Looking for a cup holder for your Kawasaki Concours Motorcycle? Look no further! This universal cup holder will strap around your triangular handle bar and hold a standard size travel mug  (without a handle) a 12 oz can or disposable coffee cup.

Looking at the pictures, it appears awful cheesey for seventeen bucks.  It's not even one full step above a plastic cup holder held on the bar with duct tape.  In fact, if wrapped the bar with plastic first then duct taped it, you would probably have about as good of a cup holder.

Junk. You can buy "coozies" like that for a buck or much much much less.

Spend two bits on duct tape and you too can be a motorsickle accessory manufacturer! Put a HD logo on it and charge $25.

How incredibly unsafe!  Personally I like to keep a camel-back full of vodka  :P

Amen.  I go for functionality, but I don't think I want that hanging on my bike.

I also use the Ram mount cup holder, which has only one sweet spot I could find with minimal
interference. However even there it bounces into the windshield a little going over RR tracks and bumps.

I'm thinking of moving it to the left side passenger peg.

There are some nice cup holders out there, the ones for the Gold Wing will fit the Concours, I used the bracket from my Wing for the GPS and it mounted right up to the reservoir bolts on the concours.

This one is nice because when your not using it there is not a big bulky holder sticking out
