I want something well made so it will survive on the trails and also to be secure.

Do you have to buy the powered Garmin mount & another mount (like Touratech?) and combine the two? i really dont never anything about this...any info welcome.

cheers
Don't know about anyone else Phil, but I don't like my Zumo on the bar up near the screen as there's too much vibration going on. I rigged up the stock ram mount on the handle bars right in the middle, and used a cheapo plumbing U bolt from the harware store to secure it. I like it there and it's somwewhat protected too. I hardwired to the spare power source in behind the dash.

As for the mounts - Ebay has everything you need.

I do like those Montanas....
