Great mount for many different phones check out the link for the different mounts then look at the devices you can mount. I have started using this mount on my ST so I can use Scenic for routing it works with offline maps so I may be able to use my phone instead of a dedicated GPS. The mount is solid works very well. First link is for mounts second is for the cases.

Possibly I stay with iPhone so far they have been the same size.
Like almost all mobile phones, new models are almost always a slightly different size, at least different enough to need a new case...

No doubt that both are plenty good enough for us, although I like the one-handed lock on the Quad Lock.

The TackForm line has a lot going for it. There're a several different motorcycle configurations at their site. If you already have or prefer a RAM base/arm this mount is a bargain:

It has a 1" rubber ball that's RAM compatible. There's a version complete with a bar mount and arm as well as the phone mount but the ball is 22mm (not 25.4mm for RAM compatibility). That phone isn't going anywhere.

So which mount did you end up going with? I have a 2014 and was looking at these but wasn't sure if I could get the handlebar mount to work.

Edit: Ended up going with stem mount. Will let you know how it pans out.......

So have had the stem mount for a while now. It was a bit tricky and tight getting it installed but ultimately it worked. The lock part seems to work well in terms of keeping the phone locked on. It's a bit of a pain to get it locked on or released. Usually about 30 seconds or so with the occasional f-bomb to speed the process up. The mount needs tightening every now and again to firm things up. On the whole, it's doing what I wanted and seems to be secure.
