• 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.

Zumo 660 Weather Cap

I have searched and unable to find a weather cap for the Zumo 660. If anyone has one on an old 660 they do not use, I would like to purchase it from you.
Thanks
 
Are they not available from Garmin ??

I assume you are talking about the rubber cover for the bar mount connector......right ??
 
I assume that you have done a "Google search" for Zumo 660" and followed most of the likely leads.
I just did.....and followed a few......and it don't look good.

If nothing else, this thread convinced me to take better care of mine.

Is BRP still supplying a GPS with it's RT LIMITED ? If so, what model is it ??

Yes I spent hours following links all over. I did find it available in Australia but they don't ship to the USA. Yep, better not lose yours.
 
Since I bought a Kradellock I leave my GPS on the Spyder most all the time except when staying overnight on the road. The pictures below are of my Zumo 590 mount and the cap that came with it. I assume the 660 plastic cap is somewhat like the 590 one. Were I in spyderlady11's boots and left to my own devices I would get my hands on a piece of black plastic, take a hacksaw and my Dremel tool and some bits, cut it to the appropriate size and fashion it to fit the mount. Over a Colorado winter it would be a fun project. Heck, you could skip the plastic and make it out of a piece of hard wood. The hardest part of the job might be fashioning a rubber gasket to protect the mount contact pins. That gasket is the small rectangular one at the center of the backside of the cap.

BAD habit. Eventually it will be gone in 3 seconds or less. :yikes:

From your pictures, it appears identical to the one for the 660; the mounts likely are the same.

A zip lock bag would work. There are other better looking options probably too, like a plastic coin pouch, maybe held on with a "pony tail" elastic tie.

If it comes right down to it spyderlady, drop me a PM & we'll see what it takes to get one sent over from here! :thumbup:

I think the Kradellock was a good gamble. GPS has been locked on almost two years and 22,000+ miles -- lots of pit stops and meals. I am judicious about where I park too. Garage stored at home and GPS always goes into motel room overnight. Life's a risk.
 
Me too! But if there's only one then SpyderLady11 gets it.

Been serching high and low for it when some itchy hands took mine when i parked.
The Garmin 660 weather cap is not in production anymore and many places is out of stock.
Guess where i manage to purchase it...BMW Motorrad

Is that the plastisol or rubber cap?
 
It is the plastic

Yes, is the plastic weather cap.

I added a double sided tape magnetic phone holder with a phone band. So I’m able to use as a phone mount when I’m not using Garmin.
