Passenger drink holder

pagemastr · 09-14-2009, 06:45 PM

Does anyone have any suggestions for a cup holder and a place to put it for the passenger that is out of the way but easy for them to reach while riding? Gotta keep the SO happy... sheesh, of all of the complaints ::)

Thanks!!!

Never thought about it but I think it should be a doable mod.
I'll have to think about it for awhile.

Hey get one of those hats that have water bottles on each side . And all she has to do is lean forwad stick the hose in mouth and get her a drink of water . What do you think of that idea ?

Mine only drinks when I tell her she's thirsty. That's usually not until after she has made me bacon and eggs and cleaned the kitchen. ::)

You can get a holder that mounts on the rear crashbar, A neighbour has one on his bike.

The secret is apparently to ride solo. :-)

Now let's see. Passenger has two arms and hands, I presume. I would suggest holding beverage in one hand and use other hand to hold on to bike if they need to. I ride solo myself so I don't have that for a problem. When I want to drink I usually find a store and stop in a have one and then I am on my way again.

He may also be a dead man if said rider ever see's that post-

But we won't talk about that...

Fish's idea looks about the best bet, unless you can figure out how to mount it on the crash bars without it being in her leg's way, cause I'm pretty sure that would be just as bad as no cup holder. Jus' sayin'.

I have a set of chaps with pockets on the rear crash bars.
The wife has gotten use to setting her drink in the pockets.
It's fairly easy for her to get to it, and she doesn't have to hit me in the back of the helmet to give her some of my drink .... any more! ::)
