Looking for cup holders,, Need sugestions

[S-Wood Newbie]

I have a 2011 RT LTD, and I am looking for front and rear cup holders. Anyone have any sugestions?

I have this cup holder on my RT-S passenger hand grip. Works good for me. Don't think it would work on front though. I'm sure others will have suggestions too.

It's nice to have an another IL spyder

Here is the thread you should read (cup holders from 7/7/11)

I am using Drinks2Go and love it but I have an RS so I am not sure if there is another one for RT

I have the same as Leslee, but I added a small rubber strap and a key ring to go around the bottle neck so it wont fly out when the water gets low.

Just got one like Leslee gave you the web site for and it works fine on my 2011 RT-LTD

If you don't mind a little logo, the M-Wave is the same construction, but Amazon has it on sale for $9.75, while it's $20 at Bakerbuilt. We have one on our RT, and my wife loves it. I also have a Liquid Caddy swiveling cup holder on the handlebar, which, while not perfect, works well, and can be had in three different colors at Amazon for $9.47. It also twists to grip different size drink containers.

I think these are the only Spyder things I've bought from Amazon, but they were so much less expensive, I figured I'd give them a whirl, and they've not disappointed. I've had the Liquid Caddy for more than a year, and the M-Wave for two months.

That is the one, we got ours 3 years ago...and we rode there...we are only 118 miles from Duluth...they do give discounts if you pick up at the store so that could account for the price difference too.
It's a great holder, they have never slipped in over 20,000 miles.

These are a few pics of our Buttler mounts on our RT and RS. Before we bought her the RS we always road 2-up on the RT and we shared the buttler. This is a 20oz but was more than enough for us, however you can get the bigger mount and mug. J & P cycle has them. the 20oz cost us 59.99 plus shipping unless you can buy it at one of their stores. Here in FL the bottle water will get hot within 10 min. Thats why we got her a new buttler for her RS.
The first two pics are of the RT and the last three are with the 4" risers on the RS. These pics are in my album if you want to see a bigger picture.

I disconnected the analogue gauges & used the left side to mount a cup-holder. Used a Ram-Mount and Marine Swivel cup holder, both of which we found at Bass Pro Shops. With the Ram-Mount, I can change the direction or angle of the cup-holder, and it works pretty good for us. I'm on a very tight budget, so I went with the cheaper Plastic Ram-mount ($19.99) instead of the more expensive ($29.99) aluminum mount. I'm thinking the stronger aluminum mount would have helped with reducing some of the vibration that is transferred from the Spyder to the cup-holder. Its not bad, but if I had the extra $$ I'd recommend getting the Aluminum mount myself. The only other issue, is that the cup-holder itself IS adjustable, height and size. You can make it small & use it for cans (which I don't recommend do to vibration) or longer for bottles & slender cups. But you are limited as to how wide your cup can be. It has a turn ring to make the inside smaller for holding smaller cups, but the outside opening is set, so you can't have any cups that are larger than the set opening. I found a great one-handed aluminum cup at Walmart for $6.99 that has a rubber mouth piece for sipping and long strall built into it. Using it on our 2000 mile round trip to SITA it worked great & was very convenient & I highly recommend it

I designed my own for the front, it is an off the shelf cup holder from the Shucks O'Rielly parts store that I modified to include 3 small suction cups and a safety strap. The strap is 1" wide simular to helmut strap that I created a hook on the end with thin crazy glue. I open the glove box then slide the hook up the grove and and past as far as I like which is just below the hand grip. I put very soft foam rubber at the two contact points where the strap runs over paint edges. I recently moved it to the left side so I can still control the throttle with the right and drink with the left. People think it is a factory option so it does no look home made.

Regards,

Randy

Well Folks-

Here's how I managed to do it... iPhone holder and cup mount. The little green rubber band dampens the swing of a fully loaded soda!
