I've heard it said it's kind of like an erector setfor adults, and that's not far off. Ram makes hundreds of different pieces and you pick and choose the ones you want to create your own mounting system. They make many things exclusively for the motorcycle community, such as many different ways to mount to handlebars. Because my scooter doesn't have the traditional motorcycle handlebarr, I had to get creative with what I put together. Luckily I have a windshiled on my scooter otherwise I would have had to mount to the mirror stem, either way the Ram mount required a shim provided by Ram mount as well as a shim provided by me.
I was hoping the shim from Ram mount would be enough but the diameter of the windshield bracket is too small. I am still working on a good shim to fill the extra space. I chose to purchase the small aquabox as it has virtually the same dimensions as my phone. I am probably going to regret not buying the next size up (the medium aquabox). The flexlens plastic screen allows you to control the touch screen on the phone which is nice but in order to make it waterproof the lid compresses onto the flexlens and as you can see in the next picture it forces the sides inward and my fingers can't reach the outer edges of the screen. All the pieces from Ram mount are hight quality, you can tell that they have been doing this for a while.
The aquabox can be locked with a small padlock, and you can even buy a lock so you can't take the mount apart without a key. Beause the mount I have has a u-bolt mounted to the windshiled bracket, you could simply unbolt the whole mount if you were really determined to steal it. I bought the short arm which is just the right size for the buddy, I believe the regular arm would have been too long.
You can see everything mounted to the bike in the next two pictures. In the first I am having to hold the mount in position as it is not properlt shimmed yet. When I get it all tightened up I'll take it for a test drive, and as always I'll report back here with my opinions.
