stuff for a 2013 ST

[spyderrider12]

I am trying to find two things: highway pegs and brackets, also a cupholder that will fit on a 2013 ST.

I've got the highway brackets done, just waiting on pricing. :doorag:

I keep seeing cup holders . . . how do you drink :dontknow:? A straw? I use a CamelBak . . .

ok, thanks!. Flaminobabe, that website didn't show any pic of a ST with the cupholder mounted, plus the price was different at different places on the site, kind of made me wonder. :f_spider:

I have the Butler and just keep a 20 oz water bottle or cup in the provided cup

:shocked: So much stuff in front of me would just cause confusion... I keep a couple of bottles of water in the top trunk, and take a pull from them during fuel stops. :thumbup:

Bob...I'll drink 20oz while riding and 20 oz at gas stop......we are still pushing triple digits...but I'm not riding now

I minimiize the water going in, to minimize the water coming back out! :shocked:
Rehydration takes place after the bike is put away...

..But I don't ride anything like the heat that you have! :yikes:

That's a dangerous game. Dehydration is a serious thing and can happen at any temperature. If you weren't very hydrated before leaving, it could take as little as 2 hours to be severely dehydrated while riding. Not only does it make you feel awful and cripple your judgement (a lot like drinking alcohol) but it can cause short and long term damage to internal organs (a lot like drinking alcohol).

One kidney stone and you'll be a believer!

The Butler isn't my favorite, but any method of having a good sized drink readily available is ok in my book!



I think this cost me $30 or so for the ram ball band http://goo.gl/VT5vd0 and the drink2go cup holder http://www.mycupholder.com/can-am-spyder-cup-holder.html

As another option... or while waiting for the perfect ST solution.

the Butler worked perfect for me....I needed a way to attach my CB...on the backside of Butler clamp...Mark fabricated a piece to attach and install my CB.....

Thanks for the advice; I'm pretty aware of my kidney funcion... (Currently at 65% GFR...)
I keep an eye out for the signs... and I do "water-up" prior to the ride! :thumbup:

I just hate stopping to "spend a penny" at every tree that I see...pps:

Hi, check this out

cup holder

try drink2go.net the cup holder has a neat clamp that i attach to the passenger grab rail the draw back to that would be if you were interested in trying to drink and ryde at the same time as it is then behind you something that i don't do and cant really do with a full face helmet on hyea:

Charles Faw (PM him) makes a great cup holder for the spyders, it can be used for a variety of sizes of drinks, Butler makes a great Mug and holder (Site Sponsor), be careful with the Drink2go holders, they can cut the hand holders on your spyder and then the little money you saved will become a big expense to repair the passenger grips.
