    So I bought myself a little present today, ordered up the Garmin 60csx GPS unit. My plan is to switch it between my dirt bikes and VFR. For the VFR, what kind of mount do you guys use? I've got stock handlebars.

    Did you come up with a mount for your 60 series Garmin? I've got the 60 CSX and would like to mount it on my 03'. I've been carrying it in the map window of my tank bag, but I don't like taking my eyes off the road to see it. You have to look just about straight down to see it. I've seen pictures of the various mounts offered by Garmin, but I don't see where I could put them on my VFR.

    I responded to your PM, but for anyone else who was wondering:

    I bought the mount here: RAM Mounts from eMounts - View Selected Products

    It's part #RAM-B-149Z-GA12U (U-Bolt Medium)

    I'll try and get around to snapping some pics this coming weekend, but for now here's the ball mount in place (not my bike) so you can see where the two bolts are I was talking about on the fuel tank.
