So, it gots me the thinking...since I carry my cell phone in my jacket pocket and cruise the highway alot, how can I make this more accessible?
How about a handlebar cell phone mount? I dont know that this exists yet, but there is tons! of space on the center section of the bars to mount something.
Personally I have a Blackberry, it does GPS and lots of other great things that due me no good in my pocket. So what I was thinking (being a machinist and all) was to make some small aluminum split clamps to wrap the center bar (with a material inlay so it wont scratch). Connect that to a flat base of some sort with either little hooks to hold the phone EXTREMELY secure or some kind of water proof cover (dont know much about the waterproof part sadly).
Any thots on this? Has it been done and I am years behind? Good idea/bad idea? Thots on better mounting, securing? Gimime it all!
Tks!
