It's one of those laws that, like going 2 mph over the speed limit, doesn't seem to raise the ire of California LEO's. I've never heard of anybody getting a ticket for mounting their GPS (or their radar detector, or their notepad, or anything else) in the relatively conventional position of the bottom center of the windshield.

The windshield isnt really in our direct view of the road ahead. Not all motorcycle have a windshield either.
This wouldnt hold up in court. They might be able to knock those that have a device obstructing the view of the instrument cluster.
