Drink holder

Take a look at http://www.kuryakyn.com/products/4296/glove-box-cubby

I really like having my coffee cup close at hand and this works perfect.

Like my lockable cubby to much.

I have one, think I would rather look "old" than wear one of those.

No one would see mine.
I would wear it under a shirt or light jacket.

Not to be a buzz kill on this thread but drinking anything and riding a motorcycle at the same time seems way too dangerous to me. Being thirsty while riding is just a good excuse to pull over, stretch your legs and enjoy your beverage. I'm a little surprised that it's not considered distracted driving by law enforcement.

I am considering this one, even though not Dot approved, don't wear a helmet anyway, you could put a couple of energy drinks in their and if it weren't for those pesky piss/gas stops, you could ride on forever.

Chop,
tried that one already.
Once I got moving the drinks kept spraying my wife in the wind when it came out of the top of the can.

This can also be true when you are driving a car/truck while drinking something,smoking,reaching for something,eating and driving,talking even when you are doing it through a Bluetooth system,etc.
Distracted driving no matter what vehicle is distracted driving.

Been looking at drink holders for the upcoming trip, could not find a past post w/a consensus. Lots on the Goldwing board like the Butler ,plastic,black w/the (2) sizes of cups, but have issues w/the mount breaking.
I like the looks of the Kuryakyn stainless drink holder w/chrome mount. Any others to consider ? Thanks in advance.

Your not supposed to be drinkin and drivin anyway

For the drink holder I use the one Ram makes. I use a touch lighter when I am going down the interstate cruise control works great to free up both hands. The cigarette doesn't last too long but it saves me a stop on the road

I have used several types as I like coffee and I travel long distances during the summer months. This is what I currently use. $19.95 for two. I use it because it holds cups of coffee even in paper cups nicely. I remove the clamp, take out the top allen head that holds the brake set up in place. I went to Lowes found a bolt that was same size and thread and bought a couple of different lengths. I also had an assortment of spacers to place on the bolt to make sure the holder stood upright. It fits nicely and holds coffee cups, small Powerades and 16 oz bottles of water. I did use a drill to counter sink the head of the bolt so it did not interfere with putting the drink in the holder. I live in Florida and during July and August I often take a bottle of water with me. Over the last few months I have found several insulated cups that also fit securely in the holder.
