Easy to see and use with gloves. Real time weather is great.
I use the 665 in both the car and motorcycle. It comes with two mounts so you just move the unit. I purchased the 665 for the weather channel. If you don't need weather get a less expensive unit. The display can be read in bright sun but shade helps. The controls are easy to work wearing gloves. The menus are simple to navigate but sometimes things you use often, like fuel tracking, are buried too deep to be convenient.
The weather radar has helped avoid both major rain and snow storms. It is very useful to know if the storm is local or part of a large system. The feed shows a current view and some history so you have a sense of storm movement. You need a sat radio subscription with the weather added on.
Traffic, which is also available, does not seem worth the extra cost. My experience is the reports are out of date. When you arrive at a location you are more likely to find the announced problem has cleared or discover an unanticipated problem than you are to actually avoid a blockage.
Satellite radio is spotty. Comes and goes with a pattern I have yet to figure out. Very susceptible to blockage by trees and buildings. If you mostly ride interstates and highways it might be better but not so good where I usually ride. You need the basic subscription to get the weather.
I listen to the directions and music through a SENA SMH-10 headset using bluetooth. Volume is fine at lower speeds even with ear plugs. At higher speeds wind noise is a problem. I connect my phone to the Garmin so that it will interrupt (and pause) music. You can connect the phone and the Garmin directly to the headset.
The device looks like any other memory stick to a PC so you can drag-and-drop photos, music and videos. Route and navigation info is managed by Garmin's Base Camp software. Install a memory card for your digital content. If you put much on the internal memory there will not be enough free space to load and process map updates.
On a more general note, the 665 navigation is usually accurate but can be wrong. In many cases it does not have the location of the specific address and directs you to a range of addresses so your destination is near but not at the point selected. Another occasional problem is that it will direct you off and then back onto an interstate because the exit/entry is shorter than taking the road.
Installing the 665 is simple. Cord length is ample to reach from the bars to the battery. There are also cables for the satellite antenna, audio in for an MP3 player, microphone in. I actually wish these cables were shorter because I route them to my tank bag.
My unit was stolen. The Garmin security features will prevent it from being useful to the crook. I'm planning to get a locking mount but don't have one to recommend at present.
The Base Camp software is Garmin's mapping application. You can identify points-of-interest, create, load and process routes and download them to the device. You can also upload track (where you actually went) information from the device. The software is somewhat primitive but adequate to the job.
Overall I'm happy with the feature set and performance.

Everything you need in one box
The GPS navigates well everywhere I have been. It also integrates well with helmet communication, phone, and gps. I have phone calls, navigation instruction and siri satellite entertainment. Also i have loaded playlists, topo maps as well as navigation maps for around the world. It works very well. Even the touch screen works pretty good with gloves on although that takes a bit of practice.
I have been using all kinds of GPS for many years and this one is the most complete.
Works very well.

Answer:
After speaking with Garmin Tech Support it was explained that the GPS can only support one connection to a Bluetooth headset. However you can get around this by using something like the Sena SM10 Dual Stream Bluetooth Stereo Transmitter. The SM10 comes with a 3.5mm 3-pole Stereo Audio Cable which you would plug into the GPS. The SM10 would then broadcast two Bluetooth signals that the rider and passenger could connect to, which would allow them to hear everything coming from the GPS.3 months ago
Answer:
No. The unit will only pair with a single headset. You may be able to solve this problem if you are using SENA headsets by connecting the Garmin to the SENA SM10 dual stream transmitter. This will give you a "party line" for your Garmin, phone and audio sources. Unfortunately there is no connectivity standard so a SENA unit only works with other SENA units.Age: 55-64

Answer:
Yes,I use a cardo unit and it allows me to link to the XM and then share with my rider. I don't know if two units can link to the GPS simultaneously.

Answer:
Depending on the connection used, you can plug the device directly into your motorcycle for a constant charge.4 months, 1 week ago
Answer:
Yes. The unit has long cords that will reach easily to the battery. I hard-wired mine to a fuse block. You can also connect to a plug-in power source by installing the correct connector on the cord.Battery life is between 2 and 3 hours.
