Default Temporary GPS Mount needed

I have a Garmin Zumo mounted on my RG. We are taking a ride in Canada this summer, but will be renting harley's in British Columbia. I would love to plan the route on my Zumo and use it during the trip. i have a bluetooth helmet so I can hear the directions, but would like to know if anyone has an idea on how I could attach it to an Ultra Classic (rented bike)? Any temp clamps, etc out there that anyone knows of???

If the Garmin uses a 4 hole AMPS mounting pattern, which I believe they do. Kuryakyn makes a relatively inexpensive handlebar clamp mount PN 1421. I happen to have a barely used one for sale, $40 shipped, PM me if interested.

I've just used the stock zumo mount that it comes with. The u-bolt RAM ball thing. I wrap a piece of tape around the bar and put it on. For power you can run a small lead down to the cig light on the ultra. If it's wet where you are headed, and like to over engineer stuff, west marine has some really nice fused waterproof cig lighters.
