Mounting Carpe Iter Tablet on a Tenere 700

We got our hands on a Carpe Iter Pad, or tablet!
Together with a Carpe Iter Controller and the Drivemode Dashboard app it makes a fantastic system for Adventure or Rally roadbook riding.
However the holder and tablet weighs together 940 g and that is too much for mounting on the small GPS bar on the Tenere 700 because it needs to be mounted further out.
We set out to produce our own mount, using Seymors metal skills.
The result was a sturdy mount wich also fixed the wobbling dashboard problem on the T7.

Seymor is the man! Thanks for sharing, Robert! Very cool addition to your already fantastic T7.

Thanks 🙏 /Seymor

[@scottc3]

Great work. Your guys should make more and sell them. So much better than anything else out there. 👍👍👍

[@markg7834]

One of my most favorite motorbike vlogs. Your excellent production skills are appreciated. Thank you for taking the time to show us this modification you and Seymor came up with.

[@NomadSweden]

We made this design idea together💪 There are certainly other solutions, but they are most likely stuck in the suez channel 😄 /Seymor

Awesome Robert and team! Seymour are a real handyman 💪. Looks like a perfect unit for info/navigation/rally 👍 Bet you guys was jealous on those "enthusiasts" blocking the roads with all the goodies aboard. 👀😂🍺🔥

[@NomadSweden]

Thanks! It is a big thing to get used to but when navigating and roadbooking it will be perfect. The "Raggare" don't have covid or #metoo so life is easier for them :)

Thanks Robert cool vid as always, so looking forward to get back on the bike in uk ,& Europe then this pandemic is over!!!🖖🤞🏻

[@johanholmberg1561]

Good content. One thing thou, i suggest to put a fuse on the wire close to the battery in case you get a short on the cables you installed. Also, using a "double insulated" cable/wire would also be more protected against wear.

Good piece of kit...great work by Seymour! And what's the point of a small screen that you are struggling to 👀. 👌 As your not looking through the screen maybe paint or wrap it to match the bike. The new T7RALLY screen adjusters are good and made of an incredibly tough material 👌 Cheers, Steve

[@kurtshetler9719]

Nice vid! Any long term review? I'm putting together an 890R build, and this looks perfect. I'd like something more than my Zumo.

[@michlsei]

It is huge in the tiny cockpit. You will need to wait for the Tenere 1250 GS Adventure. Enjoy the new gadget.

[@NomadSweden]

I need to wait because you think its too big. Dont get it.

[@michlsei]

@@NomadSweden as you needed to forge your own mount to get the pad installed, it seems you need a bigger bike. I remember you had one many many years ago. I am riding a r1200rt with 2 gps mounts at the moment as the factory mount does not support the Nav VI. There is no such thing as too much navigation.

[@NomadSweden]

@@michlsei Well, I don't think I will go larger again. (never know) but I love the T7 and rally towers are larger than this on 450cc bikes. There are several mounts designed for the T7+Carpe but none is ready yet so we made our own. And of course, this is experimental. I would never say what we do is the best for everyone.

[@maksutt700ymh]

Süper 🙌💯

[@inhumanerections2736]

Nice video! Can I mount this on my derbi 50cc? its a Drd series. "Horor o' dunksprit" is that the new Nomad slogan? Much love.

[@joaopnmarques]

Looks great and look foward for the Nomad custom part 👍 Question: why not plug it to one of the ore existing plugs that turn on/off with ignition?

[@NomadSweden]

I did it like the manual says to do it. It has it's own cirquit which feeds the tablet only when above 13,3 V etc. I didn't want to do any deviations from what they recommend.

[@martijnmw]

Hi Robert, currently watching all kinds of videos about Carpe Iter. Cool craftsmanship! But another question can you tell me what GoPro holder (flex thing) you have on your steer?

[@NomadSweden]

Thanks! I was thinking about doing a live QnA session if that would be interesting. The gopro mount is "GoPro Jaws: Flex Clamp", but we just call it the "dildo".

[@MartinHubbard1]

Great build, did you add a fuse to the Red +12v power cable right at the battery terminal ?

[@NomadSweden]

Thanks. No extra fuse according to instructions. But now I have moved it to the ignition electrics.

[@caraccount863]

Nice video, Thanks for sharing!! I noticed you have your own "Nomad Sweden" van. Are you starting a tour company?

[@NomadSweden]

Not really but we keep a high profile 😊 let the locals speculate

[@CzTifus]

Nice work! Will you race this year?

[@NomadSweden]

It would be awesome but nothing decided.

[@riffthetiffmaster9573]

Hey, which enginguard do you use? I have T7 WorldRai 2022 model and i need better enginguard than the oem is.

[@NomadSweden]

I use GPMucci. He has a website you can google for

[@equlleus]

Right now looks like AJP PR7 :-)

[@NomadSweden]

On steroids 😊

[@Pytte]

if it works vertically, you could fabricate a mount that have the t7 dash and this next to each other, would make visibility much better?

[@NomadSweden]

I like this on top. There are mounts for horizontal mounting out there.

[@advsommertours]

Hey Robert :-) er du tilfreds med din caroe iter, jeg har selv tenere 700 rally men mangler en god navigation - har i øjeblikket Zumo Xt :-(

[@NomadSweden]

Det viktiga är att använda DMD2. Vilken tablet man använder är mindre viktigt. Carpe Iter har slutat säljas av Thork racing nu och de har nya lättare tablets

[@thaimmigrant]

Hey Robert, how that you have had your mirrors for a while, what do you think of the functionality of those? Do you see as good as the OEM ones?

[@thaimmigrant]

now that*

[@NomadSweden]

I like them and will keep them. But function can never be same as ”real” mirrors but that was expected

[@thaimmigrant]

@@NomadSweden Good to know, thank you for the answer!

[@terryhobart]

Did the old Galaxy 9+ not do the job? ie. can't read it in the sun? I'm asking as I'm working on that solution.
