1200 Sat Nav?

Check out andyw website, got loads of info on nav fitment.

I use a combination of my phone and a garmin car one, on a ram mount fitted to the bars. I dont have BT headset so its a watch the screen jobbie so not ideal, but cheap (had the nav and ram mounts, the case cost about £15) and does what I need it do do. Plus being garmin you can make routes up offline and load up to the unit.

 

I use a Zumo 500 in a Naviholter bracket, works well for me .Bracket is German made and good quality

 

Or a RAM ball mount fitted to one of the bolts on the handlebar clamp.

 

I'll second this.
Get the correct Navihalter bracket, the 3 & 4 bolt screen is different. I've got the 3 bolt (2010-2013 one for sale).

This puts it above the clocks and makes it just visible from the front on the Pikes Peak screen.

Zumo 660LM for me.

 

I use a 590LM , though its more than a satnav for me. Its a hub for my music, phone and tyre pressure sensors also. I changed from a 660LM. Both units got me through about 3k miles of Europe last year without missing a beat. The 660 is still being sold and is the better value unit in my opinion as it is most definitely still an extremely capable device.

 

I also use a Garmin Zumo 660 with the Naviholter mounting. I brought the Zumo 660 back in 2010 and it's still OK apart from not booting properly every time on power up. I've used the Naviholter mounting brackets on both 2010 and 2013 Multistradas - they put the sat nav in the perfect location above the "clocks". I don't like the audible route reminders, so turned them off and now just look at the screen.

 

This is my solution, works well for me.

 

If you intend using a tank bag at any stage I'd certainly go for the Navihalter. I've tried both methods,handlebar mounted and Navihalter, and the latter is by far the best solution IMHO.

 

Handlebar mounted does get in the way a bit, if I were buyng new stuff I'd have the navi above the clocks fitting

 

When I bought my Multi in December it already had a DP Garmin Zumo fitted. It's a good setup and doesn't obstruct any view of the clocks, need to use it a bit more but on first impressions I like it. Just bought a pair or Scala Bluetooth headsets to pair with it but they haven't even been out of the box yet, looking forward to using them together.

 

VJ, I have a full luggage set on my pikes peak too so no worrying about a tank bag. The placement is right in the middle of the bars like:

All using the standard fitting kit supplied by Ducati.

 

Unless you have the replacement handlebar top clamp missing, rendering the rest of the kit unusable!!!

I cant find a pic of mine bit fits just like that last one, except I used some cable ties to hold the ram mount in place. Works perfectly

 

Only one i can find at the mo, and I use a 4 or 6 inch mounting arm dep if i have tank bag

 

I have the 390lm fitted on the Navihalter bracket, I have Aztec spacers as well which gives it loads of room. Have just installed an interphone intercom tonight and got it paired up so looking forward to testing it out under speed.
