socalhodaka 105 Posted January 1, 2010 How do you mount a roll chart holder and or a GPS to your bars? Where is the room or space? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 561 Posted January 1, 2010 I never paid attention to how things get mounted, though I've seen a few bikes with GPS and misc. gadgets on the bars. Somebody put up some pictures. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted January 1, 2010 I know I am in the minority here, in that I still run a 7/8" bar with a cross bar; my roll chart holder and gps both mount on that Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted January 2, 2010 my GPS and roll chart holder mount to the cross bar... I still have those on my DS bikes, partially for this reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KTMrad 516 Posted January 2, 2010 Rollchart holders mount using a hose clamp on your bars or crossbar......it's easy ! I use a Ram mount for my GPS......using the clamp and ball mount. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spyder 2 Posted January 2, 2010 Guess there are two threads for some reason........ This was posted in the other thread earlier this morning.

Jaynen 0 Posted January 2, 2010 I have the RAM mount on a 7/8ths bar with a crossbar but my GPS wont mount to that small of a tube I think. The ticket is to get the triple clamp mounting hand guards like Crawdaddy has that opens up the space a bit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dsfox 0 Posted January 2, 2010 Lots more room on those bars than on mine... At least for now, I have a Garmin handlebar mount (small and even then BARELY fit)....I attach the teather strap to the crossbar and also add a zip tie or two....I like the low profile keeping the unit close to the bars for protection...[for those rare occasions that it might get closer to the ground than intended.. .] I'll have to look at the RAM mounts on some bikes and perhaps upgrade..

socalhodaka 105 Posted January 2, 2010 I get the mount for the GPS, let me mention I have the big bars with no cross. So seeing the GPS mounts get the unit up and off the bar. Now the roll chart holder is flat and low, I used to mount one to my cross bar on off road enduro. I didn't have light switchs, mirror, and stuff plus I had the space on the cross bar. So I don't see any photos or suggestion on mounting the roll chart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spyder 2 Posted January 2, 2010 Here is what is on the SXC. I dont really care for it. It does work however. Does anyone know if RAM Mounts make an accessory to mount roll charts a few inches away from the handle bars? A flat accessory holder... Spyder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
