New Tires are Awesome, GPS Question

[DavidTaylor]

Installed a set of Michelin Pilot Power 2s a couple of weeks ago and have put a few hundred miles on them. They feel much better than the Corsa IIIs that were on the bike when I got it. Given, those were fairly well worn, but I'm really impressed with how planted the bike feels and how much better it corners on the PP2s when you start getting into the fun bits. This also helped me confirm that the 'Tard is sprung too soft for me, so I'm working on getting the suspension resprung and tuned up in the next couple of week.

I'm thinking about mounting a GPS on the bike (Garmin Zumo 550). I have the DP tank cover and tank bag, and doing some quick test fits with a handlebar mount this afternoon I couldn't find a good location that didn't get into the tankbag well before getting to the steering lock. Has anyone mounted one of these, or other stuff, on the handlebars with the DP tankbag rig? If so would you mind sharing what you did, and maybe some pics? Thanks!

I use my Garmin 76 when I go to the mountains, and I mount it on top of the Speedo with a piece of foam and a strap. I suggest you mount it as far forward as you can if you want to look at it while riding, just so you can look forward easier.

I've got the Fabbri taller flyscreen on so there's no space above the speedo for it. I have the RAM mount setup I used on my GS I had before the Hyper, but with the tankbag on I couldn't find a good way to mount it without hitting the bag.
