RAM GPS Mount on a '00 ZX9R

I had to finally modernize and get a GPS instead of dragging maps everywhere I rode. The GPS will be invaluable on long road trips and now I have no excuse for getting split up and lost ;) I bought a Garmin GPSMAP 60C through Amazon.com (saved $100 off REI's price) which happened to be a marine GPS, perfect for the Northwet weather. The next challenge was mounting it on my bike, the 9 has absolutely no free space for a good mounting position. I had a great RAM mount on the '01 VFR that bolted right to the upper tank bolts...no such luck on the 9. I checked out GPScity.com for their huge RAM selection and found a perfect mount example on a Triumph speed triple...the forks !!!! Now why didn't I think of that... This mount can obviously work on ANY bike, especially sport bikes with their tight mount space. I purchased the Diamond Plate with 1'' Ball, 3'' Long Arm with Double 1'' Sockets, Strap Rail Base with 1'' Ball (RAM-B-108U-GP1), and the RAM Mount Plastic GPSMAP 60 and 60C Series Unit Cradle (RAM-HOL-GA12U). The install was cake..

Here you can see the mount to the left fork tube and where I routed the RAM mount under the clutch cable to sit right above the triple clamp. The left side was the least cluttered with cables and made for an easy install. I did remove the windshield for better access to the fork tube.

Here is the final product from the cockpit. The location does block the lower end of my speedo, but I can look around the GPS if I need to see it. The beauty of RAM mounts are all the choices and additional lengths available if I choose to modify the mount later. I can't wait until my first ride with the GPS now ;)
