    Default Will the usual add-ons fit the Tri Axis bars on my RT?

    I recently purchased my Tri Axis bars for my RT after friends recommended them and reading all the positive comments here and we're set to have them installed early next week. I have a question though. Does anyone know if the same accessories can be attached to these handlebars, like a phone or a drink holder? I am so bummed. I had purchased a stainless steel bolt with a 1" RAM Mount Ball from Can-Am Accessories which would replace one of the bolts attaching my current handlebars as a way to mount my cell phone holder. My mechanic told me it is not the same bolt on the Tri-Axis. Aw geez - seriously? Not something I thought to ask before purchasing the pricey bolt! So now I am looking for other ways to mount my cell and water bottle. I can't seem to find out any information if they will fit the different bars and need at least the drink holder attached as I will be taking a road trip and it is going to be very warm. I found one that might work but was flabbergasted at the price. If someone can help I would sure appreciate it. Thanks so much!

    I forgot to post a follow up. I was able to sell my "pricey bolt" pretty quickly. I sure appreciate all who go out of your way to give suggestions!

    Call Spyderpops and ask if the Spyder Cuff Bracket with drink holder, https://spyderpops.com/rt-rts-rt-ltd...th-cup-holder/, will fit the Tri-Axis bars. It's hard to tell from the picture.

    Lamonster Spyder cuff works well on the Tri Axis bars

    I would contact Can Am Accessories and ask them. Was the bolt going to be one of the 4 that attach the bar mount? They should be the same as your stock bars. And yes, I have tri Axis bars on my RT.

    How old would you be if you didn't know how old you were?

    You may want to wait until you get the TriAxis bars installed so you know exactly what you are dealing with. If you need a different solution Lamont's Spyder Cuff and Drink Holder is an outstanding solution. I have his Cuff on my TriAxis bars along with a drink holder and phone holder attached to the cuff. A really slick combined solution.

    Good luck.

    If the accessories bolt to the center of the bars they will not work.
