Handlebar Mount on a GP Headset

Shot in the dark I know, but I'm looking to mount my phone to the headset of my GP, but the only things I'm finding are handlebar mounts.

Anyone got any ideas?

If you have a Disk brake with a mirror mount on the master cylinder you could use that. Its how I fit my sat nav

Not sure how I'd do that.

Here's a picture or the mount....

I had one of those kits for an iphone with a special bracket that fitted to the hydraulic chamber mount

I made a small plate and attached it to the 2 screws that secure the throttle mount/switch housing. I bent the plate round and to the left of the light switch and fettled the mout part to fit to the plate. Your mount is slightly different to mine but I'm sure yopu could do something similar. Unfortunately I don't seem to have a picture of it :oops:

Cheers. I have a Speedo on the switch mount. What's the thread size of the mirror mount? That seems the best way to go

I think this idea but with a bit of bar welded on might work. :?
