Im using the Samsung Galaxy S4 Active on my baby..

I have 2 mounts the same.. The one on the clutch res is only fitted when using the tank bag so I can see the TomTom.

Thanks, looks good and a good price, do you bother about waterproofing? Going to try my S5 as GPS etc before I bow to Garmin again  :whistling:

The S4 Active is waterproof so no need to put in a case.  :banana: I'm sure the S5 is also waterproof.

I downloaded TomTom app to my phone and have never looked back.. Does everything I need..
