Someone posted a link to a water bottle holder that attached without drilling holes in the side panels. I lost the link. Does anyone still have it?

Thanks.

It was a unit that attached to the panel between the body of the bike and the fender on the flat panel there. It attached with adhesive strips and showed a guy standing on top the the holders after there were attached to the bike. No holes to drill and seemed to be secure.

Thanks for the reply and I'll check through them.

That's not the same one but it will sure as heck do the job. Really appreciate you finding that link and posting it. I have been going crazy trying to find something like this to appease the rear seat driver. She misses the holders that we had on the Ultra Glide which attached to the guard rails.

Much appreciated.

I have the Chubby Cup Jr. mounted to the left control housing. It is a solid mount, it can also be mounted to the handle bars. Either way it has different options for mounting and positions and as I've said is solid.

To keep your water cold, the Butler Cup is the one to use. I have mine attached at the switch housing right side. Yep, its big but if I want a ice tea from DD, the medium DDcup will fit perfectly in the Butler, keeping the tea nice and cold. I have had ice in the Butler for a good 4-5 hours. Thicker frozen ice stays all day. They make it so it can be attached for the passenger. 20 oz cup and 32oz cup I also buy a new cup, straw and lid this year. <a href="http://www.glassact.com" target="_blank">www.glassact.com</a>
 
It should fit with the Hyd. Clutch. I make mu own mount for the kuzzer kady. I have mine on the front brake housing. I also use a stainless cup holder I got at Walmart. When riding I do not carry hot drinks. The cup has a straw in side so I just uset the straw, will not leak or spill.

been using this for many years. Are you using the resvoior or bars. Don't care for the bar mount. If it moves to much just use a o ring between the mount.

You can still move it but it will stop it from moving when riding.

On my 13 I have it mounted at the bend on the handlebar, but there is no room there with the cable at the front of the hyd.

clutch. Can't picture what you mean about the front brake housing.
 
This is the insulated bottle I've been using for over 7 years. I started out with the 12 oz one and was hoping to find a larger one. Saw this at Target. You push the button and the lid swings open to reveal a rubber straw. You can drink without taking your eyes off the road which is what I really like. Cold drinks have stayed cold for at least 8 hours. Almost indestructible-had one fall while doing 65 mph.....did some scratches.

Will never sweat or leak-even if held upside down and shaken.

Fits perfectly in my KruzerKaddy that bolts to the hand brake bracket. I bought 4 of these just in case I ever need another one and find out they stopped making them. Paranoid I guess.

I found out the hard way about carbonated beverages.

Ever have a fire hose hit you in the face??

:D

EASY REMEDY: Get rid of the Harley and buy a Goldwing (NO VIBRATIONS) OR quit putting carbonated drinks in the cup! :mad::mad: easy peesy!

Sorry had to offer my advice!!
 
When I went from a 2013 to a 2018 trike, I ran into the same trouble others discovered....there is no longer room on the handlebar to attach a water bottle. I use a Contigo brand bottle and I've been very, very happy with how cold it keeps water or juice. No carbonated drinks!! The thing I like about it most is that a "sippy thing" pops up and you can drink without tipping your head back. Don't need to be looking up at the sky instead of what's in front of me.

I wanted to keep using that brand of water bottle but couldn't find a solution to mount it until I
went to a bicycle shop hoping to find something that would work since all they do is mount water bottles on tubes and handlebars at all kinds of angles.

Found this, tried it and it works great.

It attaches with a very thin metal band that wraps around the handlebar. It is so thin it easily fits under the reservoir and you have plenty of 'flat' area to mount it there. It can also be rotated up or down as well.

Then you get a basket/holder that fits the mount and your set to go. It does not interfere with turning the handlebars to full lock either.

Here's a lousy picture of the whole set up, but it should give you a good idea of what it looks like installed.

Hope this helps someone looking for a way to mount a water bottle on the handlebars.
