Is there any truth in it? GPS obscuring clocks?

[mwhite5471]

Had a couple of hours free today so I decided to slot the upper holes in the GPS mount.

Turned out the mount is made from aluminum so I just needed some needle files and some patience.

Stock view for me at 5' 11".

The tools.

The stock holes.

The slots.

Tada...new and improved view

Just thought I'd share....Merry Xmas.

Cracking job, does the screen clear the nav in its lowest position?

thats brill fella

That's brill fella - the only prob might be that some of us can get a little `touchy` over drilling or taking a file to our bikes (I don`t - I`m just saying some of us might).

But with that said its a fantastic, cheap, easy, quick ABSOLUTE BRILL way of sorting out the problem.

Well done fella I`m sure its going to help a lot of us out who need a quick cheap solution

Sure does with about 1/4" to spare.

Mark, if you still need help with making this bracket please let me know, I'm back home now. My bike is getting changed for a 2014 soon so I can test on both if you like.

I tried to pm you but it wouldn't let me

Hi mate thanks but one of the lads has already sent me a bracket - much obliged though! Personally I think the drilling option is the best result

Not if you're as bad with power tools as I am!

Ah Nuts, so there is a need for a bracket (if possible) then???

I've never had an issue with mine, but it may be good to offer something for the other mechanical numpties out there!

I think there is definitely a need for this bracket. Personally speaking I'd rather buy a bracket than drill and file my bike....depending on the price that is.

It has nothing to do with mechanical aptitude either

I can see the merits of both to be honest - what I will do to be totally as helpful as I can to other goodly tossers is a) offer a drilling service and b) offer a bracket - that way I can help people the most I think

 

[Hammy]

Any idea what the bracket will sell for

Dunno mate - tbh the drilling option is going to take some beating as it's free!

I've got to see if I can design a bracket first and I don't think it's gonna be that easy looking at how it currently fits.....
