Not the most sexy modification, but certainly practical. Who has a cupholder solution that they are proud of? A tallboy--of Monster of course--would be nice on the highway.

I use the perch mount

a half helmet, or 3/4 with a face shield is easy. cruise control helps. or use your left hand. it isn't that hard. now, if you have a modular or full face, then you're gonna have to do something different.

I like the barefoot willies myself. it isn't pretty, but it is very functional. and they have a great warranty. I had one crack after using it for 10 years and they replaced it free of charge.

I don't have anything up front. The wife has the Ciro Big Ass Cupholder (mounted on tour pack). If I mount anything up front I would go with the Ciro handle bar mount. Ciro with the perch mount is a big bonus.

I didnt want something attached to the bars, too in the way, and looks terrible.

Some time ago I bought a cupholder from Hog Trough that was attached to the right side lower door. But it was too big for the cup I like to use, so I bought a leather cupholder from Captain Itch, removed the holder part from the mount, drilled an extra hole in the door, and mounted it to the door. Works very well, and holds my Starbucks thermal cup very well. It's one of the few cups that will work with this setup because a taller cup will hit the wind blocker attached to the fairing.

If you want to look at the Hog Trough setup, its here: Store – HogTrough, I didnt buy the whole package, if you talk to them, you can just order the door setup for much less money.

I'm not a fan of cup holders on handlebars......I have the Chubby Cups installed on my rear saddle bag guard.....that way when I stop, I can hydrate....

If Ciro is lurking on this thread: My wife loves the drink holder which mounts to the tour pak-speaker pod area. I think the next logical step in your drink holders would be ....wait for it..... lighted LED drink holders. o_O There's a light for darned near everything on a Harley, but we're having to endure (languish even) drink holders which just sit there quietly. C'mon man!.....:geek:

I have the leather tool bag and water bottle holder that goes on the saddlebag guard. Holds my Mt Dew within easy reach. And the wife has her drink in one on the other side. It also holds all my tools and keeps the sun screen handy as well.
