alrighty, so i got my 1982 honda nighthawk 750 running today, and i intend to ride the living heck out of it now that its up after 2 years. so i need a phone mount so i can use my phone as a gps and check my speed. i have the one M9 with a speck case on it, the phone costs more than the bike did so uh.. something strong. thanks!

Umm if there is a phone in you vision while driving, you can get a fine for using a mobile phone while driving, even if it's for gps use only...

I'm just warning you for that, it's possible you will never get issues with it, but it might happen.

That doesn't make sense. You'd get a fine for using a GPS in that case. It's not easy to tell a phone and GPS apart when it's in a mount either. 

 

Unless it's specific to the UK, you shouldn't be fined. Here, as long as you're not actually using the phone, or holding it, then it's fine.

Well true, but i'm just telling you it happens. I mean people got fined using google glass as gps because it has other functions.

Using your phone for gps is the same, because you can use it for other things. Rules are terrible i know...

Strange. Here, it's fine to have your phone mounted in your car/on a bike. Obviously, if you get caught texting on it or something similar, then you'll get fined.

4 "pillars" are covered with rubber and when you adjust the mount ,its there not and it wont come up .I flipped my CRF250L while trying to do some "offroading" and I bent my handlebars also broke the clutch lever but the phone was still there...
