HERE is what I use for GPS on most of my bikes (accept my BMW which has the factory GPS mount). It replaces one of the handlebar clamp bolts.
Original poster, can you carry your bike on the front?
Me I just put the trailer on the back. Plus it gives me outdoor type space when it poring rain.

Am I wrong, but couldn't you get in the door without your modification if the bike was facing the other way? In any case, that would be a problem if the handle bars failed to lock. :)
To get the bike to face the opposite direction would entail cutting the MC carrier off of the 4' Super truss and re-welding it. Then I don't think I am skinny enough to get between the bars and camper to get to the door. :B
couldn't you go in from the driver's side if it were facing the other way?
Nope. The door doesn't open all the way flat against the camper due to the gray water valve.
or move the bike a bit further toward the driver's side?

Now I unbolt the handlebars, turn them 90 degrees and re-clamp them on the short pipe. Now I can open the TC door and miss the bars.
