Help needed to mont a Nav V to F800ST

[S A Watt]

Hello Folks looking for a bit of help if I can

I managed to pick up a second hand Nav5 with a 4 button cradle which was spot on.

It came with a BMW mount for a K1300 S. this basically mounts on the tank. Not what I need.

I have a F800GT and I want to mount it on the handlebars in the middle. As we know the BMW mount would be great but is a stupid cost.

Can someone suggest a mount the cradle can go on.

The bars are 28mm thick

Is the cradle the standard AMPS shape?

I’m sure someone has done it.

Don’t want to spend a fortune on it. I will just remove the nav from bike when I come off.

If anyone has done this before and can help that would be great. If anyone has a mount that would work get in touch

I have attached a few photos to show what I have and where I want it to go.

Cheers folks

I've uploaded the PDF here: https://www.defender2.net/gallery/albums/userpics/11669/sat+nav+install+manual.pdf

Basically the same as my F650GS (800 twin) - a mate bought the mount and cradle off me for his F800GT after I sold my 650

Alternatively you can use a RAM Mount in place of one of the handlebar mounting bolts
One of these on the rear of your NAV mounting plate: https://www.ram-mount.co.uk/product...b9EIqtXwABJwW39RRYFKX4TSaYgV6V3xoCaHkQAvD_BwE
And a short RAM arm
then one of these on your bar clamp

Thank you bud for the info. That’s very kind of you.
Not sure I love rams but it might be the best solution for me.
