[QUOTE=CVO SG;16454899]Thanks, Not sure of what pic you are referencing though. The mount on my bars is for my phone and cup holder. Made a single mount from SS to mount both items. Anyways
Look at page 72 2nd post look at first pic looks like same bars like yours but in chrome has nice chrome case with visor for the GPS

You could use this mount if you want something not on the bars or fairing....

Also, to a whole other group, the smartphone users, I hear your statements about being shockproof, water resistant, etc, etc. Currently using a couple smartphones, Droid Turbo and Galaxy S7 Edge. The edge is supposedly water resistant but I would surely not try to use it in a downpour as I have hundreds of times with my 660/Roadtech.
This is all from someone that has been there, done that with it all regarding GPS. Done my fair share of mapping and frankly just too old and tired of it. Best of luck!!!

Not at all picking at you but best guess is you don't ride in the rain much? I only say that as well before I went Zumo I tried the car type Garmin units on bikes. They worked fine until the terminals got wet after numerous rain storms.

I have had this on my bike for about 5 years, mounted it to the mirror hole on the clutch side.

They make GPS cases to help in wet riding conditions. If I know the weather is going to be iffy on my trip, I use this case. They have other sizes as well.
