First of all, welcome to the forum from south Arkansas!
If you know how to use the search function, try using search words like "Garmin" or "Zumo" for starters. You'll get plenty of pictures. In the meantime, here's one option for you, mounted on the left side handlebar where so many of us Ultra riders seem to like it:

Can you be more specific with part #'s of your set up? If you do, I will forgive you for posting dirty pics.

Keep in Mind - I have the Chubbie "Wild1" bars.... 1 1/4

I am also setting up a weather proof quick disconnect power plug.... I will be able to remove this in just a second - then secure it in the tour pac.... all depends on where I am... for the most part - with the Techmount set up that I am using... it is fairly secure IF the bad guy does NOT have tools - If I will be way out of sight and its dark... Off it comes...
I really like the Techmount - very clearn and built super nice...

If you are Really interested in the Zumo - I suggest you go over to the Zumo forum - sign up and check it out... a lot of very good info there... I think the GPS's have their place BUT they are NOT the do all and they are a VERY good way to get you into an accident. They are just too EASY to look at and as you know, on a Bike - it only takes a split second of NOT paying attention to really mess up your day... So, beware and watch out... I am new at the GPS thing and I just completed that 7000 mile Car trip from CA to Southern FL -used the Zumo all the way... great tool but I found that it does have the ability to make the driver brain lazy when it comes to routes, lol... and the GPS does screw things up at times.... I am glad I had this 5 weeks with it in the car.... It has changed my mind-set on bike use... I had two close calls in the car - had I been that stupid on the bike - Ouch.. live and learn.... The Zumo comes with a program to pre-program your rides/routes... "I" found it to be way more work than I wanted to put in - you will see and learn over on Zumo.com == its called "Mapsource"
