    To use mount or not...

    I got this mount with my Garmin and wondered if it would hold my GPS to the F6B dashboard. I applied it and it stuck. I pulled and pulled and I couldn't loosen it up so I thought it was great. Next, I took a ride and when I got about 5 miles down the road, it popped off. So much for that idea.Attachment 5819Attachment 5820Attachment 5819Attachment 5820

    Problem is they tend to loosen up w/the vibration and the bit of wind. I am looking for one of those plastic round things w/the sticky on one side,that comes w/the GPS, mount it and then stick the suction cup on it, I think that would be more secure.

    You know, I think you just might be correct...worth a try anyway.

    Best bet if you want to use the factory Garmin "clip" is probably to grab one of these http://www.gpscity.com/ram-mount-gar...hol-ga22u.html and then attach it to the RAM mounting source of your choice.

    I put Ram mounts I got off Amazon on both handlebar ends. Double mount on the left for GPS and an extra beverage holder and single on the right for my iphone.
