I bought one of those light gray cup holders off ebay. This product works ok but the quality of the item didn't stand up to everday use and eventually broke apart due to the material.

I ride almost everyday back in forth to work and sometimes grab drinks for my business partners. So I really put items to the test.

I have found another product that is simliar to the ebay holder, but is so much better and is made of really good materials and really fits my scooter nicely. If you drink coffee or just carry a beverage on your scooter you may want to check out Zero2Sixty's product it works great.

I found it it on amazon.com


Remember don't drink and drive.. Happy Scootering

I dunno, I personally would not choose this cuz if I got a drink. I would wanna sip it at red lights then place it back in a holder easily accesible. You might wanna experiment and try to make a cup holder yourself.

Just an idea.

They hang them from the bag hook. They are kinda nice, padded so they wont scratch the paint and made to be durable. Haven't gotten one myself, but for next summer I might, keep a water bottle in it or some such.

Now, if you're talking coffee....

Here we go again.

My awesome DIY MV cupholder, yo. Daily use. Keeps 'em warm or cold. Fits nearly anything smaller than a Super Duper Gigantic Big Gulp.

Yup. It's cut off and sewn across the bottom. See the link in my previous post...

I have the Prima cup holder, it works good, but I had to zip tie and crazy glue the tubes to the suction cups, now it hold 32oz cups.

I had one of those suction cup Prima holders but found that the bottle usually bounce/slipped out half way through the commute. Then I had the brilliant idea of using one of those naugahyde Hendricks Gin carriers hung from the loop/hook above the glove box. Gets a few odd looks but matches up with the leather on the GTVs seat pretty well.

And I haven't had to explain/demonstrate (yet) to the police that it is just water in the bottle
