Is there a solution for this? I have an old Zumo 550 on the Gold Wing and I would like to move the Nav 5 back and forth!

Yep, I move my Nav from my GS to a couple of other bikes by using a Garmin mount available on Amazon with a compatible clamp kit. I run it off my PDM 60 or on some bikes just an automotive style relay so it powers up the GPS when the bike is on and turns off when the bike is off.
No joy... there's only the mounts, not the cradle! Any hints? A link?

Thank you, Virkdoc. How could I determine which are the positive and negative wires coming out of the unit without damaging it?

They put Nav on bikes now?
I'm not too knowledgable on the water cooled bikes...but guessing you could chase the wires and check for continuity to make sure the two cradles are wired the same.

No help from me I'm old school and use the sun and stars to navigate. Actually I'm too cheap to buy a GPS and use my phone.
But if you want to move the Zumo between bikes why not just buy another dock and wire that into the other bike??

That Zumo mount I posted a link to will mount up on the RAM ball adapter shown in the "frequently purchased together" on the Amazon site. The Zumo mount has several more wires in it other than just power - XM, audio, etc and I just clip those off and just use it to power the Nav IV, V, or VI that I have. Run the power wires from the cradle to a power distribution module or automotive relay to get switched power.
