Default My phone holder ideal

I had a Boom tank pouch for my phone but didn't like the audio cable running across the tank and the fact the phone would sometimes over heat in direct sun. So for awhile I just put the phone in the center pouch of my HD 3 pouch fairing bag. But once a added a charging cable for the phone it would no longer fit. So I pulled off the removable left pouch (I never used it anyway) and but 3 snaps on the Boom pouch and put it in it's place. I works great. The only problem is it's not at a very good angle if you're running a GPS app on the phone.

You'd think Harley would have already come out with something like this.

great idea, simple, looks very good. Some aftermarket will be on that soon as they see it. Good job.

Nice. Makes me wish my fairing bags had snaps.
