Mounting a sat nav system

Having been helped out on this site before I thought I'd come back for some more advice!

I have bought a Garmin Quest Sat Nav and I want to mount it on the bike. The best place to locate it would be above the top yoke.

There is a kit from Garmin with all the wiring etc. but this still requires mounting to the bike. Most people suggest a Ram mount but these all seem to require clamping around the handle bars which seem very crowded and will probably foul the fairing anyway.

Touratech do a great lockable vibration softening bracket for it, however I can't find anyone who sells an appropriate way of mounting the bracket on the bike (most of their stuff is really for BMW GS's with tubular bars).

The official Ducati system appears to mount the way I want mine to and so does the Triumph accesory for the Sprint but neither of my local dealers have ever fitted or even stocked one so the're not exactly helpfull. Both of these systems are older spec models than the Quest so the actual brackets probably won't fit.

Anyone got any solutions?
