I have the Road Glide version from them. It does seem a little pricey at first glance. But it's almost like a piece of jewelry, the way it's made.

This might give you some options:

I used one between my GPS mount and the fairing mount to make the angle adjustable. Worked great once I got it tight enough to not move until told to do so.

That looks like a great option. Is the hole spacing the same as the GPS mount? Also, did you have to make any modifications?

Yes, it is AMPS spacing.
AND
Yes, I did have to make a bit of a mod to use the 660 mount. Easy to do (because it is plastic), and I don't even remember the details. Also, it is hidden when mounted. I don't know if the mod applies to any other devices, but I would think that this is pretty universal.

That bracket looks straight forward from here and easy to duplicate, without the logo. UltraNutZ could replace it.... Any of your friends a millwright/metal worker?

Yes that is a crazy price. Make one, it's easy enough.
Use 1/4 inch aluminum or stainless to fit your space. Add a 2inch ram mount, the 2 hole mount then drill a hole for the wiring and use a rubber seal, the kind that slips over the fairing. I just did this for a guy that had a goldwing, a little different mounting because of how the fairing is but it took about 2 hours to make. this included polishing the Aluminum

There is a lot of good suggestions here.

Fixing to turn cool here and I will get bored so I may just make one to see how hard it is to make and get the angle right.
When I do this I usually give it away to see how it works. I just like to make stuff. I am using the fairing mount from HD on my street glide. Oh there is a hot plug in the fairing for a gps.

How married are you to your existing pouches?

I went with the two pouch design from T&T fabrications. More photos on the page link below of my install I provided to them.

That's slick. Looks like you could even use the HD mount with that.
