windshield bag with dash mounted gps (2010 black CVO ultra)
« on: September 16, 2010, 04:34:13 PM »

I just ordered a clearview 9.5" windscreen and want to add a bag when I install it.  What are my options? Nothing I've found from the MC says it works with dash mounted GPS.

Thanks

I don't have a pic handy, but this is what I did. I bought the two packet version from Harley. The 3 pocket seemed too wide and will interfere with the GPS.

When I tried it on at first, the angle of the mount was such that it forced the whole thing up, and it pushed too hard again the windshield to work. Not good.

So, it took everything apart, and I drilled the 4 rivets out of the the pockets and bracket mount.  I then relocated the holes out about 1/4" from the edge of the bracket, and ended up using small short stainless panhead screws with washers and locking nuts on the inside of the pockets. I tried to find rivets but I couldn't source any locally with wide enough shoulders to secure it to my satisfaction. However, with the screws, I can take it apart easily later and swap it if I ever find nice rivets that'll do the trick.

Came out great. I'll try to post a pic tonight.

Here you go. I removed the Zumo so you could see it a little clearer, but it works out with the Zumo attached that the flap just bearly touched the edge of the zumo. As you can see, the 3 pocket wouldn't have worked very well, as it would have been totally behind the Zumo, and I would guess with the modding necessary to work with the dash pad, the 3rd pocket would have not fit over there anyway. This works great.

Sorry I don't have the link but do a search there are threads about doing the dash mount. It contains parts list and pics.
