I had my Garmin 60CSx on my SRD and now it lives on the tikit. I use RAM mounts and have an additional window suction mount in the car. Makes it easy to move back and forth as needed. I even use it on my friend's boat with the same suction mount I use in the car. Have lake maps and it works great.
There is a ball mount on the handle bar riser. I wrapped the U bolt with shrink wrap tubing to protect the bar.The rest of the mount consists of 3 more pieces. The factory face plate from Garmin is bolted to the RAM face plate (bottom of photo below). This has a quick connect so it moves easily from the bike to the car etc. The rest of the mount pictured is a locking mount.
The big round handle in the left side of the picture just spins freely when locked with a key.

When I mount the unit I just drop the wrist strap over one of the aero bars in case something breaks so the GPS doesn't take a nose dive into the pavement.
Used it on an adventure we took in San Antonio Texas today on the Mission Trail. Was able to find a route uploaded on the Internet for the trail parts and did some road routing in the Garmin software before we went. Much better than the maps we had from the National Park Service site.
