Wanted: Original Nav 5 mounting brackets & bar
Print view
|
Hi All, I moved my sat nav using the Hornig option, but I've had enough of the vibration etc and want to move it back to it's original position. Trouble is, I've lost the original brackets & bits to put it back on the 'bars. Does anyone have a spare set, left over from moving their 'navs? Thanks very much in advance. I'm in the UK, but happy to pay & receive from anywhere! |

Zitat von Zog im Beitrag #1Sorry I can't help, but out of interest, what vibration? I fitted a Hornig wotsit myself few months ago, and the Nav screen is absolutely fine; no different to when it was in its original position KC100->CB100N->CB250RS--------->DL650AL2->R1200RS |

Hi, my Nav V flaps around like a flappy thing whenever I hit any bumps or undulations in the road, which is driving me nuts. Plus, it still manages to foul my bars on both sides. I followed the instructions diligently, so I don't know what I've done wrong, if anything. I'm open to suggestions. |

Zitat von Zog im Beitrag #5 I had the same issue, until someone on this forum put me right: the Hornig mount needs be butted up against the tops of the screen riser "arms". If necessary, take a Dremel to the mounting holes on the Hornig bracket so it can be moved maybe 0.5mm downwards onto the screen riser arms. (I hope that makes sense.) Cheers Paul B. |

Zitat von Paul B im Beitrag #6 I wonder if Hornig have recently adjusted the design a bit then? Because on mine (purchased a few months ago), the horizontal steel bar is definitely butted firmly against the 'screen riser arms' - no other way to do it; and in fact the kit came with two felt/foam pads for sticking on the ends of the riser arms where the bar would otherwise touch, which ensures firm but non-vibrating contact.

It is a tight fit for sure. But when installed the reservoirs clear the bottom of the GPS mount by 3 mm. No vibration at all and a great location. |
