Default Some IPod Help Mounting.

I went and bought some external speakers for my little mp3 player. So, now I am trying to figure out how to mount them. They go pretty loud. With the bike running, I can sit in my car, with it running, and the windows up, and still here it!! It goes pretty loud... I know I can just carry it in the tank bag... But I was wanting to mount it on the bike somewhere. But not a permanenet mount.. Something like velcro, or something. I can't seem to settle on where I want to put it, and how to attach it. If the weather gets bad, I need to take it off. Also to change the batteries in it.

So, here are a couple of pics..... What do yall think. I need some ideas. I know the bike is dirty. I have not cleaned it since yesterdays ride in the rain!! lol

The back of the speakers does fold up and down, but that does not seem to help me....lol

Perfect !!! Thanx Gr, the link you gave me went to a different link to www.expressmounts.com and they have the perfect mount for 20 bucks.... It is ordered and on the way...

NS, the link you had, looks like a killer mount, but I have that cover that covers the nut... I could take the cover off, but then it would just not look right...ya know... Thanx tho bro. I guess I did not realize all the different mounts made for bikes. Hell, I guess I could have googled it!! lol

Love the pic!! yes yes....

Going to Carlsbad this Saturday. That bat flight is killer. The wife hates bats!! lol lol...Should be interesting.

I looked at the blue tooth adapters... I was not sure tho'. I am not the most technologically inclined individual. I might have to try one out. Do they work well. They don't cut out, battery lasts a while?

Thanx for all the info guys!!

lol..... blah blah blah....ha ha ha ha..... We are going this Saturday. It's only about 110 miles south to the caves. So, we will saddle up early, around 4 or 5 in the morn, miss the heat of the day.. There in White's city, they have 30 ifferent kinds of homemade fudge. I spent my fair share of time in there!! lol... I always leave with a belly ache..

In the caves, they have the main entrance, that you walk down. It goes down 70 stories, and is guided. they also have intermidate and expert caves. Where you actually have to grapple, and use rope, climb walls, and pretty much explore. It is pretty dang cool. The last time I went down, we were on the expert cave, and that kicked my butt man. I was wore out by the time we were done!! lol

We will stay for the day, then ride back that afternoon... As soon as I get rid of my stomach ache anyway, lol lol lol....
