    Question Lamonster Top Cuff w/Cup Holder Hitting Dash Cover on 2023 Sea-to-Sky?

    Recently installed a Lamonster Top Cuff with Drink Holder on my new, 2023 Can Am Spyder RT Sea-to-Sky. Absolutely love this add-on, but just noticed that on STEEP turns, the cup holder (Even without a cup in it!) can hit the dash/display cover.

    Does anyone else have this issue and how did you work around it? I assume putting a RAM ball in the back with a short arm to get the actual holder out of the way is the only option?

    Thanks, in advance, for any insight/tips!

    Why don't you call Lamonster? It's his design so maybe he has some guidance.

    I have the 2020RTL and Lamonster's cuff with drink holder. I also have the Lamonster handlebar riser kit which gets the handlebars up and back away from the dash approx 2 inches, giving more room between dash & handlebars. No problem with hitting the drink holder.

    Great tip! Thanks! I'm seeing a riser set from Show Chrome, but not a Lamonster-specific one. Would have the same impact, I'm sure.

    Thanks, again!

    I have a 2023 sea to sky I put the cup holder inside the handle bar. I had the same issue, so I instal the cup holder inside the handle bar. Problem solve.

    Same here. I hadn't thought that not having the riser might be a problem, but I guess it is.
