Since the K is rather challenging to mount a GPS unit to, I came up with this solution.[/img]

Great solution! I just might add a Ram mount to my tank bag.

Here is where I got it:

http://motorcycle.motorcycle-superstore.com/search?ts=m&w=Gps

Its a Cortech item designed for their Dryver bag.

I removed the straps, drilled 4 mounting holes in the U-shaped bracket, drilled 4-holes in the front of the bag and mounted using stainless pan head screws, large washers and nylock nuts. I also added two black wire looms to the right screws for the power cable which runs under the right bag mount strap.

Neat, sweet, petite Laughing
