I cut out an aluminum plate the size of my Escort and mounted it on the Madstrad WS bracket. That put the Escort right in my line of sight. Another option is to use a Ram X-grip and mount it where ever you want.
When I used one, I simply used a big piece of velcro on the from brake reservoir.
I've also seen others use the reservoir screws to hold an aluminum plate and velcro to that for more stability.
Used this set up for years on other bikes and now the S10. Ram mount mounted to dash plate I made. Detector is inside box hooked up to the Radar Sreamer. No issue with weather or trying to see or hear detector. Radar Screamer alerts and is very loud.
