Default Another GPS mount question???

Does anyone have any experience with this handle bar mount I found on eBay?
http://cgi.ebay.com/gps-nuvi-garmin-...#ht_522wt_1167
Also can anyone tell me if the handle bar size is 1" on my 09 Electra Glide Classic?

Thanks,

I bought a Ram mount for my Garmin Nuvi from the www.themountdepot.com for 29.00 and it is great that one on ebay will make the garmin fall down and drive you crazy. I love the Ram mount works great

Thanks, I was wondering how stable it might be.

+1 on the RAM mounts. As for your handlebar size -- take an adjustable crescent wrench and adjust it so that it just fits around handlebar; remove wrench; measure between jaws. The measurement will vary slightly depending on where the bends are in the handlebars.

Don't have experience with the mount you refer to but I can say I am very happy with the eCaddy mount I put on my Ultra. Can mount it left or right on the bars, nice and solid, visible, and clean lines.

I just bought a Kury fuel door GPS mount from a forum member, works great, steady as a rock. I had been using the handlebar mount or a ram ball through the fairing, got a lot of vibration with these....not with the Kury fuel door....I like it a lot.
