Hello,
I was just looking for an alternative way to mount my 305 on my bike. I can't order the mount because I'm in Japan and for some stupid reason, they won't ship it over here. Anyone have pics of their mounting ideas? The only real thing I care about is that it is fairly easy to put on and take off. Thanks ahead of time!

Seller ships worldwide.

Note that it attaches with cable ties, which has always irked me, given that a GPS computer, not needing a magnet on the fork, should be easy to port from bike to bike, but that the computer uses a permanent mount! My solution was to replace the included zip ties with the releasable kind. Works well enough.
