Ram Mounts

[Dash65]

So yesterday I had a run up to St Marys Loch near Selkirk and tried my iPhone as the sat nav on the way back and I couldn't hear a thing the volume on the app turned to max so I tried Google maps again couldn't hear a thing so I'm gonna knock that idea on the head, if I turned the volume up on my scala rider G9x it would have blown the headphones when the music came back on so gonna look at a cheap sat nav.
gutted.

Thanks for all your replies.

Hi, how is the visibility with that fixed mount? I've got a RAM ball mount on my Bandit currently and I'm looking at getting a 1400GTR, mounting the GPS is a definite requirement! I find with the Zumo 660 I sometimes need to reposition the arm to reduce glare, obviously that wouldn't be possible with a fixed bracket.

The kawasaki fixed mount [ in the pictures] is OK.
The Zumo does suffer from glare in that position sometimes, but then I normally listen to my Zumo, stealing the odd look to confirm any voice directions I am not sure of.
The Zumo will be obstructed if you use a large tank bak.
However it is neat and un-obtrusive.
There are lots of articles on here about sat-nav mounts. A popular one is a stem mount, it keeps the Zumo in a similar position, but raises it above tank bag height, and is adjustable.

hi ant177.
the Garmin 590 doesn't suffer glare really.
