Alterative mounts for TomTom VIO?

Posts: 6 [Master Explorer]
Since I have no mirror bar and want to put my VIO away from my handlebar (hence not use the standard mounts) i am looking for alternatives. I can surely play around and make my own, but would like to know if anyone have found alternative mounts for the VIO?

I have a Honda ST1100. I bought a 50 mm long and 5mm thick bolt (think that is the right english word?) and a pice of aluminium pipe with a 6 mm hole. Imagine that the pipe acts a long og very thick washer - then removed a bolt that holds the windscreen and use the bolt with the small pice of pipe instead. Hence you have a 50mm pipe securely fastened and usable for mounting the VIO.
Hi to everybody.
I have the same problem because I have a V-Strom DL650 2013.
I was looking for a bar with a diameter of 10-12 mm to install it near the windshield and then I would have installed there the Vio's support.
Unfortunately the only bar I found searching in the web has a diameter of 22 mm and I couldn't put there the "little" support of Vio.
Your solution looks very interesting for me, but I don't understand very well. What should I do to mount Vio's support to the pin of the ram ball? Can you send me some pictures?
