Waldo Jeffers Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Hello fellow riders. Sorry if this has been covered in a previous thread. I just recently purchased the TomTom Rider 550 GPS and it came with the RAM handlebar / brake reservoir mount. Went for a nice ride today and it works great but would much prefer to have it mounted in such a way that it's more in my line of site. Has anybody seen a solution for mounting the Rider 550 above the existing instrument cluster? Preferably an off the shelf unit, because I'm not really setup for crafting my own. Also, I might add that I'm using an MRA touring screen currently but would like to use the sport screen during warmer weather. Any and all feedback welcomed. Thanks, WJ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member micah2074 Posted January 29, 2021 Premium Member Share Posted January 29, 2021 No, the windshield is different. There may be a similar mount for the 20. 1 Let’s go Brandon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waldo Jeffers Posted January 29, 2021 Author Share Posted January 29, 2021 Yeah @betoney sent that earlier. I would prefer to have the ball centered so the GPS isn’t cantilevered to one side. However, I might end up going that route. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 2nd link I posted is for the mount with the ball centered above the screen adjustment mechanism. ***2015 Candy Red FJ-09*** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waldo Jeffers Posted January 30, 2021 Author Share Posted January 30, 2021 I love the simplicity of the flat patterned one. Sorry if I’m sounding like Veruca Salt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
