It comes with a locking bolt so the unit doesn't come off of the mounting plate. From what I understand, it is the same as the GPS032, just with added security. http://www.arkon.com/accessories/phone_bike_mount.html

Here is what you need. Put one one my C50 and one on the wifes 40. Works great.

That is the exact same one I just found after wading through tons of search results! It looks decent and is cheap. You are using them without issue. I guess I will be ordering one. Thanks a bunch!

I have used mine for 4000 miles now and have had no problems yet.

The one I posted has the screw on the bottom. I would post a pic of it but it is on the bike and I am to lazy to go out there. Well that and it is raining.

Well, good price on the GPS032...

http://www.buy.com/pr/product.aspx?sku=217605652&sellerid=23860035

I found a review on Amazon of the SM032 mentioned earlier in the thread and the guy didn't like the security mechanism much at all. Here's part of the review...

Quote:

Not enough plastic around the nut that allows tightening of the screw that secures the holder to the handlebar swivel makes this piece to be likely to break quickly(as in my case) due to tightening or repeated use.

I'll probably go for a magnetic version that sticks to the tank, similar to one of these...

Savage_Rob, I read those reviews. I believe that you are not to keep removing it. It is a once and done deal. Just slip the device from the case at the end of the ride. However, the case and mount can be an eyesore if you don't want to use it that day. I never considered a magnetic one. That is very interesting. Thanks.

And I don't purchase from Buy.com any longer. I don't like when American companies sell to the Japanese, or any other country.

A leather version of the magnetic...

I've never had any problems with Buy.com. In fact, I've had very good experiences with them, especially when I've had to return an item. In each instance they provided a prepaid printable shipping label (I don't recall whether it was FedEx or UPS). In one case, I wanted a replacement, which they preshipped. In the other I wanted a refund, which was done as soon as the returned item was received.

If I want to remove the case I just unscrew it from the mount, then there is just the handle bar mount. I have never removed the screw as I put a little locktite on it so it did not self remove.
