Quad Lock Motorcycle Phone Mount Vibration Dampener, USB Charger, and Wireless Charging Head Install
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ก.ค. 2024
- Today my Suzuki DRZ400S and my Honda Grom are getting significant phone mount upgrades. I'm adding the Quad Lock mount, vibration dampener, and wireless weatherproof charging head to my DRZ, and the Grom is getting hooked up with the Quad Lock mount, Quad Lock vibration dampener, and the Quad Lock USB charger. I'll walk you through the process of installing all of these great motorcycle phone mount options in this video, from adding the vibration dampener to the existing mount, to adding a charger (either USB or wireless) on top, and finally mounting my phone and plugging it in (or not, with the wireless charger) to make sure it's all hooked up correctly. Don't worry about damaging your camera's phone due to the motorcycle vibrations. With the Quad Lock dampener, your phones autofocus and stabilization should be just fine. The Quad Lock install is a simple process, and I'll walk you through the whole thing from start to finish in this video.
GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED! Thank you to everyone who entered!

QuadLock is truly the best. Been using my setup for almost 2 years now on my V85TT. (Great video Dork)
Thanks for the video, installed it all by just watching your video.
I hit like before I even watched the video because of the Excite Bike intro! Brings back memories man.
This video is a MUST SEE for anyone who is considering on buying a quad lock system.
When I first read about the vibration dampener i thought "This is just for the people who do off-road and that stuff" untill I read that the optical system of your phone may get damaged from the vibration of the motorbike. I think this is something that not so many people know about and it's quite important to take care of it.
They've worked flawlessly for me so far
your iphone camera could be destroyed if you dont use a vibration dampener
Tuned it to find out what mount you used since the quad lock handlebar mount doesn’t work on the DRZ with stock bars and you glossed right over that part!!!
I absolutely LOVE my quad lock system! I will not put any other mount on my bikes. Great video discussing the system!
It's a really great setup!
It's like you're in my head! LOL I've got the same mount on the DRZ and the 1290. Love it.
Great minds think alike!
I know video is a year old but I haven’t heard Pokémon go in years lol thx for the video i ordered mine last week after i saw this video I can’t wait to install it on my bike ! Is getting delivered tomorrow
Thanks for the review.
Awesome vid bud
Wow, thanks for this, exactly what I need.
Glad it was helpful!
Definitely getting a Quad Lock soon... my old iPhone's camera died and I didn't know why until I found out that my Rokform didn't have any vibration dampening
PokemonGo & Quad-lock
very cool lol
thanks for the vid
great job !!
I like the wireless charging ability 👍🏻
It's pretty slick
"Dork in the Road" that is an EPIC channel name 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I've had the Quad Lock system for a few years on my 2012 Goldwing. I bought the wired charger with it (this was before they came out with the wireless charger). For the first week it was great, but then it couldn't seem to keep up for some reason. I reached out to Quad Lock, and they sent me a replacement. Unfortunately the replacement didn't fair much better. For the first few weeks it charged my phone just fine, but then for some reason it couldn't keep up, even with my screen turned off. Hopefully yours faired better.
I just replaced the charger out with the wireless charger last weekend. Other than a quick test to make sure it worked, I haven't had a chance to take it out on the road yet. Hopefully it fairs better than the wired version for me.
I was also concerned about not having a fuse, but this I found on their website”The USB charger has an inbuilt self-healing Polyfuse and Surge Protection. It also has Polarity Protection which prevents damage to the charger if wired up incorrectly.”
Thank you!
Do you have a video on how to install the charger “properly” to switch power and all that? I just got a KTM rc390 and have been looking into the quad lock setup with the charger.
I love my quad lock on my CRF 250l rally
Phone Condom! LMAO!!!! Great Info Dork! I just ordered one.
I mean... It's kinda true 😁
Bro you got a subscriber man! Pokémon Go!
I literally order that exact kit an hour ago lol
I mountain bike.. do you think this setup would work for short videos?
Do you notice a difference on video stability?
I’m never tried any quad lock.
This video will save my iphone.
So you used the USB power module, instead of the weatherproof wireless charger ? That's prob my problem on my Tiger Rally Pro......that and the too thin or too thick handlebars having all kinds of issues mounting my quadlock/antivibration/weatherproof wirelss. Perhaps I just need that USB power one like you're using.....
What size Ram Mount double socket arm are you using large or medium for your drz400s?
"As you can tell I'm intimately familiar with these fairings. [Getting] every one of them off..." sicko
What 12v usb charger setup are you using on the drz for this quadlock?
I want the wireless setup for my ATV. Think the ball mount with RAM Mount is the best handlebar setup?
Can you fit the small dual pivot on to the flat 4 hole rectangle and how?
Have you ever charged you phone when is was low with the charging setup? And if, then how long does it take to fully charge the phone?
What charger do you have to feed the quad that doesn't frain your battery, and what's the setup?
When i try to put vibration dampener and screw the last part on, all the rubbers from vibration dampener come out, i put them back in but something continues to push them out and idk how to fix it 😭
Quad Lock RULZ!
How bad was the vibration on the Versys 650?
In my opinion, Quadlock really messed up by not having the cable hard wire into the unit. The plug option is just another annoying place that can rattle loose. I would get one if this wasn't the case!
I love the concept of the quad lock. I just don't like that it is tied to a specific case for specific phones. I wish they had a universal attachment that I could just stick on any phone. I'm an avid off roader (currently on a YZ250F) and looking for a good mount for a Phone based GPS.
They have a universal mount
But your phone is waterproof already. I consider the charger but thinks its very big. What are your toughts?
Is there two ways to charge phone on the mount?
Great video! Any updates on how well the dampener is performing to prevent damage to your phone?
So far, so good.
so it’s been 2 months… how’s your camera now?
Isn't there a power button on the wired version?
I like the concept and ordered the case and RAM mount! We tried the wired charger like you have on the Grom and the charger died shortly after. Interested to hear how it works for you before I spend a bunch on the wireless charger and vibration dampener.
I hope to test them extensively
My ball mount and the dampener is not sturdy i can even rotate the phone 360 degrees, why?
Am I missing something? If you have the usb port so close, couldn’t you just charge your phone from there instead of buying the quad lock charger?
It went together easily in less than an hour. th-cam.com/users/postUgkxHL1v1R3NE5x4KiYfyt8dnQmyNYz7qi5L Make sure the front fork is forward or the pedals will hit the front tire. Tires are both a little soft so it needs air before I ride it. The rear wheel didn't come with a clamp regular bolts hold it on. The front had the clamp. No scratches out of box. Rims are a little off with a slight wobble. They could have spent more time with the spoke tool fixing the run out. So far out of the box I'm happy with it. I did replace the pedals with a nice aftermarket set. After riding it a bit my A$$ is a bit sore so I ordered another seat. Overall I'm nearly 60 and didn't ride a bike in 30 years. I like my new 29" Schwinn. It will be used for casual rides with my friend.
I’ve had to replace my iPhone 12 twice within two months because of the vibrations, so while I am mildly desperate to find a solution as I love being able to easily see my phone for navigation, I’m also super paranoid now.
This is a big reason I returned the RokForm kit I had purchased before ever using it. That said, I've been using the QuadLock system for a few months now, and zero issues with my 12 Pro Max.
I just ordered a Quad Lock set up and waiting for it to arrive. What I don't get at all is the charging wire set up. If you have a charging unit already on the bike, you can simply run the wire up to the phone when mounted. Why plug a wire to the phone mount when you can just run it to your phone? Pretty weird lol
Saves time + is weatherproof...although if it's raining I don't usually have my phone on the bars anyway.
Passive vs active charging, I guess. It's super convenient but not necessary, for sure.
Carry on my wayward
Might be a stupid question, but can the quadlock hold the phone in landscape position? I only ever see it in portrait orientation
Yes. You just put it in sideways.
Hey quick question do I need to plug it in the bike or can I just charge it at home and turn it on when I need it and go ?
It needs to be plugged in
May I ask where is the power source for charging your phone? From the bike Battery or from where? I totally no idea
I ran a cable to the battery. You can see it in this video.
Hey neat they have a slick usb. Replace the screw with a longer one to fit a stack of usb outlets🤭My S9 is waterproof😋
My S21 is supposedly waterproof too but I've had enough trouble with wet charging ports on phones in the past so I don't mess around with water where I can avoid it
Fair enough. The old tough phones were truly waterproof. There's some still but you need a trailer to haul them around.
How'd you get a black mount? I've only seen the Blue.
They sell different color replacement tabs on their website
Keyword is super fast charging?
NOT being a wise guy....but.....is this hook up how you broke your USB socket on the bike? I just want to know before I do the exact same thing.....with my KLR ! I just got this set up! Thanks
No. I've got this plugged into the 12v port with a USB adapter.
@@DorkintheRoad Thanks !
I feel totally dumb as I’m having the hardest time taking it off the wireless charger. What’s the trick?… on the other ones it’s a tab. Easy. But on the wireless there’s no tab and I always end up having to do some finger origami with both hands to finally get it off.
Push down on the outside ring
Pretty nifty not having to connect the phone to a cable.
did the grom battery end up getting drained?
Nothing too noticeable.
The dampener will help if you have a good suspension, on my Goldwing and Supertenere I have no problems but my son and I have ruin our cameras on our Gsxs1000 and 750, because of the sportier ride, 2 of my sons friends have screwed up the stabilizer on their phones on a ninja 650 and mt09 so on sport bikes on our shitty roads in Quebec it does not protect the phone enough, smooth riding bikes should be fine
Even with a dampener installed it ruined ur phones?
OK how the h*** can you have a waterproof plug plug not hardwired. Please answer me how water stays out of the plug why the h*** didn't they hardwire it
Try it Harley davidson fatboy, still my new iphone camera was damage
just my luck... i installed one the other day without the vibration dampener and killed the camera on my phone.... i didnt read the fine print!
Yeah I hear that's a common issue
My camera is also dead.,..
what kind of bikes / motors are killing the cameras? My DRZ SHHHHHHAKES, while my BMW is pretty smooth. Sucks to hear.
Can you have the phone horizontally??
Yes
So I'm just trying to wrap my head around why a wireless charger we need to be plugged into the phone, it seems kind of ridiculous and quite defective
It doesn't. He showed two separate products, a USB and a wireless charger.
Yup. Two different products in this video. The wireless charger is working flawlessly for me so far.
That not true about rain poncho. It's gets water behind. I already damage one phone. Just put it in your pocket if it's raining
Hi, you did it in wrong way. The dsmpener should be installed as close to the phone as possible.
How is the wireless charging supposed to work through the dampener?
@@bdawson21 Wireless charging should go on top of the dampener but the USB charger should be beneath the dampener. I think that is what he meant.
My charge head just died last week out of nowhere.
Dang, that sucks. Still under warranty?
@@DorkintheRoad I sent them an email. Fingers crossed. For now I'm back to my standard QL.
@@betweenthebennyandme May be a stupid question, but you did check the button on the back of the charging head? I thought mine had died two days after I installed it. Turns out I hit the button that, since I didn't read the instructions, I didn't know was there.
@@r1dutch yeah. Its constantly blinking a light blue light
"I have to reset the clock again" man I hate those first world problems....
100 percent a first world problem
Quad lock charger sucks it only chargers at 10 watts
Damper. Not dampener
Whatever happened to planning and knowing ahead of time where you were going before leaving to drive somewhere? Geez. What happened to doing anything without a phone? Can't wait for the toilet mount to launch. That way I can watch Game of Thrones whilst on my bathroom throne downloading some "defecatory data." Or the new silverware app so I can eat with my phone. Turn off the phone. Enjoy the ride and the view it provides. Got 32 cents of my 2 cents worth. I feel better now.
Old dude without an “insta”... 🤷🏼♂️
Quad Lock Vibration Dampener does not work. Don’t waste your money. To see what happens to an iPhone 8 after one season on a Quad Lock Vibration Dampener check out the video on my page. This phone was mounted on a Tenere 700 - not a high vibration motorcycle. Fortunately, I only use this phone as a dedicated GPS. I won't be mounting my iPhone 12 to it - ever.
Literally no issues in 4 years with mine.
