Default gps mount

I'm looking for a GPS mount. Wanted to know if one was better than another. Can you share a pic and/or outcome.

I was checking them out at Amazon. They have a mount that goes in the CD player. I thought it was cool. And I don't use my CD player. Anyone with experience???

Want to get one here asap. Thanks, guys.

I use RAM mounts. ROCK solid. I bolt under the mirror. Here are pics with my PV2, but it is the same parts I used on my GPS on my '11

Imagine sitting at a light at idle. That thing will shake your GPS to death.


Not sure what you ride, but here are some (not cheap) options for you. The beauty of these is, it puts the GPS in the center high, and in your line of vision, so you keep your eyes on the road.


98-13 Road Glide http://www.ironacesspeedshop.com/roa...rley-davidson/

Rushmore Road Glide http://www.ironacesspeedshop.com/rus...-glide-models/

A drop in the bucket compared to what you spent on the BatCycle.


Not a batwing, but you can see the value of having the GPS in your line of sight. That is an Iron Aces mount on the Power Vision

I installed a RAM mount ball on the inner fairing and attached the GPS to that. It does shake at idle but it's perfect otherwise.

It's a drop in the bucket for a baller like you. Does sit nice. You hide the wiring in the fairing?
