    All,
    Apologies if this question has been asked already, however, I am looking at mounting a TOMTOM Rider 550 and to fit it to my 2019 Tiger 1200. But as yet I can not find any mounts and the OEM one seem to be for previous models?
    Any advice would be gratefully received.

    Hi Scooby, I’ve fitted the Evotech Performance GPS mount to my 2018/9 XRT. It fits behind the screen and allows the GPS to be mounted above the display. Mines for the Garmin but they do one for TomToms too.

    Yes, it moves with the screen, not experienced and problems with the satnav obscuring the dash and with it being mounted further back and closer to your line of sight it’s easier to use

    Have you got it hardwired in as well? Shame they are out of stock at the moment.

    Yes I hard wired it, I used the Innovv PowerHub2 https://innovv.co.uk/products/powerhub/innovv-powerhub2-technical-specifications/ Since I had other accessories. This makes wiring in powered accessories a lot easier and it controls the powering up so they don’t put stress on the battery when you need it the most.

    Evotech seem to be struggling with supply at the moment. I’ve been waiting for a tail tidy from them for over a month now, but I believe they’re now getting back to full production.

    Ram mount ball screwed into cowl above the clocks. Then stick some foam between the cowl and the dash to reduce wobble. Not perfect and not 100% but about £7. No room for the optional Tom Tom locking mechanism. The screen mount stuff doesn't work well on this bike as the mechanism has a lot of play, they don't get good feedback.

    I have the Evotech mount on my 2018 1200. I like it but it does move slightly at higher speeds.

    I have just bought the Evo-tech mount and will be fitting this weekend, along with the ALTRIDER ROWE PDM60 POWER DISTRIBUTION MODULE, so a busy weekend ahead. Thank you for your help as well though.

    I am trying to wire in a TomTom Rider 410 to a 2016 Explorer.
    I googled a lot of places and someone was recommending taking a switched live from the horn since it is easy to access.
    While I was looking in that area earlier I spotted two unused connectors. I wonder if anyone knows what they are and if one would be a suitable source of power for the TomTom?
    Both looked like the one on the left outlined in yellow. I removed the cap from the one on the right with the red outline.
    Also, what type of connectors are these if I am buying a suitable plug?

    Cheers - Rob.
