Whatever you decide on, make sure it is waterproof...I keep my iphone in my tank bag...thing is waterproof, so no concerns. I have a zumo 550 and scala rider 2...so I can do the music and telephone thing...everything on the handlebars should be waterproofed...I'm sure there are those of us here who have something for an iphone to be mounted on the handlebars...

i used this case from otterbox
http://www.otterbox.com/handheld-pda-cases/2600-series/2600-series-pda-case/

then used a ram mount

and this powerlet adapter

i tried the ram mount aqua box but the clear cover sucked liked the otterbox much better

made a slot for the power cable and sealed with black rtv

works great


kinda hard to see in this pic but it is on the right handle bar

i use a J&M bluetooth head set and can listen to pandora around town or itunes in stereo. I bought the tomtom gps app and it works great too voice prompts over music and i can answer the phone.

With the otterbox you can use the touch screen without taking it out or opening the box but not too good with gloves

The best location for any phone on a bike is in your pocket. When riding, ride - there's no room for that kind of distraction. It's one of the main reasons why I ride - I don't want to talk on the #$$%$$# phone… :lecturef_smilie:

Oh, man!

Forget all those old arguments about the gas and temperature gauge sensitivity and accuracy--now I can have an app that turns my iPhone into a guage that measures G-force for $12.99?!!

That's bloody awesome.

(The lovely bride used to be my G-force gauge, but since I got the backrest-- I don't know, I don't get as reliable feedback...)

I've had an iPhone since they first came out. The problem with using it for anything in a vehicle (GPS, etc) is that a call overrides the APP (one ringy dingy, two ringy dingy...).

Personally, I prefer to stash the phone & use a dedicated device - just my $0.02..

and Lamont - gotta watch those call from your girl friend in the middle of a dyno run - messes up the numbers! :roflblack:
