Will my new Spyder dock work on Tri Axis handle bars??

[Spyders and Horses]

Got my Tri Axis handlebars!! Plus!

Hi all,

I just rode home with my new handle bars and it’s like a different bike! My neck,back, shoulders and elbows don’t hurt at all. Thank you to all who recommended them! :bowdown:

I also added (since the bike was in the shop and end of year discount) the Akrapovic muffler! It sounds great and has just enough growl for me.

One question......was it the 6mm 1.25 ram ball mount that fit in the TA handlebars?
the one from my Spyder dock does not fit, the threads are larger...

Thank you both for your suggestions.

I think the ram ball and moving my usb may do the trick. I see Lamonster has come out with a new phone holder that’s more sturdy than the X mount and could also be an option.

Seriously considering a custom seat also. Rich’s custom seats is here in PNW.

Most likely do both. Did get a quote from dealer of $250 to install Tri axis handle bars.

UtahPete thanks for the pics.

Did you get the bars installed for $250 ?

It cost me $300 for tech time which included handlebars, muffler and rerouting my USB port.
So I would say “yes”

It's 6 mm but I don't recall if it's 1.0 or 1.25 pitch. It's the same as all the other 6 mm bolts and screws on the Spyder.

Be sure to carry that 8mm wrench that came with the T-A bars with you, at least until you are absolutely certain you have the bars adjusted perfectly for you. I've heard of some folks adjusting their bars during long rides but I don't. The bolts to do the adjusting intentionally turn quiet hard.

I use two RAM ball mounts in the Tri-Axis threaded hole. One for smartphone with X-Grip and one for the handheld CB when I need it. (not on all the time)

Use the M6 RAM ball into the hole of the Ball with mount with rubber washer underneath. I also cut the nut shaped part of the M6 Ball off so it had more threads to screw down.

Thank you so much, exactly what I was looking for! Pictures helped :clap:

Thanks for the info. I found this with hopes to not have to cut down the nut shaped but only add a correct length SS set screw. Will this work? https://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-B-273-M6U

This is my gps mount on the tri-axis bars. I think you could probably remove the gps cradle and attach the Spyderdock to the mount.

I thought I'd resurrect this thread since a new member just PM'd me with questions about it.
