the one for the headphones with them. No funny business in my way of thinking.

I don't suggest buying it . I bought it for my 2010 fat boy custom.rode literally less then 20 miles was coming into town down shifted and it snapped in half.. very poorly made . Then I sent it back and never received my money or a replacement

It should be. I have a Galaxy S4, so I am assuming it will be compatible with the MotoX as well. Hope this answer helps!

I would suggest to get a name brand one. I just use this for bmx and dirt jump style bikes and it is pretty wimpy and doesn't hold very well. the parts aren't very strong. hope this helps you out with your purchase.

My only suggestion is to check the reviews. If there is a large number of reviews and the good outweighs the bad you should be fine.

Just for your information, I gave this item a bad review. Alot of problems and I returned it. I went to the ScalaRider g9 and it was well worth the money. Absolutely no problems. My suggestion is to return it because there are more problems than you will want to deal with. They don't go the distance they advertise and they won't stay on the helmet. The scalarider can pair with up to 9 other people along with a GPS and your phone. I no longer use my goldwing intercom system. this is the best suggestion that I can give you. I spent about 4 months researching and buying(and returning) intercoms and the one I suggested is the best to date. Just for your information, I gave this item a bad review.

What a great loaded question for me to answer! I like the kazam bike, if you want the scooter style foot board it's a decent buy. Our bikes are built to ride like bicycles, they look like bicycles! The quality on our bike is second to none, you would need to spend close to $200 to find anything that compares to our bike when it comes to finish and parts. For a really great review http://www.twowheelingtots.com/the-best-balance-bike-for-your-dollar/

Maybe the best answer is "Sorta." I have both the Cygolite Metro 360 on my wife's bike and a Surfas True 500 (the Surfas is more expensive I think) on mine. I prefer the Surfas style of release, but both seem to be secure and reasonably easy and fast to take on and off.

Arthur, I had one of these mounted on the rear view mirror arm on my motorcycle. Although it is a fairly tight grip...I wouldn't rely on it, as my phone vibrated off on an uneven stretch of road one day and took a tumble along the freeway and was smashed to smitherines. I don't feel it's strong enough for the use of a motorcycle IMO. Hope that helps!

This is a small battery for a camera in the woods i think a scooter would need a much more robust battery get the info off your battery then google it try some big battery site like battriesplus.com as well as amazon
