Review 1 for Arkon Bicycle/Motorcycle Handlebar Mount with Water-Resistant GPS Holder

Would be great for a GPS, but not a large Phone

Really nice product but you cant get to the bottom buttons on a large smart phone. Also can't really get to the side buttons. There also is not enough room for the charger plug and audio out jack, unless you have 90 degree ones. That still might not work.

I order this product to install a magellan maestro 4.7'' GPS to my Honda shadow, it fit right and mount easy in only 15 minutes. In three days was available to pick up at a store in Orlando Fl.

Review 3 for Arkon Bicycle/Motorcycle Handlebar Mount with Water-Resistant GPS Holder

Bigger than I figured

I purchased this to mount on the bars of my 07 Sportster, and hold my phone when I use it as a GPS. It mounted easily, right next to my windscreen mounting brackets. Because of the ball swivel mount, I can position it any way I choose. It's very deep, and came with three extra high-density foam pads to hold my phone closer to the 'front' when zipped shut. It fit my Galaxy Nexus from SAMSUNG (which has about the biggest screen) and I feel it will have no problem taking my Garmin Nuvi 5" GPS. The zipper looks fairly watertight, and there is a small point at the bottom where you can pass a cord through if desired. Overall I am very happy with this item. It's very stable and does not move around even at 'superslab' speeds.

I like this mount for my motorcycle, except that I also bought a 5" screen GPS for this mount and does not fit in it. Now I wasted my money on this mount. The advertisement does not include the size of the GPS that can be mounted in it.

I was going to buy a $600 Motorcycle GPS but this mounts to the handlebars just fine so I have my low cost solution. For the price, you simply cant go wrong with this.

Product will save me hundreds over cost of motorcycle dedicated GPS, as I can now use virtually any GPS unit instead. Only which there was a goose-neck option.

Can't really review it since it was shipped incomplete. Handle Bar attachement wasn't included. I will say that it looked good and my GPS fit in it, but returned it and didn't reorder it. Shipping department should make sure all parts are included with order.

Easy to install. However, the glare on the gps is horrible. Plus I noticed that my Garmin nuvi 265w gets pretty warm when used inside of this unit.

I does what I wanted.

Easy to mount and use with my Garman Nuvi 255w. I had to cut a notch in the foam inserts to make room for the 90 degree USB cable coming out of the back of my GPS. They have a safety screw to guard against the unit coming off of the handlebar mount. The screw intefers with your ability to tighten the retaining nut and prevent movement of youir GPS. I had to leave the screw out in order to use the mount; but it seems to be secure. I used it on my bike and plan to use it on my ATV and Snowmobile.

Mounted with no problems. It's on my Harley Dyna Wide Glide with very loud pipes. I thought the vibration would have an affect on it but didn't at all. The mounting bracket has a sponge like product to resist the vibration. It fit a 5 inch GPS in it. It comes with multiple pads to make sure the GPS sits right up against the front so you can push on the GPS to control it with ease. Overall couldn't be any better!!

This is a very nice item, but I bought it because it was suggested in the area that said,"other people who bought the Garmin Nuvi 1490 also bought this"
Well it is way too small for the Nuvi 1490. Oh well. I will try something else.

The top portion of the plastic face is distorted making the readout difficult under normal to bright conditions, the rest is great!
