will the RAM-B149ZU handlebar mount work with this? - will the mount holes on this cradle fit any 2-hole RAM ball plate?

While I have no knowledge of fittment in re the B149ZU handlebar mount, I can confirm that this cradle will mount up to the standard ram ball plate. I did not use this, in favor of the much sturdier mount from Hellriser Customs, for which I fabed a simple adaptor. This Ram cradle is much sturdier than the Garmin cradle and mount, which while maybe fine for inside the car (intended design usage) I would not recommend for motorcycle handlebar mount use.

I use the Ram Nuvi Cradle for the 2555 with the RAM-B-238 U Diamond adapter plate and it all works great

I did not like that carrier, I coundn't get it tight enough, it would sag down whenever hitting even minor bumps. But this one works great and can easiy moved from bike to bike, even easier if you buy extra ball mounts... this is by far the best, strongest and most adjustable option available, you will need all three pieces in the "frequently bought together section": http://www.amazon.com/RAM-Universal-X-Grip-Holder-1-Inch/dp/B0055PH0XA/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1361030733&sr=8-1&keywords=ram+mount

Good Morning Jim; I'm not sure if the Ram Mount fits your BMW as it does not have the same round handle bars that I have on my Harley. If you have a handle bar with a bolt anywhere on the bars, you might try http://www.accessorystuff.com/images/products/thumb/RAMMountRAMB252U.

It has Integrated AMPS 4 hole threaded inserts for various mounting solutions. If your looking for a bar mount see: Arkon GN032-AMPS Bicycle and Motorcycle Mount with 4-AMPS Connection Compatible with RAM GPS Holders (Black)

Probably not, but I wouldn't put anything in this mount because it sucks. I had nothing in the mount and it fell off the bike and I lost it. Spend the extra money and get a ram mount

Hey Philip, I'm not sure where to get spares for this, you could try the manufacturers website; I do have a spare handlebar mount which I would be happy to post out to you for no charge. The Airzound mount was too narrow for the drop bars on my KTM road bike, so I used a dremel with a diamond bit to cut a groove in the housing of the horn so that I could secure it to the bar with cable ties - fits perfectly and is more secure. Drop me your address and I will post you the mount for free. Best regards, Jeff.

Good day the bolt holes for the bolts used for mounting are about 3.75" apart. This fits our Xsporter crossbars, which are 3 5/8" wide (with the Xadapt3) with a little room to spare. Thanks!

The way the RAM Mounts work is a ball and socket, the cradle has a 1/2 ball on the back of it maybe you could cut it off? Or unbolt i don't remember or have the cradle handy to look otherwise I would. Maybe just look online for the RAM mount website or an online brochure.

Hello,The RAM-B-238U attaches to the back of the cradle, it is a diamond shaped ball and then it mounts on RAM-B-201U.

I would think this might work> Ram Mount Composite Short Double Socket Arm for 1-Inch Ball Bases And then> RAM Zinc Coated U-Bolt Mounting Base with 1 inch Ball

Yes. this cradle has a ball on the back. I have a clamp that goes around my handlebar with a ball on it. you will also need a linkage that clamps on balls on both ends. then you can get many different mounts that will work on the same ball.

check RamMounts web site for your exact fit, but I think this one would work. RAM-B-149Z-GA34U

I used a Akron APGN-VSM mount with the Ram mount. My Garmin needed a 17mm ball mount and Akron unit has it. I mounted the Akron piece onto the Ram mount to make it work.

You need a RAM Mount. This consists of a handlebar clamp with a ball on it, an articulating RAM "arm" that attaches to the ball on the clamp (I have the shortest 1.75" arm) and a ball mount bolted on to the back of the GPS mount. My GPS mount is on a BMW GS, which has a Canbus electrical system, so I have the GPS connected to the battery via a Centech AP-1 fuse box.
