I have used my cup and holder for about two months now. I still like it but liquids do splash out. Since it does not hold much and the level has to remain about an inch down to prevent spillage on everything below your right handle, carry a rag for clean-up at stops. It holds the ice for a while, even in 100 degree temperatures. Although the cup does ride high in the holder, after several 1,000-mile rides with lots of bumps, the cup still remains in the holder. The cup and holder does look good and is easy to use while driving. |

I’ve had several plastic/metal combinations cup holders in the past. Each have broke in some fashion. This is SOLID. Even the slide that opens up the drink hole in the lid is well built. The chrome looks great. This last ride north, another rider hit a bump and his plastic holder snapped off. It looked solid and was a good brand, but the jug and holder now lies on the freeway of Los Angeles. This holder is so much a part of the bike, it suffered no ill effect. It holds less than the larger jugs, but it holds enough to wet the whistle between stops, which works great for me. It keeps the ice from melting too! Purchasing this one good one looks better on the bike and costs less than occasionally buying replacement cheaper ones. |

Looks great installed. It uses the two lower screws from faring pocket, so it is very secure. I had to grind/file a little off where the show chrome met the faring to the inside of the pocket area. Tighting the screws the way it came would have pushed a sharp edge into the plastic of the faring and would have caused damage over time. Easy fix. I am very happy with the results. I would advise using tread lock on four screws that hold each panel on. A friend has these and lost most the chrome screw nuts. The wind wings work very well and stay where you adjust them to. I am very happy with them. They look much better on the bike then in the picture. |
