 Back to Top
 
The RAM-B-201-A RAM Mount Powder Coated Marine Grade Aluminum SHORT 1.75'' Double Socket Arm has a socket at either end to allow a 1'' diameter ball accessories to be connected.

A tightening screw on the side of the arm enables the sockets to clamp firmly to a RAM 1'' diameter ball. When loosening the side screw, the arm opens releasing the sockets allowing you to pivot the ball and socket connection or completely disconnect the ball from the socket.

The arm length is 1.75'' when measured from socket center to socket center. The total length of the arm is 2.38''. For a layout of the RAM-B-201-A arm dimensions, take a closer look with the RAM-B-201-A Design Drawings (pdf file).

SHORT ARM B- SOCKET

Item has been mounted, appears to be capable of doing what it was intended for. Perhaps the only fault might be the wing nut is too large! Appears too bulky. Not a big problem!!

PART OF AN EXTENSIVE SYSTEM

Interchangeable with the Ram mount system. It helps keep devices mounted on the front roll bar not too close to my hands on the steering wheel

GETS THE JOB DONE

Pros: low profile, sturdy, durable
Cons: none
A solid, durable part. It would be nice if it had the spring like the longer arms to keep it attached to one ball, however the shorter length prevents this. No big deal though, it works very well.

RAM SHORT ARM WORKED FOR MY PURPOSE

Pros: positioned the gps where i wanted it.
I used this short arm with the GPS City friction dash mount and the B-Ball Suction cup mount. The short arm kept the GPS unit low on the dash.

WORKS AS DESIGNED

Pros: well constructed
I have a couple of arms for different bikes - this one is perfect for mounting on the Concours off the left switch housing. It also works pretty well with the stem mount on my Moto Guzzi Norge.

RAM MOUNT SHORT ARM B-SOCKET RAM-B-201U-A

Originally ordered the medium length arm but found it to be too long, putting GPS in front of other guages on my FLTR Road Glide. Short arm works great, puts GPS in perfect location for sight and manipulation.

SHORT ARM MOUNT

Pros: aluminum, holing power
The short arm mount that came with my original mounting bracket was made from a plastic. It lasted approximatly two years before it broke. I believe that since the new part is made from aluminum it will be the last one I will ever have to buy. It fit perfectly and holds my gps unit in place better less slippage. I was also pleasantly surprised to find a new bolt and wing nut came with it.

ALUMINUM MOUNT FOR SKY CADDIE

Pros: durability
Great replacement part for your skycaddie mount. I broke two of skycaddie's plastic mounts before I found this one. I'm sure it will last longer than the skycaddie.

USE THIS FOR NO VIBRATION

Pros: totally solid!
Cons: none
My 7xx mounting system for my Garmin came with a standard 3" socket arm. I bought this shorter arm in additional to the stock system. I never installed the long arm I had read that it shakes. This short arm was solid as a rock. I used it on a 3 week trip thru Washington, Oregon and Northern California, mostly on back roads. We rode gravel, potholes and bumps. The GPS unit did not move!

Pros: the strong construction and clamping ability
Cons: none
I am very pleased with the operation of this item. I used it to mount a Garmin GPS to a large Harley-Davidson and was amazed at the ease of the installation. The RAM mount short length dual 1.0 inch socket arm has been a crucial factor in keeping the GPS unit secure and vibration free.

EXCELLENT PRODUCT

Pros: aluminum construction (as opposed to plastic)
Cons: none
The plastic one that came with my Skycaddie golf GPS only lasted a year. I bought this as a replacement, and at a super price. Being made of aluminum, it will outlive me!

BEST LENGTH.

Pros: reduced virations.
This 1" arm replace the 3" arm that stood too tall and caused vibrations for my GPS. The shorter length reduced the vibrations and made for a neater looking package.
