Im sure this has been asked and answered before (but heck if i can find it). I have a Zumo 550 and associated stuff (craddle, power line, etc) and wish to fit it to my forthcoming 2002 K1200LT. I have asked a local bike spares person and all they can come up with is a mount which fits in the unused mirror hole on the grip - but this is not what I want. I would prefer it mounted centrally - perhaps like this one:
The problem is - where would I get the required bracket from? Someone has suggested that the BMW ZUMO satnav bracket is the same as this and is available to buy. Is this true? Or does anyone else have a supplier for the required bracket? Im not good at fabrication so I cant make one.
The other question is where to connect the power to for the Zumo 550? I have never dug around on the bike so have no knowledge of where to draw the power from. Can anyone provide information on this?
Finally, how to plug the audio output of the Garmin in to the sound system on the LT. Once again, I have no idea how this might be accomplished but I would like the sound of either the satnav voice or mp3s on the garmin to come out of the K1200LTs speakers. Can anyone provide any advice?
