Check out this Ebay listing. # 200470018598 . Sorry I don't know how to post pics here. I use it with a Garmin 205w. It looks great. The Garmin just plugs on to it. There is a small strap that slips over the ball, just in case it ever comes off (but it won't). I think this looks so much better than those contraptions with all the connections.

They also have the mounts for Zumo and most others.

Two of my friends saw it and bought one for themselves.

Hope this helps.

I have the Ram Mount from www.mountguys.com but it is black. Not sure if they have chrome. Very solid and secure mount.

There are many threads on hardwiring the gps instead of using the lighter plug. very easy to do and looks factory clean. I did it in about 30 minutes. I did have trouble with the barewire kit from mountguys.com on the garmin. Sent it back and bought another model elsewhere.

Which mount did you buy for your ultra KW-HD Rider. I have a 2010 Limited and would like to purchase the water proof version.

Another vote for this mount. Here's the link;

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

Very clean looking install and very secure. I researched quite a few different mounts and chose this one for it's simplicity and looks.

Hope this helps as well.
