WHAT CAN I SAY? PRETTY GOOD

Pros: very robust, no need to adjust once set.

Like everyone else says here, it's pretty much the best you can get. Have it on my V Strom and have been to some pretty gnarly places, and it's been great.

GARMIN NUVI 500 MOUNT

Pros: does not shake or rattle
Cons: have not found anything that isn't just perfect.

The mount took moments to connect. It holds the GPS unit firmly with no rattle or shaking. Just what you want and need for mounting a unit to a 4 wheeler. Great setup and would purchase again for all of my ATVs

GREAT UNIT

Pros: flat black colour and ease of installation
Cons: needs a thin gasket to minimize scratching on bars

Great unit, easy install and very flexible in any location on the handlebars depending on motorcycle make and model. Installed on 2003 Kawasaki Voyager, makes long distance traveling a breeze with easy positioning for day or night visibilty of the GPS unit.

HOLDS THE UNIT SECURELY

Pros: solidly made
Cons: none

I bought this mount with the 3 inch arm, two wire kits and a second clutch reservoir mounted ball. By mounting the arm upside down, I can now take the Nuvi complete with the holder and the arm from my KLR to my Pacific Coast in seconds. Just plug in to the bike and go! Everything is well made and fits exactly as described. Absolutely no issues were encountered on road or off.

GREAT QUALITY

Pros: solid construction, easy mounting, holds steady
Cons: haven't found it yet

At first I thought I might be paying a bit too much but this piece is worth every penny. Mounted quickly, holds GPS solidly and steadily, and it has not vibrated loose one bit. Ordering from gpscity.com was fast, efficient, and very professional.

AWESOME MOUNT

Pros: easy to install, articulate design. very stable
Cons: absence of a fastener for the wiring harness plug.

I purchased this mount and put it on myself. Extremely easy to do, very articulate arm allowing for infinite placing of the GPS. I did not attach the wiring harness myself and would like to have seen some type of fastener placed on the handlebar mount. The arm and receiver bracket remove easily for storage n the saddlebags. I strongly recommend this product.

EXCELLENT GPS MOUNT

Pros: adjustability, can use with other cradles

Bought this motorcycle mount for a Garmin Nuvi 550. Had searched all over for a local outlet with no success. Bought this one from GPS City. Had it within five days, fit perfect, mounted in less than five minutes with the exact cradle for my GPS. It is simple, durable and very adjustable.

MOTORCYCLE MOUNT RAM-B-149-GA32U

Pros: very well made
Cons: no choice of mounting hardware

Very well made and very solid. The U-bolt fits on both European and American handlebars. This unit should be offered with the RAM Mount Short Arm B- Socket RAM-B-201U-A instead of the longer arm. For sport bikes the unit should come with the shorter arm and the RAM Mount Mini Motorcycle Mount Base 9mm Hole RAM-B- 272U instead of the U-Bolt. In this way all applications are covered and the buyer wouldn't have an additional expense. Combined with the NUVI 500 makes for an affordable motorcycle GPS.

EXCEEDED MY EXPECTATIONS

Pros: ease of use
Cons: didn't buy it sooner!

Ditto all the other positive comments. If you are on the fence about this product, jump off and get onboard. After researching and unfortunately purchasing several other "mounts" online, I finally found a product that exceeded my requirements for adjustability, product quality and even customer service. Well worth the investment! Note: Mounted on full suspension Mongoose Otero Super, with variable width 1-1.25" handle bar..invested in the stainless steel loop (sold seperately) and it mounted PERFECTLY!

MOTORCYCLE GPS MOUNT

This is an excellent application for a motorcycle GPS. It installed easily and quickly on my collector Honda CB900 Custom. I plan on switching the mount back and forth between my motorcycle and a bicycle (I will be biking in Europe next spring). If I had thought of it when ordering I would have ordered one extra handle bar mount to make it even easier to switch back and forth. I would highly recommend this product.

EXCELLENT GPS MOUNT

Pros: solid mount with good grip
Cons: no chrome option

Fits on the handlebars of my Vulcan and my Roadstar perfectly. The Holder grips my Nuvi 550 cinfidently, and there is no fear of it falling out. I can also easily adjust the angle in most any direction. I permanently mounted the ball-head on my bike, and it is easy to remove the arm when needed, or to remove the GPS from the mount when travelling.

AWESOME GPS MOUNT FOR MY SNOWMOBILE

I used this mount for my NUVI 500 GPS to my 2006 Skidoo REV snowmobile. Well designed and made well. I will be very very surprised if this mount will let go of my NUVI as it fits very snug and secure. Also I bought this mount since it has stainless Steel hardware that will not corrode like the coated steel model may.

RAM MOUNT GOOD

Pros: works great
Cons: no directions came with the unit

Went on my 1200 Custom Sportster like it was meant to be there. Like all the adjustments you can make at top & bottom of the mount and then can take it off and put it on a different bike. Doesn't interfere with my view of the road in front of me, and is right where I want it to be when I'm looking down for a GPS-fix :) Only downside was having to go to the gpscity website to download the directions. No info telling you this on packaging (like on the R.A.M. mount info card that came with the thing -- ).

This mount was very easy to install, also has countless adjustments for your viewing angle. It holds the Nuvi with just an easy snap in place and snap out for taking it off. It is also not obtrusive looking when the unit is off the bike

NUVI 550 MOUNT

The mount is very easy and straight forward to mount on my HD Ultra Classic and it holds my Nuvi 550 very securely. The only issue is that there isn't enough clearance to fit the GPS into the mount with the A/C adapter plugged in. You need to mount the unit THEN connect the adapter. Remember to disconnect the adapter before removing the GPS or you'll bend the adapter connection....

NON TUBE TYPE HANDLEBAR

Great mount, but needed to make an adapter to mount it to the handlebar of my concours. Any bike that doesn't have a traditional Tube manufactured handlebar would have to adapt the mount in some way
