Has anyone found a good way to mount a phone (for navigation use) inside the R1200S fairing? I bent up a bracket and mounted it on a mirror bolt, but it's a bit crap!
I've got Helibars and need to check if one of the expansion-nut bar extensions (what are they actually called?) will work, or perhaps use one of the fork-centre mounts from Quadlock, etc.

Re: R1200S phone mount?
The fork centre mounts won't work generally as you do not have a stem with a hole in it. Better if you can find a bar mount or bracket from the clamp bolts on the yoke

Thanks - good point re the lack of stem. I shall persevere...

I tapped a thread into my heli bars then mounted a ball ram for my sat nav

Ah, nice idea as the bar end is in clear space. Pic would be great to confirm I'm on the same track...

Re: R1200S phone mount?
You can use a simple 'U' clamp and fix to the top yoke as below. You have to sacrifice the black plastic infill piece but that's it and it get's the sat nav / phone in the middle of the bars. It was a quick fix that I never got round to changing.

Re: R1200S phone mount?
All done - M8 tapped into the Helibar + a stubby bracket with an Aluminium, 3D-printed round section put my existing cheapie bar-mount for the phone in exactly the right place. I'd bung a photo here but I can't make any 'small' enough!
Thanks for all the useful suggestions.
