Jason F.: Works great and has a minimal footprint when not in use.

Peter: Light weight but so far so good. Had it for year half.

Ander: Compre este kit "RAM Mount RAM-B-272 Kit de Montaje - Kit de sujección" junto con
"Ram Mount Rap-B-201U Kit de Montaje - Kit de Sujección" y
"AM Mount RAM-HOL-UN7B - Soporte móvil"

Lo compre por falta de lugar en el manillar de la moto para poner un accesorio para sujetar el móvil. Con esto me lo ha solucionado completamente el problema, la bola inferior la tengo sujeta con el mismo tornillo que sujeta la pantalla. Con los otros kits puedo acomodarlo para tener el móvil encima de la pantalla de información de la moto.
PROS:
➡️Fácil de montar
➡️Se agarra como si fuese cemento aun alcanzando velocidades muy altas
➡️El kit del móvil tiene una goma para poder engancharlo mas aun al enganche del móvil aunque no es necesario pero siempre viene bien esa seguridad extra.

CONTRA:
➡️Por poner pega, le pondría que la casa RAM no tiene un enganche para el móvil con funda para poder protegerlo de la lluvia con este sistema.
➡️Es obvio pero si queréis grabar con el móvil en la moto con este enganche... es prácticamente imposible obviamente, las vibraciones de la moto hace que tiemble la cámara y se vea mal.

Konrad Pieper: Wie alle Motorrad oder GoPro Zubehörteile ist auch das hier ganz klar overpriced.
Aber es macht genau was es soll.
Scheint stabil zu sein, wobei ich es an meiner Strassenmaschine habe. Bis Tempo 160 gab es kein Problem mit der GoPro an einem 15 cm Stil. Zu Offroad kann ich nichts sagen.
Der beschriebene Lackschaden war auch bei mir da. Es ist Aluminium also rostet da nichts und wenn es stört hilf etwas Edding.
Ich bin zufrieden damit. War die einzige Möglichkeit noch eine weitere Halterung an den Lenker zu bekommen.

johnny nelsonjohnny nelson: as seen in the pictures this is a brand new unopened package however it seems there are gouges taken out of the coating for the mount. This is unaestheticly pleasing especially if i'm mounting this to a motorcycle which is kept in pristine condition. The issue seems to be a manufacturing issue from RAM and not the seller repacking used units. Below is the reply from RAM mount through the seller.

"Thank you for the photos. I am sorry if the appearance of the ball base was not to your expectations but I would like to comment that this appears to part of our normal manufacturing process. The area on the post between the ball and the base cannot be fully painted. High injection pressures are required to inject the rubber material and there needs to be a tight seal against the post to inject the rubber ball, which leaves the post with scratches, and where the powder coat simply cannot withstand that; thus leaving an unpainted post. The bases are made of a 369.1 Marine Grade Aluminum Ingot and you should encounter no issues with weather affecting the base. RAM Mounts come with a Lifetime Warranty so if you ever have an issue with the bases, other than cosmetic, please reach out...

Gabby: This is the only RAM mount that will work for a scooter if your reservoir is not exposed and you do not have open handlebars like most scooters. I attach this particular mount to one of my mirrors and just use the other rim attachments so that I cannot hold my phone without needing to have it in my hand. So far it has been a great mount and hasn't messed up my phone by dropping it or moving around too much. So if you have a scooter and you're looking for a mount to use you need to buy this one because it's pretty much the only one that will work. But I have to say the only downside with the ram mounts is how much they cost it's pretty crazy but I guess you're paying for the idea of not having your phone messed up.

Derek Rowe: In my opinion, this is the best way to mount your phone using a RAM mount on a sport bike. I have previously used the RAM fork stem mount, and that works well enough, but this is better! Here's a nifty little comparison chart:

This mount:
$11.50 (Current Amazon price)
Totally secure base for the RAM phone mount
Can be mounted on upper fork triple tree clamp, clip-ons, or other handle bar spots if available (needs to have 9mm or smaller screw, probably should be at least 6mm thick).
Because of mounting options, your phone can be easily mounted slightly to the side, allowing you to still see your gauges.

Fork stem mount:
$15.50 (Current Amazon price)
Can only mount in center fork stem
Mount starts to spin easily after only a few hours of use (experiences may vary, this happened to me, I have a 21mm ID fork stem)
Cell phone will inevitably be near the center of the handlebars, likely blocking your gauges or some part of them.

Overall conclusions:
This mount is cheaper, more versatile, and sturdier! I highly recommend it. I own a Honda CBR600F4i with Gilles Tooling clip ons. Because these clip-ons don't have an exposed tightening screw,...

JoeyNickJoeyNick: I mostly like this mount but it doesn't always fit.

Not knowing how well this component would fit, I also bought the RAM Brake / Clutch Reservoir Base  Ram Mount Motorcycle Brake/Clutch Reservoir Base with 1-Inch Ball  and I'm glad I did. This mount did not fit on my mirror next to the brake reservoir. Well, technically it did fit but there wasn't enough clearance to get a wrench on the nut to tighten it down appropriately. On the non reservoir side, the mount fits nicely on my mirror mount. Now, I have mounts on both sides, just of different types!

The picture on the right side of the handlebar shows the nice fit.

I have included the picture of this mount on the non fitting left side handlebar, next to the brake reservoir. It looks like it fits but I was unable to tighten the mirror bolt due to lack of clearance with the mount attached.
