Garmin Zumo 595LM 590 powered motorcycle GPS mount installation 2018 Kawasaki Z1000SX touring 

Thanks very much for this along with your usb power socket video. Proved invaluable when removing bodywork to hard wire a Sat Nav to my Z1000SX without breaking anything!!

Just got one of these powered units on my (new to me) 08 Honda GoldWing. The previous owner gave it to me as part of the deal. Now I am getting familiar with it.

Good video thanks! Picking up my new ninja 1000sx next week. Have been trying to figure out which nav to get. Also how to connect it...this video I hope will help...👍

Hi Chisnsid, Great Video. I also own a Z1000SX Touring version and I have a wired Zumo 390LM at the moment and have also managed to get a deal on a 595LM. Plus will be heading to Troyes and the Jura Mountains in June. Did the USB socket accept a USB Stick with music and let it play through the unit. Also have you tried the spotify app on the unit? Now heading over to watch your previous clip on the installation of the USB at the front of the bike as i have had one sitting in the shed and haven't got round to fitting it. I have also ordered the big box of connectors from Ebay.lol. Sid

Hi there! Came across this video after watching the one on how to install a USB socket. That's my next project on my Ninja 1000sx 2020. In that video, I noticed you had the Quad Lock mounted on the universal SW-Motech GPS mount. The same one my dealer has installed on my bike to mount the TomTom on it. I'm getting rid of the TT in favour of a Quad Lock actually... Which seems to be the opposite direction of where you were headed in this video. Anyway, funny how I went through all the available QL mounts and figured the cycling stem mount might be the most elegant solution to fit between the GPS mount and my phone and keep it stable. How did you find it in terms of stability? Was your phone wobbling at all? I might go for a different option anyway. Found an unused RAM base and arm. It's screwed on by 4 screws instead of the 1 through the middle of the cycling mount. And the arm swivels around so gives me more flexibility I suppose. Perhaps I'll loose out on stability there... Would be good to have your opinion on this since you've some experience with the same mount and a Quad Lock. Anyways, good to have found another channel on useful stuff to enhance my Kawa! Keep it up! Cheers, Merlin

Thanks for sharing. Navigation usb port what are you using for? what does it do?

Well done sir ,I've got the same bike but mines a 2014 model.got a tom Tom rider 450 to fit just got to find a mount like yours .what bracket do you get to mount it just in front of gas tank.

Hi chisnsid I was wondering how you were finding the Garmin I have always held of because my phone has always done the job. I have a garmim for the car and have to say it is shit unless I put a postcode in. Is it touch screen for waypoints, Oh and you wired it the right way rather than the switched wires at the front because u dont have to switch the bloody bike on to plot a route every time or fiddle for the power button at the back

Is this unit support Thai voice, keyboard and menu. Something like ภาษาไทย in the setting menu. I plan to buy the EU unit on a website. And can it install free map?

What a waste of work .... there are 3 contact-switched connections available on the left front side of your bike ... You definetely didn't do your research .
