I have a Garmin 660 coming in the next few days and need to figure out a mount.

Obvious is to mount it above the KTM dash, just under the windscreen, but after these front end failures I'm hesitant to add any more weight in that area than necessary, so I'm think Handlebar mount would be best.

The GPS has it's powered mounting with the ram clamp, so I just need a ball on the handle bars to mount that to.

3 options for RAM mounting:
I guess this replaces a bolt on the stock handlebar clamps. Mounts GPS more centrally.  (I'm thinking this is the best)

Then 2 options for actual clamps around the handlebars:

Im not sure which of thee would be better?  I suppose with these you could choose to mount the GPS directly in the middle, between the handlebar clamps, or off to the side.


I know I'm probably overthinking this, but what do you okes do? :biggrin:
