forgive me if this is in the wrong section, i was not sure if it should go in the workshop or not. Feel free to move mods. Anyway a friend gave me a phone holder/mount for the bike since he got a new phone. Similar to the one on this ebay link. It seems to hold the phone well but the ninja the doesn't have handle bar space to fit it Crying or Very sad only place i can see is the ninja is the large mount that the mirrors/top fairing attach to but the phone mount is way to big

Any suggestions?

Thanks

try your local pushshbike bike shop all puush bike accesories that are handlebar mounted come with rubber "packing strips" to adjust for different size handlebars and they usually end up in the bin

The H bar is a problem, I have a Garmin GPS mount on the RH handlebar bolted to the brake lever holding bracket. Wink If you need pics, I might get pics.

This one came with the navigator.

https://www.ram-mount.com/Products/MotorcycleMounts/tabid/128/Default.aspx

There was no room on the handlebars for this - https://www.ram-mount.com/CatalogResults/PartDetails/tabid/63/partid/082065077045066045050051049085/Default.aspx , I had to use this instead - https://www.ram-mount.com/CatalogResults/PartDetails/tabid/63/partid/082065077045066045051048057045049067072085/Default.aspx

You can also get a tank bag for maps with a transparent compartment. Oooh, you'd like pictures of that too? Embarassed Wink

Happy to help, I wanted to use a smartphone for GPS navigation, but then cave in and bought the Zumo with proper installation equipment. Wink SBK clip-on handlebars don't have a lot of room for customisation when it comes to mounts for mobile devices.

Thanks again
