I use this on my snowmobile for my GPS with a diff adapter from an old ram mount. It allows me to position it in a visible location yet have it be out of the way. The only gripe i have is the u bar area is meant for bigger bars. So if youre hopting to use this on a smaller than 1" cross bar. You would need a diff part.

Also, dont forget to wrap to prevent paint chipping/rust. I used electrical tape. Should work fine. doesnt move, but vibrations will stress paint eventually :)

I bought this mount a week ago..so far I am very impressed. It does very well on a bicycle, with the right kind of camera however. Using a digital camera produces excessive vibration on anything but glass smooth surfaces. If you have the Tachyon XC..it works great. Very little if any vibration. The plate can be adjusted to almost any angle for that perfect shot. I would highly reccommened this mount if you want something made well..and will last more than a few weeks without cracking or getting damaged. I would give this a 4.7 star rating, out of 5.


RAM Mount update, 11-24....Still works great. Mount is still very sturdy with the right camera..such as the Tachyon XC. Do not use with a Kodak Easyshare M341..too much vibration. I will keep updating.

I just purchased this RAM mount and put it on my motorcycle handlebar.It is a very well made piece,the u-clamp mount is simple and secure,adjustment is a breeze.I use it with my JVC Everio camcorder and my Canon digital camera,they both mount securely and stay in place during the ride.It will transmit vibration but if you have an anti-shake setting on your camera it isn't an issue.I highly recommend this simple,in-expensive and well made mount,I don't think you will be disappointed.

Great design and solid construction. My only complaint is that it transmits too much vibration into my Canon HF-M31 Camcorder. This is largely the fault of the bike that has substantial vibration (BMW r1200GS) and a camera sensor that is excessively prone to vibration. If you own a Canon Vixia (most models) you might want to read up on vibes prior to purchase. No fault to RAM on this one...the problem persists throghout many other brand mounting methods. On the plus side, there are numerous mounting heads available, so even if this won't work for my camcorder, I can easily convert it to an iphone or gps holder...even a coffee mug holder with the purchase of the right bracket. Pretty remarkable really.

This is a nice and solid piece of equipment.Mounting is snap, and you can swivel it in any direction. I took videos on my favorite motorcycle road, and the mount was rock solid.

I installed the adaptor in the TRIUMPH TIGER 1050 handle bar.. Tried an old camcorder (still using mini magtapes) and then a Nikon digital camera with video .. Great fitting and stability also at medium speed . Beware, cameras were protected by the motorcycle windscreen..
I also pushed a small mini webcam Muvi without the screw/plate adaptor, just pressed in the top clamp.. NICE!! It works..

Bought this to use on a V-STROM 1000cc but even straight up my camara still films my bike dashboard and not the road. So I sold it to a custom biker friend and will try a different one. Overall the product is great, well finished, easy to install. Do recommend.

This mount lives up to every expectation I had of it. Easy to install and adjust and works with both my still and movie camera!

I was so impressed by video shot by another biker using this product. The video had none of the jiggly vibration so often encountered with other cheaper mounts. I bought it for a 1250mi bike trip I am going on and hope to get the same results. When I return I will report on the results I got. At this point I can only comment that ram mount is well made from metal with 2 heavy duty rubber balls that dampen the road vibration. It's very easy to install It comes with 2 different size U bolts for mounting on your handle bars.
The vendor shipped within 24hrs and I received it within a few days.

I bought this to mount my new Tachyon Micro HD camera on a bicycle. I also bought the Tachyon factory mount at the same time. This mount is a lot more heavy duty and is much more adjustable for different angles. The Tachyon mount is nice and light but seems to be made for a specific application as it is not as adjustable. In my opinion this mount is much better.
