Default Garmin zumo 665

I have the Spyder RT-S and plan to add the GPS assembly/kit. But instead of the Garmin zumo 660 offered by the dealer, I want to install the 665 since you get traffic, weather, and XM radio. Have any of you tried the 665?

Thanks

The Zumo 660 does support traffic, but you have to use the plug with the FM traffic receiver built in. I have thought about trying to modify the factory wiring to work in the FM receiver.

As for the mileage, it is based on simple miles since your last flagging the tank as full. I don't believe that it actually takes the fuel level from the Spyder.

what it does it double checks the mileage. you set max miles on a tank then set an alarm at what mileage you want to fill up at, but won't work unless it's hooked up

Not sure if it will fit, but they seem to use the same interface. I will have to do some more investigation.
