looks good

Nice neat installation Nick

Wouldn't it be better on the left though so that throttle hand is free to do its stuff whilst using the unit?
My Quest is on the left and very handy to use in that location

Sherpa ;)
 
Nick, Your gps thingy does not go with these mirrors. Im sorry, but someone had to say it.
To save your embarassment, and to avoid having people pointing and giggling, you should sell them to me. I am immune to such things.
The things I do for you guys ........ and they have left me off the new years honours list AGAIN !

put it on the right as i will be fitting a switch on the left soon for my xtra lights. But.. can easily swop if it doesnt workout..

Regarding mirrors.. with my track record, they will be up for sale in a month or two.. go buy a new set.. only around £80 a set.. BMW K1200RS. nick

Well that’s handy (not) :( if enough people complain to Tomtom, they might make a change to the firmware allowing that feature to be turned off.

Thanks for useful info, I too was getting annoyed with 4 button operation and planning to do the same: you just saved me the work.

Now to go and test it on the bike.

tried it today, seems to do the trick, will have a look when i get my spare mount to see it it can be taken apart and modified, they only cost around £20 and a spare power lead £7 if you fancy fitting one to another bike.. nick
 
nick, mounting looks good. I have just bought tt rider, might try mounting it on left bar. could you tell me if you have wired up to bike supply, where have you connected to ? thanks alwyn.

Have mounted mine right in the middle of the bars, in front of ignition. Its angled slightly more upright than Nick has his, but it is also out of the airstream. Blocks view of left indicator light. Initially had mine connected directly to battery, now through a relay triggered by dipped beam.
