Mounting Garmin Zumo GPS on a motorcycle IS doable – and we can help!
This kit fits all Zumo model GPS units.
However, we do not recommend this kit for the Zumo 660/665.
This kit mounts on a round bar: motorcycle handlebars, engine guard bars, etc. (3/4" to 1-1/4" diameters).
See the sizing chart under the "Fitment" tab.
Kit includes:
eCaddy Deluxe holding plate (chrome): multi-faceted lug offers
SIX different angles. Includes four application screws. Plate area
dimensions: 1-13/16" x 1-1/2" x 5/16" with standard "amps" pattern threaded holes (1.25" x 1.5")
Mounting bracket with UltraSecure (chrome): slender allen screw
that installs cross-wise after sliding the plate in means you'll
never lose your GPS!
OPTIONAL ITEMS
Optional Items can be added using the drop-down menus above. Details about each can be
found under the Related Products tab.
OPTION 1: ULTRATILT
The name says it all. Highly recommended!
OPTION 2: ULTRATECH
If you want to get your GPS, iPod, iPhone etc UP or OUT a bit ... The UltraTech is for you!
OPTION 3: POWER
If you prefer to run your electronics to your motorcycle's battery.
Zumo-specific kit for perfect operation!
Patent #449814S
ROUND BAR SIZE GUIDE (check bar diameter before ordering)
1-1/4": fits "big bar" kits; engine guard bars; some Harley-Davidsons
1-1/8": includes a 1-1/4" bracket with insert. For the tightest fit, choose this option if a) you need to mount on a bend or where cabling may interfere with bracket mounting, or b) if you have a slightly eliptical 1" bar. NOTE: This is the best round-mount choice for Harley Davidson Electra and Ultra Glides (also see Harley controls bracket)
7/8" and 3/4": includes a 1" chrome bracket with insert.
Have trouble reading the screen on your iPhone? Sun glare on your GPS?
Get Tilted!
The UltraTilt offers mazing "angle-ability" - tilt it wherever you need it! Installs between the eCaddy Deluxe
plate and the GPS, iPod, iPhone or satellite radio.
We highly recommend the use of the UltraTilt:
when line-of-sight is important (e.g., when following directions from a GPS)
the farther from the center you intend to mount your item, the more highly we recommend the UltraTilt
when using the Harley or Gold Wing switch housing mounts
Includes 14mm metric screws (4); nuts (4); 8-32 screws (2); and Washers (2)
If you've ever wanted or needed to get your GPS, iPod, iPhone, satellite radio or other electronics UP or OUT
a bit (for example, maybe it's too close to your tank or fairing)... The UltraTech is for you!
When used with the eCaddy Deluxe, your item can be mounted at not
just six angles - but TWELVE angles! Combine it with the UltraTilt,
and there's literally NO limit to where and how you can mount!
And there's MORE: The UltraTech plate can be bent up to 120 degrees!
Now you have another option for those hard-to-mount items!
NOTE: The Ultra-Tech plate is intended for use with the eCaddy mounting system.
Shown above with eCaddy Deluxe plate (additional $24.99). Dimensions: 5" x 2".

Zumo-specific power kit for perfect operation!
Cures poor visibility caused by glare and bright sun.
Provides greater display visibility and brightness.
Stops GPS display from reflecting in your windshield at night.
Won't interfere with GPS reception
Our Glare Guards are Soft and Flexible - won't hurt you... won't hurt your gear.
How It Works
The GPS anti-glare sun screen attaches with a narrow 3/8" strip of 'peel & stick' Velcro specially
formulated for warm conditions. It won't melt when exposed to hot sun, and can be easily removed when
you're ready... leaving little or no residue.
These GPS Glare Shields can remain on your device. They fold right over the display screen to cushion
your delicate touch-screen or color display with a soft layer of padded protection.
Choose from two sizes
Small fits GPS case widths from 3.5 to 4.5 inches
Medium fits GPS case widths from 4.5 to 5.5 inches
See Fitment Tab for additional details
Will not blow off!
We recommend your bike have a windscreen.
Unprotected from direct wind blast the visor may 'flutter' causing a distraction to the rider.
Your Garmin, TomTom, Magellan (etc) GPS will never lose power while you're
on the road! And no wiring to your motorcycle battery!

eCaddy Deluxe Garmin Zumo Mounting Kit - CHROME (for round bars) The tilt is what made it work
Reviewer: Randy P.
FOR a ZUMO 660/665:
The only mounting plate provided in the Zumo kit is the "hard wire" bracket for the motorcycle. If someone wants to use the eCaddy Deluxe as it is, they would have to hard wire the unit to the bike battery which mounts to bracket.
IMPORTANT: The mounting plate did not match the mounting holes to the GARMIN unit which hard wires to bike, holes off about 32 of inch therefore you MUST order the UltraTilt with it. But due to the rubber holes (4) they are pressed and seem to be like bushings. In a nut shell since it was rubber I was able to start the screw and it was snug but will not vibrate out either. Got all 4 to fit.
Further...
I do not want this look where others may. So I open the electronic unit, dismantle the wires going to the mounting bracket, silicone the hole neatly where the cord was. Fought the little spring back in (a must - holds release button in which holds unit to bracket).
Now I have your product mounted to the GARMIN plate (modified) so my Garmin will run off Lithium battery. If you want to solely run off the battery it cannot be done unless the customer does what I did. Keeps a clean look on the bike.
Final thoughts...
So if people use your product have to hard wire unit to the bike, fight (4) screws but other that it looks great to me and like the tilt that was what made it work for me.
The Garmin zumo 660 comes with array of mounting hardware - pretty barbaric for the kind of money you spend, "U" bolt that wraps around bars, balky knuckle set up pure junk.
