Anyone out there that have mounted a Carpuride 702 Pro on the ST1300?

Yep I just did over the winter. I mounted it to my dash shelf, not sure my pics would help if you don't have a dash shelf....do you?

Picking where you want it will be the first step, looks like a standard ram ball, so you can mount it anywhere a ram mount fits. I would lean towards the dash shelf. Looks like a nice piece, will follow for your feedback.
I don't have a Carpuride but I have one that's close to it.
I mounted it to the Ram ball mount on my riser. It's plenty bright during the day and dim enough during the night that it doesn't distract me when I ride and it's out of the way of almost everything. I do have to reach over it to turn my key but I'm used to that since it's in the same place my phone mount was for the last few years.
I don't like things in my direct line of sight when I ride which it's mounted low.
It's only been on a month or so, so I don't have the wire routing completely figured out yet.

Has anyone had experience with Podofo or any others? Are any of the brands any better than the others? Was thinking about buying one for my ST and wanted to weigh in on the collective’s experience and opinions here.

I cant comment on the Podofo as I have never heard of it before now. I have the Innovv N1 Pro and can say that it works great. It works really well with gloves, which was a surprise and I have run in days of rain and it works fine when wet, with no touchscreen wierdness. Im impressed with how well it works. As far as mounting, I have always mounted devices as @JackinFL has shown and it is easy and works well. I will add that if you get the right length of ram "arm" you can raise the device up to bring it closer to gauge level so you dont have to look down as far as with a short arm. It Also allows you to use a bigger screen, as the bars are wider as you go higher.

Never saw this before- Neat package.
They state that video from the cameras can be displayed in real time. That would mean that you could use it as a rear view mirror. Ever try it?

No, never thought to try it. I will when the weather gets better.
I wish I would have seen this before I got my display. It would take the place of my Innovv K3 cameras, my Sykik TPMS and my Android Auto display....
