Just installed my new 660 and found a few facts to share;

1. Harley's handlebar mount kit 92378-09 comes with the wrong RAM ball in the box. They send it out with a RAM ball that has a 1/4 - 20 threaded stud and a 3/8 - 16 lock nut. The 1/4-20 ball does not even stick out enough for any nut to grab hold once on the mount plate. So, I had to order a correct ball from Cyclegadgets.com

2. The mount plate, even with the spacers and a couple extra washers, will still contact the clutch housing. You would have to heat the mount plate and bend it in a vice to make it not hit the clutch resevoir. Not an option, it's going back to Harley

I ended up using my old chrome TechMount to keep it on the bars.

Can't be used on the dash of the CVO Ultra. The Ulra comes with a dash pad and you would have to remove that will leave 2 holes in the fairing. Which isn't a bad option and one I contemplated, until I couldn't find anything I liked to mount in the other hole that remains on the right side from the dash pad bolt

I didn't realize you had an Ultra.  You were talking about a handlebar mount -- I checked your profile, couldn't see what you owned.  So yes you're right of course, it wouldn't work on an Ultra. 

The only reason I came up with this is because Harley didn't make a dash mount for a Road Glide.
