After being all over the board myself on all my various motorcycle excursions i keep landing on google maps. Yes, it doesn't work when you lose your cell signal, but it will still navigate as long as you're already on a route before the signal goes away and you can still download maps for offline use, and at the end of the day it's just SO much easier to search and plan routes than any existing dedicated GPS mount system. So much more intuitive, just because you don't really have to have any idea of the physical address in order to plan a route. hand anybody a GPS and hand me a phone with google maps and i'll have my day's route planned in 1/4 the time.
that said, if you're going to use a phone, quadlock is king. i resisted buying one for years because of the cost but as soon as I did i was sold. Nothing works as well. Mine is mounted through clutch lever clamp bolts, which is really convenient because it doesn't require space on the handlebars and is in a perfect position to be out of the way of my clocks.

Oh thats an interesting thought can you send a picture of the mount set up? Thanks
