That only holds the GPS and provides 4 AMPS-compatible screw holes, though. You'll need an AMPS compatible handlebar mount. I went with a kit from GPScity.com ( http://www.gpscity.com/ram-mount-gar...unt-steel.html) as it had all the pieces and I didn't have to search the whole RAM catalog and then forget one piece. |
These were the parts that I used for the Montana install on my 2010 GS:
