Looks great Bob!

Just curious, how do you have your iphone mounted? I see the cradle (got the same one from RAM) and the arm, but I can't tell how you have it on the handlebars? I don't like the u-bolt they sent along with mine - and I can't seem to get a good spot for it without worrying about it hitting the tank.. got a close up pic?

I bought the mount for the mirror hole. I didnt want it clamped to the bars.

Here is a picture of it with a 2 inch arm I had at first. I was getting a glare off the screen so I went with a 6 inch arm to move it.

Beautiful! Those expenses are just the start. It is addicting, add a bunch of extras, then realized you need another bike to "trick".
