Ryan, I know this review is 3 years old but I’ve been hearing concerns about cellphone mounts and vibrations killing new phone’s OIS sensors. This seems like a perfect scientific problem for you to solve - most shock absorbent phone mounts.

[@comptrjnky]

Not just concerns about vibration but down right angst. Killed my iPhone 11 Pro not knowing about the vibration issue. Then went back to my 7 for a bike phone/gps (having to manage 2 phones since I wasn’t going to abandon my 11 due to the cost and awesome photo quality). Waited for months till I found quad lock which sold a $150ish set up that claimed to have a vibration dampening system built just for the iPhone. Well that turns out to BS with a side crap. After riding for a couple months (I’m a daily rider rain or shine) and found my camera starting to fail again or at her the autofocus failing because the vibrations damaged the gyros. Would be awesome if some actually researched their product and could tell us which mount to use. Looks like I’ll have to down grade to an android lol

[@killorbytes]

@@comptrjnky I was actually thinking about using an old iPhone 7 or even a 6 for GPS. Ultimately I picked up the Beeline. It's winter in the Northeast US right now and the bike is away. But all accounts say it's a pretty damn good GPS. We shall see.

[@FortNine]

Hey! You've got a couple options there. A mirror mount (fortnine.ca/en/shad-cell-phone-holder-mirror-bracket) is a good choice. We also carry a RAM Mounts base that attaches to the brake assembly (fortnine.ca/en/ram-mounts-brake-clutch-base). There are a few other options from RAM too - bolt head mounts, reservoir cover mounts and gas tank bases. Check out this page for all of them: www.rammount.com/activity/motorcycle-bases. Hopefully one of those will work for you. Good hunting. ~RyanF9

RAM also has a simple bolt with a ball attached that replaces one of your bar riser bolts. Then you attach a 2 ball extension to it. I use it in my Triumph and it's rock solid.

[@just4Phuns]

I am surprised that you only have 539k followers. The quality of videos produced, the knowledge presented, and the information provided on this channel forces me question the motorcycle community (on KZbin). Massive views for motorcycle videos should not be generated by reckless stunts, dangerous acts, or illegal actions. Creators should be praised and rewarded for content that makes everyone who rides: safer and more informed. In my opinion you should have a lot more subscribers, but I am confident that your following will continue to grow. I say that in the most respectful way possible. The knowledge provided in your videos gives an energy to a slowly but surely declining youth-driven motorcycle community. The videos you post are not only helpful, but highly informative. These videos help people (myself included) gain a better understanding about motorcycles as a whole. These videos also do an amazing job addressing specific issues people may face when determining what is right for them. I thank you for spending your time creating such quality content. It does not go unnoticed. After following your channel, and watching a fair amount of the content you produce: I feel that I am much more confident; not only in purchasing decisions, but riding as well. I always take your suggestions into consideration when looking into new parts, helmets, tires, exhausts, you name it. Your videos have helped me understand so much; from choosing my first bike, to what tires I should get. You go so far in depth on every single topic you talk about, and the detail makes these videos unrivaled. The videos you provide on your channel are not only very helpful for myself, but have proven invaluable to the people I have recommended them to. Please continue to keep up the good work. Thanks!

I went with the Ram Mount. It's awesome. They also have so many different configurations that you can build a set up for any phone to work with any placement on the motorcycle. I recommend using the rubber web to secure the phone. The x-grip itself doesn't seem to grip well enough if you hit a big bump.

[@Wabbit1961]

Number one problem with quad lock and rockform is they're only actually good for iPhone and some Samsung. You have to have a smooth plastic case and buy the optional adhesive mount. You have to be an idiot to trust adhesive. My choice of stem mount is TechMount.

Been running the Ram Mount on the Lucky Daves Lucky 13 handlebars on my 2016 HD Lowrider since purchase. Lost my phone out of the mount at just shy of 100 mph with a STRONG crosswind. The phone was in a LIFEPROOF case and alive when found! I immediately bought the safety web and some extra rubber boots and never an issue since!

[@Streetmenacemc]

JZilla76 man the same thing happened to me today. I was passing a car around 100 mph and my phone flew out my ram mount. I have the safety web and that delayed it flying off so that was the only reason why I was able to catch my phone

[@Meldonator]

Lot of humour on this one, love it ! :D

[@danofzanzibar3924]

Used the ram mount x grip with the rubber keeper. Kept my phone nice and secure in a crash. Hell, I had to turn off my bluetooth afterwards because my music was still playing.

[@FortNine]

Oh damn - hope you healed up alright after the crash? Glad that X-Grip did its job though! ~RyanF9

[@danofzanzibar3924]

Doing alright now. I was impressed with how well the ram mount worked though. I figure that was a good crucible for the mount. The phone didn't even budge.

[@SpudEater]

It's funny that you mentioned that lol, I crashed with the X grip too last year and my phone stayed snug. I am just now finishing the final touches on my rebuild of my bike, I took the rest of last season off to basically rework the entire bike while it was out of commission. That mount is still on my handlebars to this day lol

Ram mount works awesome, I ride crazy enduro and trials and never had it fallen, even when I crash , The issue I had was I flipped over the bars one day and ram mount dug into my stomach, I have a phone shaped bruise , got checked for internal bleeding , probably not the safest mounting area on the bars.

As someone who has a ram mount on an R1, I love it, it has never failed me even at high speeds I never worry about it falling off

Superb review. To the point, entertaining and above all - accurate.

[@g33dav3y]

I just put a 2"x5" strip of industrial strength Velcro loop material on the back of my phone case, and then I put velcro hook wherever I want to mount it. A patch of velcro hook on my gas tank is all I need to hold my phone securely. It dampens vibrations, it's grip gets stronger when shook or twisted, yet the phone comes off easily with one hand.

After watching this video, I bought Ram toughclaw and I have to say, that is the best investment I ever made.Thank you Ryan and keep up the good work!

[@Jagshemasher]

The RAM forkstem mount works well but not if you follow the included mounting instructions. The problem is the included hardware includes a single locknut that tightens to a point that the bottom plastic nut pocket washer (Part F) that grabs the rubber just rotates and the whole assembly does not tighten inside the fork stem hole. The way to fix this is as follows. Instead of cutting the rubber 1/8" above where it meets the forkstem per the instructions - cut it at the point where it meets the forkstem. Reduce the distance between the top cut and the bottom cut to about 3/4" rather than the 1" stated in the instructions. Next - buy an additional 5mm nut from Home Depot (not a locking nut). When assembling the mount washer (Part E) should be a size that is slightly smaller than the diameter of the fork mount hole (so it can slide down inside the fork mount. As you put together the whole assembly the instructions put the 5mm nut on first to it goes into the bottom of part F and behaves like a captive nut. This is not a lock nut and will now spin properly when the main screw is tightened. Next put one of the extra smaller washers and the brass locknut (Part D) below the extra Home Depot nut (that is now sitting inside Part F). Tighten Part F until there is just a small amount of vertical movement in rubber cone (Part A). Then tighten locknut so that it and the washer above it press lightly against Part F. The bottom washer and the lockout will now prevent Part F and your Home Depot Locknut from falling off when the assembly is loosened (if you want to remove it). New insert the whole assembly into the fork stem and tighten the screw. Everything should now tighten properly. If you want you can add a bit of locktite to the screw thread on the Home Depo nut - it can prevent it from coming lose as this is not a locknut however I'm quite content to periodically check the tightness of the mount and add a 5 mm Allen key to the bike's toolkit just in case it ever needs tightening while out on a long trip.

The finger mount holder is the best one. 3 different sizes of fingers and holds cell 360 covered. 3 inch arm fully adjustable and handle bar mount which holds the best as well. I ride with 100 n more all season so I did the research before I bought it. $53 for all parts and 5 minute install. Trick is put some electric tape w sticky side out around ur point of the bar mount piece position. Stops any scratches from movement. Hasn't budged or failed me once in 2 years 16000 miles.

Thankfully I found it in some bushes, but from now on if I'm doing wheelies the phones going in my jacket. I realize that its probably not designed to hold a phone for wheelies but just a warning to others so you don't have to spend 2 hours searching in bushes for your phone.
