Moving satnav mount
« on: August 07, 2020, 03:40:34 pm »
Hello guys, Iv'e never been keen on the Batman style screen on my R so decided to change it for a carbon one. Once it was fitted it was clear that the TomTom that was mounted on a Ram mount ball in the steering head was spoiling the line of the bike. I solved the problem by making a new mounting plate and drilling and tapping for  a couple of 5mm c/sunk  socket screws which fastened the baseplate of the TomTom bike mounting to it.
The satnav now sits further back and lower and is much less noticeable and it dosen't spoil the lines of the bike.


Regards  Mick
