Ordered mine today. I'll be in Dekalb tomorrow, so I'm just picking it up to install tomorrow evening.

They're made of billet aluminum (not cast), and come either chromed or black e-coated.

 

I got mine yesterday and will install over the weekend. Great looking product!!

Great mount! A little pricy, but awesome quality.
Ride safe!

 

I have the nano. I use the belt clip cover that came with it and velcroed it to the dash.
I velcroed a volume control to the handlebar, and use helmet speakers (my bike does not have a radio), this way I control the volume with my thumb and don't have to take my hand off of the grip.
When I park for lunch or whatever, I pull the I-pod off the dash and it's in my pocket!
I have used this for set up for about 8,000 miles and have NO issues!

 

What about the vibration of the Touring bikes. Won't that mess up your device if you have it on the handle bars??

 

Most of the newer generation Ipods (and Iphone) use flash technology, thus no moving parts.

 

Got one for Xmas....I peaked. Can't wait to put it on.

 

The only effect the vibrations have is that it can cause the orientation of the screen to change since Iphone senses motion. It only happens when I release the grip.

I have a similar holder but mine was $36 and came from Michaels Stainless Steel Innovations and is one of the best things I've done to the bike.

 

I have an 07 FLHTCU and just changed from the iPod Claw (3 years old) to one that will hold my iPhone 4. The vibration, at a stop, has no affect on the iPhone. And running down the road it is perfect. By using the Riders Claw for my iPhone I just eliminated the need for the GPS holder I have mounted on the other handle bar. Now I get my tunes, GPS, and weather radar all on my iPhone, using one mount.

 

Riders Claw $100, no. RAM $30, yes.
