Troubleshooting

If you encounter issues with your xitomer GPS Bracket, refer to the following common problems and solutions:

• Bracket Feels Loose After Installation:

  Solution: Re-check all mounting screws and bolts. Ensure they are tightened to the appropriate torque. Vibrations during riding can sometimes cause fasteners to loosen. If the issue persists, inspect the mounting points on your motorcycle for any wear or damage.

• GPS Device/Phone Mount Does Not Fit:

  Solution: Verify that your GPS device or phone mount uses a compatible AMPs hole pattern or a two-ball system. This bracket is designed for these specific mounting types. If your device uses a different system, an adapter may be required (not included).

• Windshield Interference:

  Solution: In some cases, certain GPS units or their mounts may interfere with the full range of motion of an adjustable windshield. If this occurs, assess if a slight adjustment to the GPS unit's position on the bracket is possible, or if the interference is minimal and does not impede safe operation. Some users have reported minor modifications to the bracket or windshield may be necessary for full windshield travel with specific large GPS units.

• Bracket Appears Twisted or Misaligned:

  Solution: During installation, ensure the bracket is properly aligned before tightening all fasteners. If it appears twisted, loosen the fasteners, re-align the bracket, and then re-tighten them evenly. Ensure no cables or other components are obstructing its proper seating.
