AN hour later my Zumo660 was off the handlebar an on the dash between windshield bags. I also drilled the rivets out of the center bag to remove it.
ditto, just make up a bracket like the store bought ones, and paint it

I don't have a GPS unit, but I do have an iPhone and an aftermarket bluetooth head unit. I stream my music, and when it's time the music softens and Google maps says turn right in 100 feet, then the music resumes. I don't have to take my eyes off the road to look at the screen, and I don't have to add a mount of any kind.

you said that you ran the wire between the outer and inner fairing without drilling a hole for the wire? Can you please post a picture of how you did this?

I'm usually tasked with being the lead bike and route planner. I wanted a setup that would make this easy and allow for advanced planning. I decided to use the iPad mini with Retina display (great in sunlight). I still have full deflection on my bars. It mounts to the gas cap cover with accessory mount using a Ram mount. Easy on, easy off. Not wanting to burn through data I bought ($20-$30 depending on map version) Copilot Premium from the App Store. Copilot just uses the iPads gps no data time while riding. The iPad also acts as my music player too.
