Default Need GPS mount for 1 1/4" bars

Just picked up an inexpensive NEXTAR Q4 4.3" Touchscreen GPS System for a screamin' deal on a doorbuster, but I'm having difficulty finding a mount that will work on the 1 1/4" Chubby Bars. Anybody out there got any good ideas for mounting? Link to the actual product would be nice.

I don't know if your GPS receiver uses a ball mount system. If it does, this seems to be a very good mount:

Otherwise, there is always the RAM Mounts that will probably fit.

Hope this helps.

Try the Kuryakyn fuel door mount. I have one and I love it. My GPS doesn't obstruct my view or get in the way when I'm fueling.

Bigsky, I've got the gps mount from ram on my fat bars and it works great. They send you two different sizes of u bolts. You'll need the larger one.

May be good in theory but that second or two looking down could spell disaster one of these days. But that's only my opinion.......
