Center mount ball for phone/GPS etc?

[martiniman]

Just brought home a new and my first Spyder RT-S. Let the mods begin. I have a ball mount on my motorcycle and have a 'short arm' that attaches to that and also a cradle for GPS, Garmin Nuvi 550 and also a cradle for my phone. So where and how to attach a new mount ball on the RTS? Best I've seen is a center mount that uses the two bolts just under the key. Very nice. Exactly what I'd like but it is also $80! For probably a $4 part....maybe. I don't like it that much. Anybody use a center mount? I just need the ball. I have the rest.
Thanks.

Excellent!

Thank you! That should work!

I was looking for the same thing yesterday and found some that were cheaper, but they didn't include the required hardware (spacer, fastener,...) If you find something that works that's cheaper, let me know! But, I have purchased other items from Value Accessories and have been completely satisfied. Great supplier!
