don't really have time to work on this yet but here's what I have planned(probably sometime in November when there's a day off/holiday). Planning on mounting an old garmin gps with 12v socket on the bike instead. As smart phones getting more and more useful/fancy/multifunction I would hate to lose it from riding. I would have to spend 150 to have my moto x screen replaced. Just not a good idea to put my phone out in danger(no matter how stable the mount is, it'd be gone if I crash).
just saw this went on sale on slickdeals if anyone interested
55LM($70) + 12v socket($8 in ebay) + motorcycle mount($10)
here's some link if anyone interested

Basically no tools needed(toolkit has them all if you insist, maybe few bucks on wiretie/tape) <$100 total for a dedicate GPS for the bike
I'm not handy when it comes to DIY but if i think I can do this, this should be within anyone's ability
