Thanks. I ended up with this.

Pros: It doesn't get in the way.

Cons: It's designed to hold a water bottle. So say an open can only goes 3/4 of the way to the top. And the bottom is mesh; not want I want hanging right over the battery door. It also doesn't seem to fit a to go coffee container.

Still looking for the best solution.

Drink at home. You can use both hands.

Cup holders on bikes are a pet peeve of mine. Like blow dryers, and curling irons in boats.

Well, maybe I want to go get coffee? I don't see your issue.

Join the club. No one does...

Meetings Tues., and Thursdays, Crawfordville, Ramada... 

I simply think they make people complaisant, and forgetful they are not at home in their Barcalounger.

I can see that, the bike is so fun you need to stay vigilant on safety and how much risk you're taking.

This isn't about drinking while moving.

I'm guessing it is more about taking coffee with you to drink AFTER you arrive?

Look in motorcyclesuperstore,Leatherup.com,etc.

But- yes, safety is first and foremost . I carry my waterbottle in my Tunnel bag and pull over/stop when I need to hydrate. Long trips ... Camelback water reservoir .
