Sat nav fitting point on a sv650s?
 

Ive got a old nokia 5800 which can be used as a sat nav. Ive been looking into fitting it onto the sv650s and noticed as the naked sv has the hi-risebars that fit across the yoke its easier to fit something like this. Has anyone worked out a way to do this on the 's'

Heres the kit....

You could convert your yoke to one from a naked bike with the normal bars but this usually requires longer cables for your clutch etc.
Will that bracket not fit to the clip-on bar somewhere? Worth measuring up by contacting the supplier?

If that mount has a RAM mount fitting, then the best thing to buy is a Teleferizer RAM mount for the S

http://www.telferizer.com/

Takes about 10mins to fit. If that mount doesn't have a RAM fitting, then I'm sure there must be one about, have a look in the links on the Telferizer site. £27

I've got a Telferizer, its great.

If not one of these, but its probably the wrong shape

They are crap mate and are not waterproof at all. I got one for my HTC and didnt fit it in the end. I was going to "modify" an old bycicle bar end to mount to the little free space on the clip-on. Then bend and cut to the shape I needed that would allow me to mount this.

I put the lot straight in the bin it was that bad.

I use something similar to this on my pointy:

Lol - Mine's a little more home made (my wife sowed on some velcro strips.. bless!)

TBH its a pain to take on and off every time you want to use it. I'd be keen to find a better system for mounting my tom tom..

The givi s850 is really good though (according to other members who use it)

Will keep an eye on this thread.

Muzikill, is your bike a pointy? Your avatar is too small at the screen resolution I use. If so a RAM mount like this will do the job. Hongman tried it recently on a curvy and he thought there wasn't enough space, so he bought a telferizer.

And this ebay seller sells RAM mountable cases for £20

I am looking for a similar solution for my smartphone (Samsung Omnia Pro) on my XT600 as I use it for GPS electronic OS mapping, and Google Maps Satellite view when off-road biking. I don't need it to be waterproof, I just need it to be tough enough to hold the phone securely when riding over rough ground, and allow the phone to be on charge via the USB port, as the GPS uses the battery very quickly.

Its a pointy ralph, i wondered if the left bar had enough room and your photo proves it. I was looking at fabricating a bar to mount somewhere as well.

I think this is the right RAM mounting - correct me if I'm wrong:

Codejack, Ralph - those links still point to the same seller who codejack says the one i suggested wasnt very good.
