It would be nice to have the phone visible for when using the Maps / GPS app.

I don't mind trying a knock off, its the mounting to the bike that puzzles me. Ram seems to offer a u bolt clamp arrangement that goes around the bars to secure the thing to the bike. This mount has a mount that looks to bolt onto something, but what it bolts onto I am unsure of.

I have the ram Ball mount that replaces one of your handle bar clamp bolts. And that ball will work with the holder you linked to in your OP. https://www.amazon.com/Ram-Mount-Motorcycle-Handlebar-Screws/dp/B005J43I56
I used to have th U-Bolt style, but it got in the way of me getting the key in and out of the ignition. And if you have black or gold bars, the u-bolt clamps will eventually wear away the paint on the bar.

And to krisfz and LouG, I use my ram mount with my Garmin Montana, not my phone, so you can rest easy. I'll be here for the long haul! ;-)

I use my phone for the app warning about speed traps.
It will make a sound and point out exactly where the trap is in a 4 km. radius. Saved me a "few" bucks now and then.
The holder is a bit unhandy but keeps flies, dust and water off the phone.

By the way...the app is called "Fartkontrol.nu" :fat:

Is that a dent in your handlebars? If so thats not very safe
