    Hopefully this won’t take me too long :)
    As I have no intention of signing up for the Triumph app and trying all that blue tooth malarkey for navigating I dug out my phone holder that I occasionally used on NUDGER :sob:
    995FFEB2-AC09-4155-B4D4-108A158C187D.jpeg The clamp for it is big enough to go round the bars on CERBERUS :cool:
    But the only straight bit of the bar which would be ideal is where the wiring disappears into the handle bar :confused: 83158370-3CDE-44EB-AA58-6668AFE46D78.jpeg So I’m gonna make a small plate which will mount on the two switchgear bolts :) F1B052DE-8C94-48CA-ABFE-4800EF235EF1.jpeg Using the top hat spacers from the first picture I found some suitable bolts that just needed shortening a bit :) 4ACB71E8-DF0D-45A5-A13E-DB2B4D64C5E4.jpeg This way nothing touches anywhere and is easily reversed back to standard :cool:

    Nah you’re alright mate I’ll stick with what I know :)
    Besides it seems like every week someone starts a thread about problems they’re having with this wizardry kinda stuff :(
    Hardly ever use my phone as a sat nav and when I do I only need to look at it :)
    I don’t need it talking in my ear and wouldn’t want to talk on the phone while I’m riding :(

    Gotta cut a hole in the plate so this passes through and can be bolted in place :) E9AF1878-6882-4725-916F-171C4168C570.jpeg marked out and used my hole cutter to start off with :) B031B61D-72A7-4935-A8D9-F584BC78FA33.jpeg now the holes are done I can pass a junior hacksaw blade through and cut the majority of it out :) 431ADFFC-0F5B-43DB-9796-5B2370A8F2B4.jpeg Doing it this way means that I can keep the original form of the ultimate add ons phone mount and it can be re used at a future date :cool:

    I reckon that @dilligaf is real recycle warrior deep down. His use of scrap lying around his garage is amazing and he is doing his bit to save our planet :cool::cool:

    Some filing to be done :) 6176C25D-ED1E-4FC5-A92E-4F782197E5F7.jpeg Happy so far :)
    Drill some bolt holes and it should be good for the phone mount to attach :) 4F229C6F-8D21-4901-9649-93802E68A84D.jpeg 4DFAC752-2A6D-4085-9454-78A0B5661DA1.jpeg Fits like a glove :cool:
    Need to mark out for the bike mounting bolts and probably more cutting so that nothing touches the bike :)

    So I’m gonna have to slim down the mounting plate where it fixes to the bike :confused: B0612489-E8AB-4F80-93C1-A3187B3ADE7D.jpeg This is the final shape :)
    Lots of filing and sanding to get it ready for paint :) 6CF17A0C-A49D-4364-B7F7-54193FA40955.jpeg My new paint booth setup in the front garden :)
    Allowing me to watch the paint dry while I enjoy a well earned mug of coffee :yum 1AE74D6F-3411-4E15-AE64-E7F81D18FB45.jpeg

    All done :grinning:
    The first two pictures are what I will just leave on CERBERUS :cool:
    When I’m sitting on the bike the angle means it’s hardly noticeable and blends in nicely :cool: 68C5329A-FE91-40D4-B191-652D794E22E6.jpeg EB79823D-3404-4CC9-8280-DAC52E771639.jpeg With the phone holder mounted :) 45D2828E-4886-4ED8-A7B7-F1D1D8BDDB8F.jpeg ECD4EE8E-A0B6-4098-99B5-0D51FC707F2B.jpeg not looking forward to parts Six and seven :confused:
    These two are gonna be big projects with lots of trial and error thrown in :(
    Probably be lots of swearing :mad::p

    I think :confused: part seven will be the tow bar but I’ve not convinced myself that it’s doable :confused:
    Doesn’t mean I’m not gonna try though :p

    You have the added bonus of being able to use your phone as a Go-Pro (if you have enough memory) the way it's mounted. :)

    You're doing fine work on Cerberus Dilli, Triumph must be gutted they haven't got your money that you've saved. I must agree with Rspete, I seem to have missed, " Something for Cerberus part 5 "
