I've run with a suction cup mount on my 650 when I had a Street Scene windscreen and it worked very well but I always had a lanyard attached so if it came off, the GPS was not lost or worse yet, it wouldn't end up in a place that would lock my steering or effect the controls. Remember to Drive the Bike if the suction cup fails, don't get distracted and do something that will get you in bad trouble.
I seldom run the GPS on my Nighthawk now since it's really just a local driver Beuaty Queen. On my SPort/Tour bike I run a Garmin StreetPilot 2820 also with bluetooth, XM Radio, Weather, etc linked to my Blackberry. I'm a firm believer that you can't do better or safer than a RAM Mount. Check out GPSCity.com and you'll find a myriad of mounting options for motorcycles. They make a steering stem nut mount, handlebar mount of various configuration, lots of options and for not much more than about $30 plus/minus. I just bought another mount designated mount from them for my Follow Me SPOT GPS Emergency Locator that I run on my trips, too. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers!" group.
