Looking for a good mounting system for my iPhone. Can’t find anything that works with Dragster. Has anyone done this before? If so, what parts did you use?

I honestly think your best solution would be to get a gascap mount and mount your GPS/phone onto that with a rammount.

What I used for my F3 are TECHMOUNT TECH 4G GRIPPER & TECHMOUNT TECHMOUNT EURO MOUNT 50MM 4-70050X

But looking at your handlebar and dashboard...that might not even work. Its so close together that it would probably block full steering.

Bought two mounts, one for GoPro (Small ball) and another for a TomTom navigation system (Larger ball).
It was necessary to loosen the clutch lever and slide toward the centre.

The company in the UK is called RyderMount: https://ridermount.com/[/url]

Images are of the TomTom mount

Hi Atom,

For my 2017 Dragster RC, I used RAM Ball mounts. Image attached / please see yellow arrows.

With kind regards,

But in that position will it not obscure the dash?

Also fitting a GoPro in that position you would be filming the speedo, which is not a wise move:frown2::frown2:

There is a ram mount for the handle bar. Mount between clutch side switch and grip. Requires a little shaving on side to clear, but works well.

Hi Bruce, Fortunately, my device (a combination GPS / Dash Cam phablet [detailed in another thread]) does not obscure the instrument cluster thanks to the stalks / arms chosen... plus the upright seating position of the Dragster lets me see over the device. The same applies to the 2nd RAM ball mount for the GoPro... a stalk / arm is used to position the lens to not record the instrument cluster. If you'd like, I could take another image while seated to show the relative positions. Take care / ride smart! M Squared

Have to say from the attached photo that surprises me. Can you view all of the instrument information?

Awkward to access the key?

See photo, that is what I have, no shaving required, just move the clutch assembly nearer to the centre

Thanks everyone for the posts but this is the exact setup I want to use. M Squared would you please post part numbers? I'm having a hell of a time locating the correct parts.

Hi Atom!

The 1” RAM Ball Mount I chose is from Composimo Fabrications, 'cuz I preferred the silver color:
>~$13.00
>Part Number CMO_5_0400_6mm, 6mm bolt included [for a Dragster])
>Universal 1" Billet BALLMount - 6mm Bolt

The alternate / ‘official’ RAM Ball Mount is black:
>~$11.00
>Part Number RAM-B-367U, which “employs an 8mm bolt or smaller” / you’ll need to purchase a 6mm bolt for a Dragster)
>https://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-B-367U

The RAM “Universal X-Grip Holder” is available in different sizes to accommodate your device (I used their “Tablet” size:
>~$36.00
>Part Number RAM-HOL-UN8BU)
>https://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-HOL-UN8BU

A RAM tether adds a second layer of security:
>~$4.00
>Part Number RAM-HOL-UN7TU)
>https://www.rammount.com/part/RAM-HOL-UN7TU

'Hope this helps... if you'd like additional images, just let me know. Enjoy!

Yours,
M Squared
