a generally flat and elongated mounting bar having a predetermined length;

a pair of opposing “C” clamps formed in opposing ends of the mounting bar;

a fastener disposed in each “C” clamp for securely affixing the pair of “C” clamps to a respective pair of fork bolts spaced apart at a predetermined distance on the motorcycle such that the mounting bar is selectively attachable to or detachable from the motorcycle;

a mounting device for the PED, the mounting device generally extending upwardly from and perpendicular to the mounting bar and generally located in a center of the mounting bar to attach to a PED mounting bracket; and

wherein, when the mounting bar is attached to the fork bolts on the motorcycle, the mounting bar is spaced above a generally vertically-extending center bolt of a steering column on the motorcycle and at least a portion of the mounting bar extends over and at least partially covers the center bolt from above.

2. The portable electronic device (PED) mounting apparatus of claim 1 , wherein each “C” clamp includes an opening between two clamping surfaces on the “C” clamp and wherein the opening on the “C” clamp is configured to be narrowed between the two clamping surfaces by tightening the fastener, which passes through a hole on one of the clamping surfaces, and threading the fastener into a threaded hole on the opposite clamping surface to close the opening and tighten the engagement of the “C” clamp on the fork bolt; and

wherein the mounting device comprises a ball mount for attaching the PED to the mounting bar.
