RAM mounts
Fitted 2 RAM mounts on my bike to give me some options. I carry a video camera, a Sat Nav, a cup holder, not all at once but I like the idea of keeping my options open. I used 3 different sizes of RAM arms and I can interchange as required.
This is the right side fitting
This is the left side fitting
This is it when I dont need anything
This is the water bottle fitted
This is the cup fitting, note you can move the cup holder to suit

I did the same thing, only I used the loops around the handlebars to mount the RAM on each side. Your set-up is cleaner looking, but I don't mind the clamps on the bars. I hard wired to the extra wires on the headlight. I was going to use the cig lighter but would have to splice wires.

I keep a ram mount on the left side handlebar for my Zumo 550, and i also have one mounted on the left side saddlebag guard (by my left hip) for a Cobra Handheld CB radio. for a while i used it on the handbar as well, but i round it distracted me too much being mounted that high.

The sat nav (TOMTOM Rider) is hard wired into the batwing. The Camera's battery lasts forever so thats on its own.

Wow, you just gave me a great idea on how to do mine- thanks a bunch.
One question- what is the circular silver thing in the upper left hand corner of the dash (above the cupholder in last photo)?
