[socalhodaka 104]

Is there a store here in San Diego, North County that sells the Ram Mounts or do I need to shop online?

Looking for Etrex Vista CX mount.

Thanks Kelly

Kelly, I usually order from one of these guys. I don't know anyone local that carries the things I want in stock. Ken

I agree with Ken, locally to find the cradle, motorcycle U-bolt and arm is a long-shot. REI in Carlsbad possibly, but please call first.

I use GPSCity. Competitive product pricing, shipping and they fill the orders the same day.

Looking for Etrex Vista CX mount.

AKCooper made a cut-out in his square bar pad with a metal backing plate to mount his Etrex dead center between the triple clamps........low and stable........I like it.......I may do the same since my RAM elbow sometimes loosens while riding (either on it's own or from me bumping inot it)......readjusting on the fly is a PITA.......

Aaron - Do you have a picture you can post of your Etrex set-up?

Cut-out a quarter-sized piece of sand paper and place between the ball and the receiver end, will not move ever again

or from me bumping inot it)

Can't help you with that

Here is the best picture I have here at work. When I get home tonight, I'll snap a couple more pictures of my setup

You can snap a couple as we set mine up.....

Thanks for the tip.....I'll do that on the EXC and CRF to hold it steady when I'm on those bikes (yes, I even have my little CRF230F hardwired.....leave me alone! )

I think I may try the Aaron's barpad method on the WR

They also make a radar detector mount, which I severely need for my street bike. I'll be ordering up one.

x2 on the gpscity.com deal. I bought mine there and got just a few days later.

Still planning on experimenting with Aaron's Bar Pad technique on the WR250R.........but ordered one of these from GPS City last night to put on my EXC (looks much better than the std handlebar mount setup.....frees up space on the bar and centers the GPS......I hadn't seen this ball mount before)

I like that.

Another supplier for the list is Cycle Gadgets..

I have had great service from them and their prices seem competitive.

The bar pad rig worked out great in Primm.......

Crawdaddy,

Do you have any issues hitting it with your chest protector? I have had to move mine to the side because I rubbed the buttons off of two different 60csx's while mounted in the middle. Luckily Garmin repaired them for me at no cost.

No, that's one of the reasons I adopted Aaron's rig........low and centered......it would be sitting up higher if I had it on a RAM arm/ball mount

Well I can't wait to see it..

[socalhodaka 104]

Thanks for the advice. I ordered from gpscity, ordered the parts and had them the next day. Here is what I went with.

Kelly....thx for posting this. I have a mount but was unaware of the clamp bolt mount. Ordered two (WR & DR) which will free up some much needed space.

Thanks Guys for the heads up on the Top Clamp RAM Mount.

Doubled Down and mounted two:

Tricky to find washers needed to eliminate mushrooming of RAM Mount base when torqued to 20Nm.

Nice.. I like the SPOT mount.

Nice Shock...Thx. More options....hmmmm.

Dave, without searching, I imaging that SPOT mount is from their site...or RAM's? I like the mileage reminders.
