Fits the SPOT 2 on any bar…
If you have a SPOT Mk2 and want this mount let me know. I’ll send it to you for free.
Just zipties on…
If I get a local Victoria, BC pick up they get first priority otherwise if I have to mail it then whomever comments first asking for it will get it.
Twists on and off…
It’s in near mint condition.
SPOT pops in and out…
No longer stock...
I figured a thread that lists all the farckles done to my Kawasaki KLR650 dualsport motorcycle would be useful. I’ll keep this post updated and move it back to the top when I add something new to her.
Body/Comfort:
My buddy Kurt gave me a SPOT satellite beacon that I can use to track my progress on a trip and/or call for help if needed. I wanted to mount it to my KLR650 so I got a RAM mount.
I will eventually mount my SPOT to a dask, the fairing or the windscreen, but until I get everything finalized on my KLR I decided to mount it to the handlebars using a RAM bar mount. This mount is a quick release setup and the part that stays on the bike attaches with zipties.
You then bolt the male end of the QR mount to the bracket that holds the SPOT beacon.
The cradle shown above will now pop into the mount attached to the bike without tools.
Other than turning it on/off I don’t need to access the SPOT frequently during the day so the position under the crossbar is fine and keeps it protected.
I can pull the whole QR mount off the KLR in a couple seconds without tools or I can just pull the SPOT beacon and leave the bracket in place.
If I am not using the SPOT for a while I can remove everything, but the female part of the QR mount shown above.
