Velcro works great!

 

i have one of the armband ipod holders used for running or exercising, i just wrap it around my barefoot ******* drink holder, holds tight and comes off easy

 

I have a generation 4 iPod Shuffle (no longer made) with an aftermarket pushbutton control I mount to my left side handlebar with wrapped velcro. Works great. Here's some pictures.

 

This is my temporary mount. I haven't decided what else to use, but these Velcro zips ties work pretty well. Been using for over a year now

 

Thanks guys for ya great ideas....
I'm going to get some high end velcro & try the dash idea if ya never seen a Nano its very tiny only 1 1/2 inches X 1 1/2

Ride Safe & Long...

 

I ran a long input/auxillary cable under the tank panel. Comes out at front of seat an used small piece of velcro right there above the seat. Not noticeable and you can adjust/use control without issue.

 

Hey Everyone thanks for your Ideas.
I just got the industrial grade of velcro & put it on the 2 dummy plugs on the left side of the dash.

Works perfect will post pics when I get my camera away from the girlfriend...

I have an 09 Street Glide. I made one for my right handle bar. I went to Home Depot and bought a small piece of galvanized (sp) metal. About 1" x 3". I primed it and painted it black to match my bike. I then drilled 4 holes in it. Two to go on top of the handle bar and 2 below. I used two small zip ties to strap it to the bar. I then bought black heavy duty velcro and cut it to fit this strip. The other small strip of velcro on the back of my iPod Nano. I ran a black aux wirre down the handle bar in back and up through the fariing from the forks. The aux wire stays plugged in to the aux stereo port.

I'm sorry I don't have a pic to post. You barely even notice this is on the bike. And with the Nano on the bike, you can't even see the mount. I don't worry about a power outlet for it becaue it'll play for something like 24 hours. I just charge it at night if on a trip.

I don't like alot of those big old gadgets that guys sell lie ram mounts etc. This you hardly notice and when the iPod is one the bike, it's invisible.

I can just use my right hand to switch songs.
I could send you pics if you're interested.

 

Just a note.. if you use this, make sure you also keep the small pad that comes w/ it between the ipod and the tank (inside the pouch, but underneath the ipod).. I took mine out as I have a iFrog on my iphone... issue is that I kept getting the "overheated" msg on my iphone (I do live in Phoenix, so that definitely adds to the issue)...
