General Discussion / Re: Iphone 5 Holder for Downtown...

Thank you. I will check them out. What are you currently using? I'm assuming you have the handlebar attachment type. For now I'm just using earbuds for the turn by turn directions while my iphone rides safely inside the glove box. It works, but would be great if I could get a quick glance at the screen from time to time. Thx.

Safe riding... 8)

General Discussion / Iphone 5 Holder for Downtown...
« on: July 19, 2013, 08:59:33 PM »
Looking for suggestions for a good iphone 5 holder for the Downtown, as I use it for my gps. Just wondering what everyone else is using. I prefer not to use a tall bulky ram mount. In my search have run acrossed this mount for nontubular handle bars at Revzilla. Does anyone have any experience with this type of mount or have any other suggestions. Trying to keep a low profile for the scoot & something that can be quickly & easily removed. Thanks in advance all!  ;)

Hey, has anyone incorporated a tunnel bag on the Downtown? I'm thinking this could be very useful. Wondering which size & brand fits the best. Ideas???

Decisions, decisions...hmmmmm. This is really tough! I love the look of the Coocase. I haven't found many reviews on them however. Everyone has come up with some great tips. I think the hardes part is deciding which size to get. Don't want anything overwhelming in size. Was the installation on the Coocase very difficult? You guys are awesome. Love seeing the photos. That really gives me a good idea on proportion. Thx  ;)

Downtown 300 / Downtown Top Case

Hello Everyone! New here on the forum, although I have been lurking for a year now.  ;) Great posts & helpful tips. I love checking in every day to see whats new. I'm from Illinois. I transitioned from motorcycles to scooters a couple of years ago. Last year as a birthday gift to myself I traded my Vespa 250 for the 2012 Downtown 300i. Must say I am loving every minute of it. No regrets here!

Ride almost daily in town, but mostly highway. Although I hate the thought of adding a top case it would be quite convenient for me. Never cared much for the looks of them. I've checked them out extensively online. Hoping someone can recommend a size that is not overwhelming on the DT. I like the looks of the Givi cases & their reputation. There are no dealers close that have cases to view. Since I have the burnt orange DT I'm thinking the flat black would look best. If anyone can post any photos of their top cases from the profile or rear view that would be helpful.  :) If there are any drawbacks of adding a top case please let me know. Looking forward to your advise.

Thanks all. Happy riding!  8)
