Summer will be upon me very soon, and in AZ that means, HYDRATE........

I'm looking for suggestions for a water bottle holder that can attache to the handlebars on the 18 TG. On previous bikes, I have used a Kruzer Kaddy, but mounting one looks to be a bit challenging on the TG. Anyone have something that works well?

TIA

I have cup holders from Ciro3D mounted front and back.

They both mounted easily.

The front uses the screws the hold the switch packs on.

The back mounts behind the speaker enclosure.

They both work great, due to some kidney issues I carry a hidrate www.hidrate.com water bottle all the time with no problems.

I had a Kruzer Kady mounted on my 2013 Ultra and put it on my TK (left side of handlebar). It is a tight fit but works great. I have it positioned just right so if I turn and lock my forks it covers my fuel lid. I know someone could still force it out of the way and open my fuel door but it makes me feel better when away from bike.

For the rear I have the Kuryakyn chrome/basket holder. It is very secure and I can even reach it if riding solo.
 
I went cheap on my Freewheeler

Attached with zip ties it works good and I can get them at any Walmart on the road

I use the Kruzer Kaddy up front... You can get perch mounts for it and it fits easily, even on stock bars.

For passenger I use the Kury, you can see details on it HERE.

Have had no chrome or fading problems...but I am not near the ocean, and also park inside while at home.

Thanks to all for the replies. I hadn't seen the perch mounts for the Kruzr Kaddy, just the handlebar mount, and the Ciro looks nice as well.....decisions, decisions.......
 
I like RAM mounts. Almost any holder can be adapted easily with the RAM system. They have an extensive array of mounts, arms, mounting balls and clamps. https://www.rammount.com/activity/motorcycle-mounts

I made these for the Bubba Hero Sport bottles we like to use on the bikes. The flip-up straw lets us drink without blocking the view of the road. The front connects with a clamp that can attach anywhere on the bars with a U-bolt or directly to the controls clamp:

Gloria's was connected on the underside of the passenger armrests, but she didn't like them and had me take them off. Hers now connects with a RAM Tough Claw on the hand hold, this can be transferred to her Road Hawk trike or anything else the clamp can fit.

RAM has thier own drink holder:

+1 on the Ciro3D drink holders. We have them front and back on our '17 TG. Here's a link for the front one.

Used to use the Kuryakin, but the chrome pitted fairly quickly, and the basket is a black mesh and it bleached out to a grey in about 6 months here in the Florida sun.

My rear Kuryakin has not shown any signs of pitting, nor has the basket bleached out. It has only been on for about 20 months though. We lived about 15 miles from the gulf until last November, which was probably why my front forks turned to crap.

I am 28 miles inland and have the beach sand in the air wearing and tearing @ my bike
