I was tired of riding around lost and I wanted to mount my GPS on my bike. I wanted a tank bag anyway so I made one with a pocket to hold the GPS and Velcro straps to attach it to the tank lid. Maps can be placed into the lower window. The GPS will run fine on battery power for awhile but I wanted to be able to plug it into the bike so I ran a wire from the aux terminal on the fuse box to a socket that I mounted to the choke cable bracket. A corresponding plug was attached to a three way cigarette lighter splitter which lives in the tank bag and the GPS plugs into this. To remove the bag and GPS, the Velcro is undone and the plug is pulled out of the choke cable. bracket

The seat pan has been upholstered to resemble the original seat which can be seen in the background
