GPS Ram Mount

I ordered a Ram Mount for my Garmin eTrex Legend HCx and I couldn't be happier. It's extremely stable and the unit does not move at all while riding. If anybody has a GPS and needs it to be mounted to their bike, go with a Ram Mount.

Here's a picture...........

Re: GPS Ram Mount

do you get any vibration at highway speeds? I usually keep my GPS in my tank bag, but it's a pain to look down at it.

Not with this model. It has an area on the top portion of the screen that displays turn by turn directions. It's very clear and easy to read while riding.

I don't have any vibration with this mount. I have read the display at 85 mph and it was very clear.

Re: GPS Ram Mount

Do you power the GPS off the bike? I run the RAM with my 60CSX on my dirt bikes and it holds up fine. Great product and inexpensive. I'll have to mount it on my FZ6.
