My simple Cup Holder

This is a simple Modification. I used a cup holder designed to hang over an open window of an auto. All I did was to cut off the bracket and add two strips of velcro side by side.

It was mounted dead center of the panel in front of my legs. Normally it is stored in one of my saddle boxes until needed.

See the photograph.

Velcro
by: Ron Goldwyn, Milford CT

Dear Kathi,
If you notice some of my photos of my manual windshield wiper that I added, I show on the side a remote control for the audio system on the left and a wrist watch on the right. Both are secured with strips of Velcro, but for safety's sake I also have a chain with a snap shackle. Yes the cans stay put and the load on the velcro decreases as the liquid is consumed.

Does the Velcro Hold?
by: Kathi

Neat idea, Ron. I tried afixing a clock to my scooter with velcro and it didn't hold for more than a trip or two. I think it was the vibration.

Have you actually carried a drink in yours? And it holds?

Great innovation... of course, if you buy a Buddy like me, you have a cup holder built in!

Battery Tender Junior in package

A battery tender like the Battery Tender Jr. can make all the difference in whether your scooter will start right up each spring, after being stored for months.

Just about every scooter owner needs to have a battery tender, sometimes called a trickle charger. Unless you are lucky enough to live in a climate where you can ride all year long, chances are your scooter will be put on ice, figuratively-speaking, for at least a couple months every winter.

One of the key steps in winterizing a scooter is to protect your battery from draining during its "rest" period. This can – and will – happen if you leave your battery sitting untended in your cold scooter over the winter, even if it's in a garage or shed.

Read our review or go right to Amazon.com to buy this highly recommended Battery Tender Jr NOW...
