I just got a Garmin III+ GPS as a gift I want to
mount it on my 1996 Honda Foreman 400.
Which is the best mount?
Where can I get one?
I would like it to be vibration resistant because
we all know the abuse a ATV gets.
Thanks in advance

Garmin's handlebar mount works and is stronger than it looks.

As I recall, a rubber-cushioned pair of half-moon clamps fasten to the bar, froming a bracket; a single screw mounts the GPS receiver to a cradle that snaps into the bracket.

Believe it or not, the thing holds together even at high speed over rocky trails, even through jumps, to the extent a 4X4 utility can jump.

Check the screws for tightness regularly.

Check this one out, it looks like it would work very well.

I have a III+ too. I love it! I'm using the RAM B-149Z-GA2. You can see it at http://www.ram-mount.com/gps/ramgps.htm. They show it sticking up in the air but you can position it almost anywhere. I have mine sitting down inside the bars. Even if I roll it, it won't get damaged.

You can go to Garmin's web site and check out the accessories.
