Steve,

Thanks for the lead. I'll check out the Touratech site and also give them a
call.

Cheers

Tandy

I have a Touratech GPS mount for my StreetPilot III on my R1100S
(http://www.cycoactive.com/gps/gps_mounts.html#065-0039), and I am very
happy with it. At US$90, it's way below the price of a GPS. I hate
Touratech's we site (www.touratech.com), but the guys there are awesome.
When I was considering buying their mount, I told them my criteria and they
told me they were in the prototype stage of a new mount. They even sent me
images of the prototype to help me decide if I wanted to buy the older
design right away (as I did), or if I wanted to wait a few weeks for the new
design.
