Probably not the solution you're looking for but they do sell some smaller tank bags with cell phone pockets on the top for the purpose of using it for a GPS. I know you're looking for a mount of some sort but that's all the info I have. :/
Nice reservoirs btw. Looks more high tech lol

Thanks Busakiller! I do have one with a map pocket I could put the cell phone in but I wanna be able to stop take my glove off and use the cell phone. I'm tired of having to open that pocket and take the cell phone out since I'm not able to use the touch screen. Also because of the position of the tank bag I'm unable to read the screen (sun glare). I guess I would probably have to buy something and get somebody with access to a decent shop to build a mount that would work. That or I bet a go pro sticky and the male attached to the cell phone mount/case could do the trick!

Oh I see, well what about (I know this is going to sound like a crappy way to do it) getting one of the ones made for a car and screwing or bolting the base of it the little left/right side cover piece? I believe those are the air duct covers? A friend of mine has done something similar and it actually didn't look too bad. He drilled the holes and everything to make it look a little more "professional". just a suggestion. Idk how else to help lol

nah that's good solution! I'm going to end up doing that or drill through the phone mount, attach the GOPRO accessory and put a sticky somewhere! There aren't too many ways to go about it. Thanks for the suggestions!

Hey Drag, this is a bracket I made for my radar detector, I'm sure you could use something like this for your phone. There's a threaded hole already there that I used to fasten it.
