GPS Mount fabricated for ST1300

(1/3) > >>

I relocated my universal waterproof GPS mount today.
 
I originally mounted it with sturdy 3M double sided tape to my HeliBar cover.
It has never detached from that position over the past 3 years and I had a safety cord just in case, tethered to the cable stay

The problem with the centre location was it was a bit awkward getting the key in and out as well as a bit far for me to see fine detail on the screen using my TomTom XL, so...

I fabricated a piece of aluminium mounted under the 2 bolts that secure the front brake assembly and an additional bolt thru the outer bolt of the master cylinder cover.

Ideally it would be better to mount the GPS on the clutch side so as to be able to use it while on the go, but I didn't want to relocate my heated grip controller and iphone remote....

I realize other well made RAM mount holders are available as well as shelves for the ST1300 but they are clunky looking in my opinion
(btw, www.Jhonyappleseed.com.au has a great range of RAM mounts)
 
I will test ride on the weekend

Cunning attachment to beat vibration on a long arm like that.     :wink1
