Nuvi 200 GPS mounting idea

[geecare]

If you were so lucky as to order your Busa and have it delivered, a hex mounting block will be mounted to the top of the triple clamp. If not, perhaps asking your sales rep at the dealership for a favor. Anyway, the shopping list is as follows:

Home Depot Shopping list:
1- hex block from dealership
2- 1-12mm 1.75 x 25 mm hex bolt,
3- 1 - #8-32 x3/8 flat head screw,
4- industrial velcro,
5- 1/2" washer,
6- sheet metal plate.

Insert the 12 mm screw and center punch, drill a pilot hole and then drill a larger #8 hole.

Drill, counter sink drill and tap.

cut sheet metal plate to size desired and counter sink a centered hole. Velcro and remount. A lock washer may help to lock the plate down if not completely secured.

Velcro the back of the Nuvi 200 and try it on.

Not bad!

Good job.

Good mod. I put velcro on the top clamp to hold mine.

 

[BusaWizard]

Good idea.

Good work, only thing you forgot was a larger hole to run your charge cord for those longer trips.

I just ran it off a battery charge, but an electrical hole would be a great idea. Of course an electrical source will have to be ran. Anyone have an electrical line suggestion?

 

[BusaWhipped]

the power cord is long enough that you can but a 12v power outlet in the trunk and run the cord under the seat and tank to the nuvi

yessir my suggestion is IF you have a battery tender, to get you a cig socket that plugs into the battery tender and just run your wire from the trunk... you can get cig socket kit from whitehorsepress.com

Thats how I would do it.

My worry would be the velcro failing from heat (sun) at some point rather than a bolt mount. Keep us posted on how it goes...
