Does anyone have a good set up for mounting a power supply and gps on the Hawk handlebar? I am going to use a Garmin2555 GPS. I also have an old Nuvi Mio. Thanks for all your help China Riders!

Tire clearance

Will the Shinko 244 4.60-18 clear the chain on the Hawk? I see the stock knobby is very close.
