I am looking at buying a Garmin Montana 650 or a rhino and was wondering how you guys had your GPS mounted on your sleds. Any pics would be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance.

On my 2010 M-8 I don`t have the Garmin Rhino mounted all the time in case of rollover and it might get in the way of the grab bar a little bit. But Ram Mounts makes a bolt with a ball on the end that takes the place of one of my handlebar mounting bolts. When I am heading back to the truck I slide the adapter on the ball on the handlebar and the Rhino also has the snap on case with a ball on the back and the adapter slides over each ball and tightens allowing for some up and down adjusting. Sorry no pics, but check out Ram Mounts, nice products.
Garmin Montana using Garmin Montana AMPS mount with RAM balls/short arm...hardwired to sled for always on power.

i dont have a pic of my 655t mounted, but this is a pic of my 530hcx. i used the ram mount,with the short arm, never had a problem and i rolled it many times down the hill, with the 655t i used the ram mount, but did not mount the ball to the back of the cradle, i just mounted the cradle directly to the dash in the same spot
I mounted the cradle for my Rhino 530HCX directly to the hood deck in front of, and to the left of the MFD. I opted against the ball mount.
I had to remove the air intake from the underside of the hood and even though the bracket is secured with NyLoc nuts I don't want to risk sucking a screw into the engine so I over-taped the heads with aluminum heat-tape (which sticks like crazy in all temps)
Here's a couple of crappy cell phone pics.

I use the ram mounts for my 530 also. Did have the base break once in a roll over and a branch tore the rino out of the mount once. Luckily I found it both times. Now I have a Wii write strap wrapped around the gps to the bars. I use the same to keep helmet cam on helmet also.
gps mounts
i run a rino 655 on my xp and xm
i use the ram cradle but mount it directly to the dash i dont use the ball system
it keeps the gps very close to the dash, i have barrel rolled the sled several times, never had a problem, i do use an SS fishing leader as a teather to the riser i will try and post a pic or two
