I recently bought a Zumo XT2 satnav and decided to also invest in a Raw-Rides steering column mount. From the moment I unpacked it I could tell it was a quality piece of kit. It’s obvious that a lot of thought and development has gone into its design and it seems to be considerately stronger and stiffer than the original cowl.

Fitting couldn’t be easier as it uses the same mounting points as the original cowl. My only tip would be to fix the small screw on the back of the right hand side (behind the key barrel cover) first as I found this to be the most fiddly to get into position. Once this is done, the rest of the screws line up easily.

It was necessary to remove the front scuttle (under the ‘bonnet’) in order to connect the satnav power cable but this was straightforward.

I needn’t have worried that the Zumo XT2 has a slightly larger screen than the XT (for which this product was originally designed) as it still ends up in the perfect position, with the whole screen (save for the very top corners) being clearly visible when driving. Even though the M3W doesn’t offer the smoothest of rides (!) the satnav is held rock-solid. It's reassuring to have the display right in front of you, especially the GPS speedo and current speed limit displays.

The first real test for this kit was the Goggles & Gauntlets event on the Isle of Wight and I'm pleased to report that it worked perfectly. All in all, I am delighted with this mount and would thoroughly recommend it. Check it out on the Raw-Rides website HERE. (I have no affiliation with Raw-Rides by the way - other than being a satisfied customer etc. etc.)

Note: Even though it's designed to accept the Garmin mount, I did check and it’s just as compatible with my TomTom Rider 500 mount which has the same hardware spacing.
