Not to jack the thread but I guess if I want the garmin 600 harley radio issues to work together on the 09SERG I will need to hard wire a headset like the ultras?

No, just run a 2.5mm stereo patch cable from the 660 harness to the aux in on the front of your radio (I'm assuming the RG has an aux in on the radio).  With that, the audio from the 660 will play in the bike speakers.

Are you talking about the harness that comes out of the hard wire mount? I tried plugging it into the plug on the side of the 600 but that didn't work.

One other thing to add if you are trying to hear music (MP3's) or verbal directions from your Zumo (if the 660/665's are like the 450/500/550's) it has to be externally powered (wired into a power source on the bike) otherwise you will not hear anything thru your radio even if it's plugged into the Aux port... Don't ask me how I know this.

How do you know that!

A call to Garmin.

My cigarette lighter plug was indicating power to it, but the wires weren't making a good enough connection in the plug.... no power to cradle = no sounds. If I had looked closer I would have realized the big battery icon displayed on my Zumo and realized it was operating on battery power.
