E-ZPass: revisited

[PaSpyderRyder]

Put it inside the lid of the frunk. Works Great the, & no worries about it getting stolen.IMG_1402.jpg

That is the same place that I put mine from PA at...... Had it there on the 11 also, never had any issues with it being picked up at the booth.

Have you ever had trouble with cargo up front knocking it loose?
Or not being able to close the frunklid??

Never Had any issues at all, The velcro that comes with it is the strong plastic kind, really holds good.

Bob

wow, that is twice as big as ours, maybe Bob needs a Va EZ Pass?

[harrypottar]

when pulling a trailer do you still go thru the ezypass fast lane ???

I was told that I could drive through most tolls and they would just count the axels. The one exception I was warned about was New York, I was told I should stop and get ticket. They credit the ez pass read for the bike and charge for both at the other end. Just make sure you registered the trailer license plate with ez pass. Please note I could not register trailer on line I had to call for them to add to the system.

btw, never had an issue with the ez pass reading in the frunk behind the liner even with the frunk stuffed. Again not a huge worry has they scan your license plate anyway and match in the system. That's why you're not supposed to use the ez pass in an unregistered car.

its fun to mess with them anyway, ride through with the ez pass, stop at the service station and put the ez pass in the electrostatic bag it comes in and exit some time later.

I always wondered if you blast through the cameras at 95 mph if they can pick it up?

[mastertek2000]

i know when i use to ride 2 wheels we would go thru in pairs never had a problem

I did add my trailer, but on the web site it would not let me save the plate type it would error. So I called them and had them add the trailer make model and plate etc .

They frown on that sort of thing...

hi Bob I have a 2014 rts and what I did was to tape the unit to the top of the front frunk inside it woks great and very secure put it in a plastic baggy then taped it up...

I put mine under the frunk lid also.
The Newburgh-Beacon bridge doesn't read it, and the Bear Mountain bridge is iffy.
I haven't had luggage knock it loose, however my RT is Timeless Black (the fastest color, proven beyond a doubt using quantum physics).
Sometimes, during the heat of the day in summer, the frunk gets hot enough that the stock adhesive on the mounting strips comes loose.
A little Gorilla Glue and I'm good to go.

[Bob Denman]

Mine has been up in the nose of the bike (taped un place underneath the front document pouch.) It has always been read by the tollbooths.
It was suggested that I try the left rear document pouch, and I'm going to do just that!
(I've never been able to get them to stick to the Frunklid... )

When I got my Motorcycle EZPass (NY) in 2013, I was able to add the Spyder and trailer online with no problems. The Spyder is listed as "Initial Veteran Motorcycle" with the plate number and vehicle code 136. The system did not allow me to enter the make or model, so those are listed as "Other". The trailer is listed as just that, with the plate number and vehicle code 72, make "Other". and model "1 axle trailer. The big change now for motorcyclists is that in order to get a motorcycle specific EZPass (it is smaller that a regular EZPass and has an M on the back) you must either go to an EZPass center with your registration, or mail a copy of the registration to an EZPass center. The advantage of a motorcycle specific transponder is lower tolls. Trailers, I don't know how they are dealt with now as far as registration, but there is no EZPass for trailers. Tolls are higher when pulling the trailer, as the classification becomes 3 axle.

The document pouch sounds good/
As to the frunk lid, you need to make sure you clean off any release compound.

[Bob Denman]

I even wiped it with MEK!

(That stuff will peel the lipstick off of a Kardashian! )

2011 RT Limited: What I mean is I usually hold it in the compartment under the handlebars. Then as I go through the toll I hold it in my hand. (PITA) so I tried like others and put it in the Frunk in multiple places. The reader just won't pick it up unless it's somewhat exposed. I don't want to Velcro it on my dash cause I think it's an eye sore... Not sure what else to do. Wait spray paint it Black? Hmmmm

You can get extra Velcro and make it stay on the lid.

Just thinking it would be out of your way there.

That is what I did after it fell a couple times - the whole back of it is covered with the EZ-Pass version of Velcro. In WV, I can sign in to my EZ-Pass account, online, and order extra Velcro strips.

[stillriding]

You might find success by placing the unit in a pouch mounted on the glove box lid (for Rts).

[wd8ajj]

Wow, I thought they got rid of the boxes. In Colo we get a magnetic barcode that is glued to the windshield, lower left corner. No box no batteries. Worked fine on I 44 going to Spyderfest.

Bob

I zip tied my ez pass to my windshield bracket and this weekend went through a toll booth and it wouldn't read it... we have always had issues with it, no matter where I put it..
the case on my EZ pass must be lead lined

[Cleg]

I've had my motorcycle ezpass under the trunk lid on 3 RT models. Never an issue and even allows the drunk to be 'loaded'...

[SpyderSteveFL]

I took my Sunpass apart and put the board in the trunk, sandwiched in between the inner and outer panels. No chance of it falling out, it's up higher and never missed a beat. The only negative is you can't take it out if you ever don't want to use it.
