Radar detector mounting?
Has anyone come up with a good solution to mount a radar detector? I currently use an Escort Passport 9500xi.

There are some 25-30 mph areas on my way to work and there is one place I can get up to 60-65 in a 50 mph. Where I live if you don't do 10 mph over the posted you get run over.

How about my GPS and phone charger? I also thought about a stand for my laptop but I would have to use dual stands to get equal wind resistance where it doesnt affect the balance weight ratio. But first things are first, the most important is the flip out tv next to the subs Im going to mount

^ What do you use for GPS?
I borrowed one for a trip and liked it. I now want one for the bike; but havent checked into what is out there with respect to water proof and easy to use on the bike.

From pictures it looks like it has suction cups for a windshield. Would that work? Else I would probably rig something up, since they may not make one. Like double zip-tie it to a clamp or something. But it may not be the most stable O.o
But that is what I would do if I couldn't find anything online.

One thing to keep in mind when shopping for a GPS unit is screen brightness. In a cage, out of the sun, a GPS screen doesn't need to be as bright as one on a motorcycle does. So just because you have one in the car and like it, doesn't mean you can see the screen when on a bike.
