Default GPS mounting

Dose anyone have any ideas of how to mount a gps to a bike Any suggestions would help out. When I ride I like to get lost and a map is difficult to pull out while riding down the road. Thanks.

Look at the link on the bottom of the page or you can look in J&P cycles catalog. HD has one in their catalog, I'm sure Dennis Kirk has one too. Or just do a search of the internet. They're all over the place--hope this helps!

Check the Garmin Zumo forum.

Lots of info on mounting systems for different types of bikes.

The Zumo 550 comes with a ram mount.

You can see mine in the sig pic. (by left grip)

i made my own, cut up a stock harness, use a bolt from my shield, it still comes on and off no issues but when locked in the shield helps to hold it in place...




it all plug up into a quick release plug that i got to run power to my stereo, or whatever needs power

I use the Garmin Nuvi 350. Bought a RAM mount from their site cost about $85.00. I then added XM radio and bought the same mount on Amazon.com for $35.00. I would check Amazon first. Live and learn.

Yup, Ram Mount is the best. I use two. One for my Zumo and one for my camera.
