C. The RoadKing cup holder you turned me on to has been great. I had to modify the installation a bit as Mz. Vickie's mounting technique, such as it is , didn't work with the grab bar mount design. I used an inspection plate , covered it with vinyl, some stainless nuts and bolts ( painted black ) . The only draw back here is it probably would preclude arm rest mounting. I have my eye, however, on the Hondaline pads that go over the top of the speakers. P.S. Special thank's to Rapier for the inspection plate idea as the extension.

Looks good, Maestro! I think it will be much more stable than the mount on the grab bar.

Chop, Thats a great idea. I noticed mine is beginning to turn down from the weight of a full drink on the grip handle. I may need to look into something like you have done. A simple item that works great. Ya got to love it. Good time Sunday. Hope we can do it again when Matt comes in. Ride safe

If you wanted to put arm rests on later you could put the Kuryakyn arm rests, they have a cup holder built on to it.

Fossil, speaking of arm rests, which ones do you have that trapped Ms. Janice's leg?

I have the Kury arm rests. Cup holder works, but for a water bottle, once the water volume gets down, the bottle is bounced around by wind alot. Going to see if there's a foam sleeve that will snug a bottle a bit tighter. Don't try the holder with a can of soda or juice, real messy!

If that's least one notch above a Rig -A- Tony, I'll take it. Two Wheel: Mz. Vickie likes her super size ice tea and I couldn't get the support out of the handle mount. I cured at least two issues. I hated to drill holes in the face of the plastic, but if it ever came down to taking it off ( I can't think of a reason for myself ) one could cover the two 1/4 holes with flat plastic button caps. Other possibilities for the extension plate : A piece of 1/8" black Plexiglas ........ and on and on.... Your right , budoka. Unsweetened drinks only please!
