Good mount for Garmin GPS

Nice one, thanks! I did wonder if there was something like that, not sure how I missed it!

Should make for a nice and tidy job



See above With a little effort it will fit replacing the front bolt for the gauge mounts

Here is how mine worked out. GPS sits right above the gauges. I'm sure I could figure out how to fit it with the flyscreen in the factory position, but I pushed mine out 2" to make key access easier

 
Thanks again R3Tex, I'm guessing that as I have a different flyscreen (not triumph's one but one from Chris of custom sculpts) I may get away without any further mods to it, it already sits quite a way out fitting flush at the bottom with the outer edges of the lights.

I'll have a good look again when I have daylight again and get a feel for it, also found another adapter that might help too but I am not so sold on it as it may leave limited movement with the bracket: http://www.ram-mount.co.uk/mirror-mount-9mm-hole-with-1-ball-p-1016-c-238_286.html
 


I found Express Mounts to be the best place to buy.
A simple 1" u-bolt clamp for the bar, the short B-socket Arm which connects to the base mount for the GPS.
Easy Peasy!

So what parts did you actually use to mount it? Want to get my cell phone in this same spot.
 

I used the Ram mounting hardware that came with the GPS and purchased a couple of extra pieces to get it where I wanted.
Looking through the Ram mounts available I don't think there isn't much you cannot achieve with them.
Ignition has been relocated previously so no probs there.

Here is what I used:
RAM-B-347U mount for a Garmin 660, RAM-B-201U-C Arm, RAM-B-367U Ball

I trimmed the ball stud a little bit to give me a little more room between the gauges, but other than that everything was bolt on

I remove the forward screw (closest to the flyscreen) from the bracket that holds the gauges in place and replaced it with a slightly longer one. The screw goes through the center of the ball. This puts your mounting point for the whole assembly on the bars between the two gauges.
 
Sweet - didn't think about using the bolt between the gauges. Was trying to figure out how you did it with the handlebar bracket. Thanks for the help!
