how to modifiy the GPS mount to be adjustable instead of fixed

[Gunner 02]

My wife has an RT Limited and wants to be able to adjust the look angle on the GPS mount. The OEM is not adjustable which makes it hard to see if you ride sitting up taller. Anyone have any suggestions, we don't want a costly modification, just one that is simple and works well.

Thanks,

For those very reasons is why i just mounted the JT dash mount. He is a vendor here and it is a great product! Helps keep ones eyes more on the road than the BRP factory location.

There are all sorts of RAM mounts available. If you want something that works "with" the OEM product I am not sure. I purchased this for my RS

My OEM mount on the 2014 "tilts" so you can set the angle for comfortable viewing. It may just be a matter of loosening a bolt or 2

Added stainless steel washers(each side/bottom) as spacers and longer lower stainless screws. I'm 6'4" and this worked fine for me.

I loosened the mounting bolts a small amount to adjust the tilt.

The angle is fully adjustable. From almost flat to almost straight up and down what more do you want??? :shocked:

You can also buy the BRP adjustable tilting mount for $160.

2011 has a rigid mount, not flexible adjustment.

My dumb question for today... pps:
Are you SURE that you can't loosen it up a bit, and adjust the angle of the G.P.S.? :dontknow:
I've not looked at the mounts on a 2011, but it seems odd that BRP would make a change like that, and not make it known...

Hey Mike,

They're very proud of their accessories.

In fairness, they're no different than the others.

Any one know if the stock mount off of a 2014 RT-L will fit on a 2011? If so I have one that I had to replace when I put the adjustable handlebars on. I would let that go real cheap.

 

[Bob Denman]

Yup! It'll work... :thumbup:

 

[stevedfive]

And it's adjustable, correct? If so, there is the solution.

Correct.

Well that's something learned. Sorry I assumed it was the same as mine.

So 2011 is fixed and 2013 is adjustable. What did they do for 2012?

 

[Bob Denman]

They kept their fingers crossd; hoping that nobobdy would ask!

Mine is a 2012 and it's fixed fixed

Stefan,
At least you now know, that it'll only take a one-year upgrade in order to get the adjustable mount! :thumbup:
