Anyone have a drink holder mounted on their handlebars?  I have seen a few around and just wondered what type and where you found yours?  Thanks for the help guys.

I didn't want to spend $50 for a drink holder so I got this one from Barefoot Willies.  http://www.barefootwillies.com/beverage.html  It's been on my Valk since '02 and held up well.

Curtis didn't mention that next to the drink holder is the kitchen sink and a dishwasher for the dirty cups. He's got everything on that Valk.   :D

Curtis, does the cup holder have a gyro type mount. or does it just lean when you lean?

No gyro Charles, it stays at whatever orientation you mount it.  The only time I lose any coffee is before my first drink when the cup is brimming and the bike is on the side stand.

Jessie, you can't shame me.  I'm a luddite compared to folks on some of the other forums I frequent.  It's all relative, don't cha know!

Once I get the fairing on Val I plan on adding this one the Bar Buoy.  It is gimbled and worked great in my parrents boat.

Thanks that is what I was hoping it would be I'm not a big fan of the ones that swivel to stay up right I usually end up bumping it and spilling it anyway. I just need a place to hang a Dr Pepper can. Think I'm going to try one thanks.

Kerry, the price is right but like Charles I'm not a fan of gimbal mounts for cup holders.  They're really not needed except for when the bike is on the side stand.

I saw a booth at the Galveston Rally last year that was selling cupholders that were rubber and they just stuck to the tank.  All (hot) summer I have regretted not buying one to carry my water bottle in. I won't miss out on that if they are there this year.

Barefoot Willies is what I have on my bike - I love it!

It was the first thing I put on my bike after I got it home!
