For the Zumo XT. XT2 and Garmin Tread 5.5 GPS units

The Zumo XT is a great GPS from Garmin, worlds ahead of the previous generation Zumo models, but Garmin left off an important feature. Earlier Zumos had a security or anti-tamper screw that made it harder for someone to snatch your GPS when left on the bike during a stop. Garmin bothered with no such feature on the Zumo XT.

When I first got the XT, a couple of things stood out. The screen- awesome! So much better than the 450/550, 395/6, 590 and 660/665 models.... The early production Garmin powered cradle latch did not instill confidence, but is actually quite secure in practice. The newest ones engage with a solid click. Nice. The bad news, there is no lock or anti-tamper device as delivered by Garmin.

Looking around at locking mounts on the market and there are only a couple of choices -- one is HUGE and HEAVY! It actually weighs almost twice as much as the GPS alone. One is just a bit clunky, uses a traditional key and is unfortunately hard to come by in the US. One is pretty small, but ungodly expensive.

The design goal for us is a security mount that makes it hard to steal the GPS when you leave it on bike for a few minutes while you get gas, or eat lunch or take a leak... It needs to be sleek, elegant, light, robust and unobtrusive. It needs to be easy and quick to use and not break the bank. It needs to work with any mount that fits the Garmin XT powered Motorcycle AMPS pattern base.

With that design goal, and the help of a half dozen real world riders having input and doing active testing for us, we created the MotoPumps® Zumo XT Security Mount.

The MotoPumps® Security Mount installs between the Garmin Zumo powered cradle and your chosen GPS mount that attaches to your motorcycle. The mount is thin enough that it allows you to re-use the stock mounting hardware included with your GPS mount. The security pin locks the GPS in place on the powered cradle that came with your Zumo XT and prevents the release plunger from being depressed. Installation takes a matter of minutes on any GPS mount compatible with the Garmin Zumo XT.

A few quick turns of the 304 stainless steel security pin with it’s proprietary security key and you can lock or unlock your GPS. The billet 6061 aluminum plate is light, robust, corrosion resistant and unobtrusive.

Kit contains security plate, security pin and two security keys.  

Works with any brand GPS mount that is compatible with the Garmin Zumo XT XT2 or Tread 5.5.
