I am approaching numbness having read and read the postings here on GPS - must be the most posted to area. Some brilliant posts and qustions asked and answered.
I have a Question
I had a GS1150 - now have a 1200.
Moved my 2610 accross, with the over engineered alloy Touratech mount - which I had with it and which lived perfectly on the cross bar on the 1150 - which I love the look of -even if its a bit tatty due to the crash and a bit lopsided- ( twas not me who crashed , was the Wa**er who stole it )
BUT as I ve no cross bar to mount it on ( poverty model GS)and have paid $$ to the dealer for a mount that goes onto the four bolts with the Touratech mount on top -the GPS blocks my view of the clocks ( ok I can see what speed I am doing on the GPS ) but still have to look around it to see the warning lights , trip etc.
I ve looked hard at the various options - but would prefer a suggestion or two which one or more of you may have tried.
Pictures would be a help. Part Nos and some idea of price.
I would be very gratefull and apolgise if this has already been dealt with before.
Would be prepared to scrap the Touratech Mount - although I love the look of it - I do often think that should I have to leave the bike in a hurry - as in over the handlebars and thru the screen - just how much of that mount will be imbedded in my Gonads or nether regions........bit like a big hunting knife , nice to look at but could do lot of damage in the wrong circumstances.
