Looking for a sealed waterproof enclosure for your device on a motorcycle? There’s not a lot of choices out there. One excellent choice is to select the waterproof Garmin Zumo GPS series. These are excellent GPS units, but let’s face it, $700 is a lot for a GPS. The functionality of a Zumo is on par with many GPS models from Garmin, TomTom and Magellan in the $150 range.
Why worry about waterproof? This is important for those that wish to leave the GPS attached to the bike overnight, or ride in the rain. If you don’t do any of this, read a different post on our blog (we have lots of good information).
But what if you don’t feel like spending $700 on the waterproof models? Consider a waterproof bike mount. These combine a standard mount with a weatherproof case. RAM Mount makes an excellent high quality line of waterproof cases called the Aqua Box.
RAM Mount Aqua Boxes provides excellent waterproof protection. Featuring a clear, touch through screen so that you may view your electronics as well as use their function keys while in place. There is even a place for a small lock to serve as a theft deterrent. Ideally suited to Motorcycles and ATVs, these keep your portable devices safe, dry, and accessible.
There are multiple sizes available. Most popular are the Medium Wide models (RAM-HOL-AQ6u) suitable for most GPS models made by Garmin, TomTom, Magellan and Navigon. A very popular size is the Medium model (RAM-HOL-AQ2u) which suits the Apple iPod, iPhone, Microsoft Zune, Dell DJ and many other MP3 players. Each case comes with padding within to ensure that slim units sit flush against the lens. The rear of each box has a punch-out to provide access for cables and wires.
Both of these cases are available coupled with a motorcycle mount, windshield mount and marine mount. These combinations provide the best value if you need a mount as well as the case. The manufacturer provides a lifetime warranty on their products.
