GREAT MOUNT FOR KLR650 AND POLARIS 600 HANDLEBARS

Pros: easy to install, built solid, interchangable
Cons: none so far

I bought a RAM-B-149Z-GA41U,cycle mount for my Garmin GPSMAP 62sc and this additional mount base for my ATV. In ten seconds, I can remove the mount with the GPS in it and switch it between my KLR650 and Polaris 600 Sportsman. Great system. Very stable and extremely endless mounting positions and angles.

PRODUCT DIDNT WORK

Pros: none
Cons: you gotta find you own parts.

I ordered this mounting bracket for my Suzuki DR. RAM customer service told me that two U bolts were incluced in the package to accomidate different size bars. I only recieved one U bolt in my order from GPSCity. I called customer service at GPSCity and they told me only one U bolt was to be in the package even after I had told them what RAM had told me. They wanted me to purchase more hardware and another clamp system. Very disappointing. I had to go elsewhere to find the smaller U bolt.

Recommend? NO

GREAT PIECE OF KIT

Pros: solid mount with minimal vibrations
Cons: rusting

I had purchased the Ram Mount and got tired of moving the complete unit evertime I changed vehicles so I bought one of these for each vehicle. Works great!. The U-Bolt can rust so I used shrink wrap to cover the bolt and it also reduces marring on the handle bar finish.

NEED A SMALLER U BOLT

Pros: strong, low-profile, relatively quick to install
Cons: u-bolt too long

A u-bolt that is about 1/2" shorter on each leg needs to be included in this mount. The tubes on the glareshield of my airplane where I use the mount are 3/4" diameter, not 1" diameter and the threaded legs of the u-bolt stick out so much that they interfere with the ball and arm junction. The excess threaded stock has to be cut off to make it work.

Recommend? YES
