WORKS AS DESIGNED

I have a couple of arms for different bikes - this one is perfect for mounting on the Concours off the left switch housing. It also works pretty well with the stem mount on my Moto Guzzi Norge.

Pros: well constructed
Recommend: YES

RAM MOUNT SHORT ARM B-SOCKET RAM-B-201U-A

Originally ordered the medium length arm but found it to be too long, putting GPS in front of other guages on my FLTR Road Glide. Short arm works great, puts GPS in perfect location for sight and manipulation.

RAM MOUNT FOR STREETPILOT 7200

RAM mount components fit perfectly. The adaptor for the Garmin StreetPilot 7200 worked fine. A good solution.

SHORT ARM MOUNT

The short arm mount that came with my original mounting bracket was made from a plastic. It lasted approximatly two years before it broke. I believe that since the new part is made from aluminum it will be the last one I will ever have to buy. It fit perfectly and holds my gps unit in place better less slippage. I was also pleasantly surprised to find a new bolt and wing nut came with it.

Pros: aluminum, holing power
Recommend: YES

ALUMINUM MOUNT FOR SKY CADDIE

Great replacement part for your skycaddie mount. I broke two of skycaddie's plastic mounts before I found this one. I'm sure it will last longer than the skycaddie.

Pros: durability

USE THIS FOR NO VIBRATION

My 7xx mounting system for my Garmin came with a standard 3" socket arm. I bought this shorter arm in additional to the stock system. I never installed the long arm I had read that it shakes.

This short arm was solid as a rock. I used it on a 3 week trip thru Washington, Oregon and Northern California, mostly on back roads. We rode gravel, potholes and bumps.

The GPS unit did not move!

Pros: totally solid!
Cons: none
Recommend: YES

JEFF S.

I am very pleased with the operation of this item. I used it to mount a Garmin GPS to a large Harley-Davidson and was amazed at the ease of the installation. The RAM mount short length dual 1.0 inch socket arm has been a crucial factor in keeping the GPS unit secure and vibration free.

Pros: the strong construction and clamping ability
Cons: none
Recommend: YES

Good strong arm. I broke two of the plastic arms that come with the mounts. I will be replacing all of my arms with these to get rid of the plastic ones.

JUST ONE MINOR PROBLEM

This RAM Mount works very well, however I had to buy a bolt the correct size as the one supplied was a half inch too long.

Pros: very easy to install.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT

The plastic one that came with my Skycaddie golf GPS only lasted a year. I bought this as a replacement, and at a super price. Being made of aluminum, it will outlive me!

Pros: aluminum construction (as opposed to plastic)
Cons: none

BEST LENGTH.

This 1" arm replace the 3" arm that stood too tall and caused vibrations for my GPS. The shorter length reduced the vibrations and made for a neater looking package.

Pros: reduced virations.
