fits almost perfectly onto the front of the ignition barrel on a carbed SV, ideal location... THey do about a million other options though.

I've got a Mitac P550 PDA. I'm using the in-car holder which I got with it to fit the PDA to my bike. I just stick the sucker to the Rev counter clock. It doesn't cover the needle completely so you could still use the Rev counter. I have got to make a 12V d.c. socket though so I could plug it to the bike as it's battery only lasts for 4 hours whilst using GPS. Have you resolved this power problem with yours?

Re power currently only have 3- 4 hr battery life , don't really want to hack into bikes power supply .
Have notciced that you can buy battery extenders for PDA , or higher capacity battery .

I would not trust the sucker supplied with my Pda , it has fallen off twice in the car .......

Currently using in a tank bag which is not great as viewing angle is not good.

I use a RAM mount to fix my GPS to the bike, I got the U-bolt mount (ball on tother end) fits well on my K3S on lefthand clipon. Best bit is that you hardly notice it when no arm mount connected so although the GPS only gets used now and again the mount is left on.

That looks the same allright. I'll go take some pictures of it mounted this week but I'm a few hundred miles away from the bike right now.
