I had a couple that kept wanting to come out also,ended up puting a bit of black silicone around the outer edges and tapping in with a mallet(never came loose again). :thumb:

Mama got me a TomTom GPS the other day(for my B-day,the big 59...found some hairs startin' to grow outa my ears so i think it's almost over :lol:)since i get lost all the time,really just wanted one to check my speedo(75 indicated is actually 70,think an indicated 100 was something like 91 or 92).Of course(naturally)the one she got me(TomTom VIA 1535 TM)appears to be one of the few you can't do the Ram stem mount thing with(can't locate a cradle that holds the unit/that will attach to the Ram ball thingamagig).Big screen(since i'm half blind :lol:)...wonder if i can download some porn on that bitch? :lol:For now it has to be a bit off center on the tank for that suction mount to grip,and i rigged up a quick safety lanyard in case i want to check the speedo at the indicated 186 and the sonofabitch blows off. :lol:Probably never use it much,but it does beat the hell out of havin' hand written directions in my pocket and pullin' over all the time to see where in the hell i'm at(now it'll be the directions to work this damned thing,i can't remember shit). :hys:

I work in a fabrication shop and with very little effort I made a bracket that hooks on the top two tank bolts and it holds my gps beautifully  :)

Good deal. :tu:

Ended up going with some of the Ram Mount ball system stuff that should work out good(along with a cig. lighter socket,etc.,ended up at $90 total...along with the $220 she spent on the damned GPS,over $300 total... and all i ever wanted was a $90 Garmin just to check my speedo error :lol:).
