    Me too!

    Yes, so am I.
    It would be good to see some other photos of the set up and mounting. Would just need to run the power cable without getting in the way of the intruments etc.
    Thanks.

    Ken - here are some additional photos. I run the power cable from the left hand cubby behind the instrument panel and out the top, there is a gap there that makes this easy. Of course you have to drill a small hole in the cubby to route the cable, or wire it in somewhere else. At any rate, wiring doesn't block the instruments. No sure on how to do an international shipment assuming you want one, but we can probably figure it out.

    I have mine mounted on the left handlebar. This way I can push buttons while riding. In my opinion it may be difficult to enter info while mounted on the windshield.

    Greg - 2 sizes. One fits suction cups up to 65mm in diameter (standard Garmin mounts) and the other fits up to 74mm (some of the larger Garmin mounts and some Tom Tom mounts). Will NOT work with suction cups over 74mm. Not recommended for 6" screen units due to weight, 5" screens work fine. The photo I posted is a standard Garmin mount with a Garmin #1450 GPS (5" screen).

    Looks like we will have good riding weather in N. Illinois over the next week. If you want to see the mount, I could probably meet you halfway in Geneva or Schaumburg. PM me if you want to do that.
