• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Plug for Garmin Zumo

It appears from your profile you have a 2012 RTL. If you have the Zumo that came with that machine then you do not need a power cord,all you need to do is put it in the mounting cradle in the center of th handlebars. If you have a different Zumo,then no there isn't a place to plug it in you will have to make one.
 
I have the 12 RTL, put Tri-axis handlebars on for the wife. The mount no longer fits, there is a new one. I have ordered the part to mount the Zumo mount to the handlebars of my F3S.

The question is, is there a connection in the wiring harness of the F3 that I can plug the plug that is on the Zumo Mount into. On the RTL, you just plug it in. Has one of those waterproof compression connectors on the end of it.
 
Thank you for the further information. I am sorry I don't know anything about F3. Hoprfully someone will jump in here soon to help you out.
 
I have an F3 but I use a switched power supply for my Zumo 590 that I installed in the frunk. I did, however, keep a link to this thread which may help you:

In that thread is a link to Wiredux and their 2 pin power bridge adapter that they also recommend but that link doesn't appear to be working for me today. Spyderpops can provide that Wiredux part to you and here's the link to it on their site: http://spyderpops.com/brands/WIREDUX.html

Hopefully this info should get you started. :thumbup:
 
When I got the 590 and handlebar mount for the F3 it came with everything needed, and it has the connector on the end. If you need a connector, PM me.

Mine mount has the connector on it, I am wondering if there is a place on the wiring harness to plug that connector into?

On the F3, the GPS power is on right side, under the small rear panel. You will have to remove the seats to be able to remove the panel. Make sure you check the polarity of the connector before you just plug in your GPS.
