Sorry for the delay, I have been unbelievably busy.

With my Garmin 276C (showing the night mode)

Like I mentioned before the gps mount is the marine version, you can just see a locking tab on the left side

This is the power wire.

The feed comes from the accessory switch on the fairing. I bought an extra one and installed it in the blank hole. It is wired "hot" all the time. My Garmin will shut off when power is removed (can be overridden). This way I can shut down the bike and leave the GPS running. And/or shut the gps off with a switch.

The wire is long enough that I just pull it through the grommet when I want to use it. My GPS has a Li Ion battery, so I don't need power to it all the time.

Hope this helps

Thanks a bunch Porthole.........I received the Tech Mount.  I see that you had to drill some holes in it.  I was wondering about that.

I have two different Garmin bike cradles so it's just a matter of deciding which one that I want to go with.

Can you tell me a little more about the Li Ion battery?  Do you know if it will work with the Street Pilot 2730?

No, I don't have anything like that.

Porthole

That's a great mounting setup. Where did you find the marine GPS cradle. I am looking for a nice cradle for a gramin 2720 that has a good latch mechanism to hold it on firmly. The whole setup I got from Ram looks flimsy.

Thanks

Try a Touratech.  They mount up to a ram mount system.  I got a chrome Ram Mount from these folks.  Not the cheapest but I had everything in a couple of days.

Forgot to add that the Touratech is designed for off roading.  The 26xx or 27xx locks into the cradle.  It's not going anywhere.
