I have a Garmin Zumo 345LM from my previous bike (Africa Twin) that I may use on the Blade at some stage. Has anyone used the same on their blade & what attachment have you used? Does a sports bike look ridiculous with a sat nav mount attached?
Don’t have one myself but know there are plenty on here who have a sat nav or phone for sat nav holder - sure they’ll tip in with their experiences
Hi Boothman, I use a Garmin on mine it was on the 13 as well. I bluetooth it into my helmet as it can be difficult to see the screen sometimes due to reflections.
Just bought myself Ultimate Addons Fork stem yoke mount (similar to telferizer, but cheaper), extender & ram mount for phone - will be testing this weekend. https://ultimateaddons.com/products...em-mounting-attachment?variant=18617275482179 *Edit: my '08 blade needs the largest size, 20.5mm - 24.5mm
Why couldn't I find that info anywhere before I bought it?! I mean, I just measured it myself in the end but would've saved me time!
How about one of these? Has anyone got one? https://www.sportsbikeshop.co.uk/motorcycle_parts/content_prod/157380
Hi Bazzashadow, I had one on mine (see pic above) but found that when it gets wet it seems to slip a bit. The rubber seems to loose its grip a bit when wet. The problem is made worse by the fact that I have an extension piece on the ball which puts more leverage on the rubber grip. I have swapped to a fixed ball from ultimate add ons this weekend but have not had a chance to ride with it yet.

Exactly the one I have, used it with an extender and a RAM Xgrip with my iPhone 8 at the weekend, seemed solid as anything. Coped with spirited speeds and some horrendous road surfaces without budging
