G.A.R.M.I.N Global Positioning System (G.P.S) Z.U.M.O series are a powerful navigation system for motorcycle. It is very easy to install to your motorcycle if you know how to do it appropriately. Therefore, if you could follow through the below 5 simple steps while you are installing your G.P.S system, you could be get it done in an afternoon and start using it right after.
So, what are the 5 simple steps? It is this...
First, you need to find the two disconnected wires in the cowl behind the headlight of your motorcycle. Now, you should connect the power to the mount of the G.A.R.M.I.N G.P.S Z.U.M.O. Make sure that you use a voltmeter to determine the polarity of the wire and connect the wires on the mount to the wires in the cowl behind the headlight
After the power is set, you should now install the handlebar base for the G.P.S. You could wrap the U-bolt around the handlebar and guide the ends through the handlebar base by using the wrench to tighten the nuts to secure the base. Or, you could install the handlebar base to the clutch or brake clamp bracket by removing the two factory-installed bolts from the motorcycle 's clutch or base clamp bracket. You will then need to guide the bolts from the G.P.S through the handlebar base, spacers and clamp bracket and tighten the new bolts to secure the base.
After setting up the handlebar base, you can attack the base plate piece to the G.P.S 's mount. Now thread the flathead bolts through the mount and base plate pieces and you should then add the nuts to the ends of the bolts and tighten them securely by using a wrench
Now, you could attach the base plate to the handlebar base by attaching the bottom of the double socket arm to the ball on the handlebar base by snapping them together. After you tighten it and hold everything in place, you can now adjust the mount for better visibility and then tighten the knob on the double socket arm to secure it.
Lastly, you can install the G.A.R.M.I.N G.P.S receiver to the mount and plug with the power cable. Now flip up the lever located at the top. Flip the magnetic weather cap down underneath and snap the receiver into the mount and flip the lever at the top. Tighten the security screw at the front of the lever to complete the whole installation process.
Warning: Do not neglect the above tips if you want to install your G.A.R.M.I.N G.P.S Z.U.M.O properly.
