Ram Mount + X grip
Ram Mount + X grip.
You figure out which Ram ball mount you want to use and then you match the x-grip to your phone.
I love mine for trips that I don't know where I'm going.

As I see it..!!
you will find the best liked and most used is the "x" mount. Works for many devices and easy to use...

I'm running the Xgrip as well. Not totally thrilled with it. It would be nice if the phone didn't rotate once secure. I tried to adjust it so that it stops either full left or full right, but it always ends up kinda crooked.... Just my OCD I guess..

Be careful with the x gripper. Shortly after I installed mine, I saw a video where the phone jiggled loose and blew right off. Yikes! I've been afraid to try it.

I have the X Grip Ram Mount mounted in the center of my handlebars and it grips my phone pretty tight. I have had it for nearly 3 years with no issues. I have used this same one with my 5s and now with my 6 plus all with great results. Perhaps the person who did the video got hold of a lemon....
I guess if you wanted to be really safe you could attach a safety line from the phone to the base of the mount. I am confident that I don't need it though...

Thanks. You'd never think being that small that it would hold that well. I'm impressed! Probably will order one for each of my bikes. Just have to figure out how I want to do the 17mm Garmin gball side of it. Wish it was the Ram B size instead....
Thanks again for the info!

Smart Phone Mount for the ST
Snoopy:"What year and model is your bike?
I ask because your bike is all black but your handlebars are silver? Why silver on a black bike, my handlebars are black on a yellow bike. Just seems odd. "
Snoopy, my bike is a 2013 ST (basic, no frills) and that is the way the bike came. I just have not given a second thought about it.

Mine is a 2013 STS, Circuit Yellow w black wheels and trim.
I wonder why they did a silver handlebar on a black bike?

I plan on trying this (http://www.gpscity.com/ram-mount-sna...p-sba-rgu.html) since I currently have Ram mounts on my Spyder. It's 17mm on the small end and 3/4" on the large end.
