Title: RAM mount in unused mirror mount? Post by: Privateer on May 22, 2011, 08:15:11 AM I have bar end mirrors so the mirror mounts on the masters are empty. I'm curious if anyone has tried using something like this (http://www.ram-mount.com/CatalogResults/PartDetails/tabid/63/partid/082065077045066045051052057085/Default.aspx) as a base?
(http://www.ram-mount.com/Portals/0/PartImages/RAMB349U.JPG) If so, any ideas what pitch would work? Title: Re: RAM mount in unused mirror mount? Post by: stopintime on May 22, 2011, 09:16:40 AM I have RAM Mount for my GPS.
The pitch is the same as on mirrors. Just get the right dimension (10mm on Monsters, usually 8 on newer bikes) Title: Re: RAM mount in unused mirror mount?

Just get the right dimension (10mm on Monsters, usually 8 on newer bikes) are you saying the mount I linked above is the right base? "RAM 1" Ball with M10 X 1.25 Pitch Male Thread"?

Yes [thumbsup] Because the right side mirror is usually reverse threaded, this must mount on the left side - unless you swap clamps between left and right.

Left side is perfect, I prefer to take pics with my left hand so this will be the easiest transition. |
