Review on 🏍️ Arkon MC2C Premium Aluminum Motorcycle Handlebar Mount for Garmin nuvi GPS - Retail Chrome by Kristina Kajer

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Jiggle, rattle and it rolls!

I love the design, the material and the quality. However, my Garmin GPS rotates and falls out of its preferred set position due to my Harley Fatboy's engine shaking. The GPS must constantly change its position on the ball mount. A little wind and it rotates on the ball mount and the GPS falls into place. I'm looking for a solution to keep the HOS in place. Currently experimenting with adding an elastic silicone band to the GPS mount to hold it more tightly to the ball mount to prevent the GPS from twisting and falling onto the ball mount; Some friction needs to be added to the ball for the Garmin ball receiver. Look at the photos where I tried to fix the situation. Otherwise it looks great on a motorcycle, although with real functionality there is a downside. The GPS needs to stay in place, and right now it doesn't. I will update if I find a solution. 3 stars so far for the price. That should work better, but the ball is too slippery, so to speak. Any vibration and my GPS rolls!
