without knowing what kind of mount system is on the unit I'm not sure if this will work. Maybe to can modify it to work. http://www.stemstand.com/

Linky doesn't work.
Good save.

You'll probably want to buy a mount for the GPS itself as well. Using the sandbag probably isn't going to work.
A good deal is the Garmin motorcycle mount which comes with a hardwire adapter cable. Then you can take that and mount it to the stem stand. Then the unit locks into the mount with a tool that's provided.
I would be curious too see if you can get the 2620 to work on the Busa. I couldn't. The hard drive kept crapping out anytime I got over 4K RPMs. It couldn't handle the vibration. A lot of other bikers have reported this probelm as well. You may end up having to get a 2610. The standard CF memory doesn't have these problems.

I had heard the same about the 2620 and motorcycles, so I ended up going with a Garmin Quest because of the lack of hard drive. I have successfully used it on my VFR for the last week, but I am now looking for a Busa mounting solution. The VFR was easy - right up under the windshield. But the Busa will be a bit tougher because of the lack of space between the windwhield and the instrument visibility. Thus far it is looking like a stem mount.You'll probably want to buy a mount for the GPS itself as well. Using the sandbag probably isn't going to work.

Nice....where did you get the ball/mount for the stem like that (do you know the part number?). I have the ball/socket arm that pivots around, and I have the cradle, but no way to actually mount it to the bike. I was a dumbass and ordered the handlebar clamp without thinking, then realized there was nowhere for it to fit. At least I can use it on my 4 wheeler, but now I need the hardware to mount my arm/cradle to the Busa.
Just noticed these ( http://www.cyclegadgets.com/Product....RAM-PP3 ) Would the Ram small or ram tiny fit into the threads on the stem?

here is the actual site that i got the mount from. sorry for the wrong one before. somewhere in thier site is the mount for the Hayabusa. It is just a 1/4 inch all thread rod that goes all the way through the triple tree and has a nut on the bottom side and the all thread threads into the ball socket. check this site out and I am pretty sure that is where I got it from.

here is the page with the part number on it. If you call them they can get the right part for you.
