Thanks!
I wanted to keep my bike looking clean and didn't want a bunch of stuff all over the handlebars. That was one of the reasons I went with the Fatboy.
The power cord tucks nicely in with the rest of the stuff going down from the headlight, and without my GPS on the bike, the only thing you see is the Ram Mount, which still looks great because it's shiny and small, but still solid.

That is nice. I do not see a power supply when its off the bike. Do you tuck the wire or do you have an aux plug that you use to power up?

I hardwired a power cord to my ignition and when the GPS is not on the bike, I just tuck the connector end (that goes to my GPS cradle) down into the wires coming from the handlebars and then go together with the wires from the headlight. It neatly tucks away and doesn't look like there's any added wire.

The 660 is not as big as you think...it's the same form factor as any of the widescreen Nuvi line. Please do hit the Zumo forums first...there's been a few bugs with them...they just came out last month.

Man that is a nice setup. I wish I could see it in person, so I can have someone set it up for me that way. This is AWESOME

What will be a good CLEAN mount for a Fatboy for the Zumo 660? And where can I get it install?
I like to have something within the setup that ngoti8tor did. I like it super clean!!!!

I'll give you the link, otherwise you will not be able to find it on eBay doing a search. I accidentally came across it after doing a search that seemed like it lasted a year.

Just look for the mounts that say they fit your brand of GPS, then choose your handlebar size. There's a way to check and measure so that you won't order the wrong size. Just look at the site once you choose the style and size that you think it is, and it'll tell you how to measure. The guy was great to deal with.
