Anybody know of anything that will work on the Savage. I want the cup holder for coffee from Dunkin Donuts or similiar soft cups.

For a cell phone holder, do you have buckhorns or drag bars? I could see a universal case mounted pretty easily using the left mirror hardware and a makeshift bracket, or in my case, the quick detach mount of my windshield. Both would stand the phone up enough to read without taking your eyes too far off the road. It would have to be an awful important call to interupt a good ride anyway right? Wink

It was rarely fatal. I dont have a cell phone of my own, but I Do sometimes haul one on errand runs, so I can see if anyone needs anything before I go home..but Im not answering & driving..

my cell phone (work issued or i wouldnt have one!) rides in the saddle bag - out of site, mind and ear-shot.......have had several people say why dont you ever answer your phone......because i am riding and i cant do both at the same time - i check it when i get where i am going and call back......i hate a cell phone! but would also like to have a cup holder for the mcd $1 value tea.

Even the cup holder seems like a luxury best left to the cagers

I've got one of these Contigo travel mugs from Costco that I like to fill w/coffee before I head out in the morning. Toss it in the saddlebag and ride for an hour or so, when you stop for a break you pull out the mug and the coffee is still HOT. And they haven't spilled a drop in the bags yet.

My son bought my husband one of those mugs for Christmas and he absolutely loves it. Better than any other mug out there, hands down! He'll carry a cup of coffee back to bed on a lazy Saturday morning and drop it on the bed, just to scare the crap outta me. Still gets me almost every time (unless I think ahead)
Thanks for pointing out carrying on the bike. Might not have thought of that but I have no doubt it will hold. By the way, he already dropped it and cracked the lid, but they sell replacement lid alone for $7 each. I ordered 2!

As far as phones on the bike, mine links by bluetooth to my Scala rider headset, so the phone goes in the fanny pack on my sissy bar. I can't see who's calling, but I can answer if I feel like it. I don't go anywhere without my phone! I can hear and they can hear me just fine, no matter how fast I'm riding.
