I don't like the gas door to begin with, wish it opened forward. I have been hoping to see one of those mounts on a bike before I buy one. As far as it being to low and out of the sight line I guess the Road King guys should duck tape their they're speedo, same location. I like the looks of it because it's not in your face and the Mrs. can't see it

This is mine that uses the center windshield screw to secure it, and it puts the gps right in your sight of view. I would hate to have to try to look down to view my nav.

With your 120R I'm surprised you can afford to blink, let alone.....

Yeah, I agree with you that it doesn't seem too low for my use, especially since there typically is a GPS mount that adds a little length and height. I'm surprised that no one here has one to be able to post some pictures, especially with a lot of people here using GPS. I'm pretty sure I don't want one mounted as high as the windshield, in part to not being a tall person and don't want the feeling that I'm having to 'look over' it.

The door opens the way it does by law. Seriously. In the event of a front end collision, if the fuel door sprung open, as you slide forward, the open door won't cause damage to your private parts. If it opens the other way, goodbye privates.

I'd assure appreciate if someone could post a couple of pictures of it installed on their bike (or a link to somewhere posted on the Internet) with the thumb-screw and mount removed so I can see what's left. With the Bat-Wing, I'm thinking that the fuel door mount be the best and easiest to do.

Thank you.
I just installed my fuel door gps holder and I just use my iPhone 6 otter defender case's belt clip holder and it works great! I leave always have my phone with me and when I'm riding, I use my phone for gps and monitor my bike stats with my v&h fuel pack fp3. Works great and you can still see your radio just fine
