Default Discrete cup holder anyone?

I know this may sound silly but I gotta have my Pepsi with me at all times, especially when I'm riding...

So I am wondering if anyone has found a good chrome cup holder out there that clamps to the bars that doesn't look too out of place on the fury?
I had one on my Road King that worked out good but I can't seem to find that one anymore.

I've found a couple on eBay but I don't know what size bars the fury has and not real sure if they would look out of place on it so I figured I'd jump on here and see if anyone else has looked and found anything...

Appreciate it
J

Bars are 1.25 inches down to 1 inch at grips. Cup colder would be nice if easy on easy off.

I know that Honda makes a cup holder for motorcycle riders and it actually comes with a pretty cool attachment... A GOLDWING!

They got them cup holder helmets too. You know the ones with the straw right at your mouth, but don't know if they are DOT. Can anyone check and see if they are DOT approved?????

Just bustin your balls brother... Love the Orange!

I thought about attaching a bottle holder to one of the down tubes for long rides. I used to mountan bike alot and thought i might just pick a cheapy from walmart and paint it to match.

Thanks for the info....Yeah easy on/off is what I was thinking too. I'd want it off during bike nights. I Only need it on long rides. I took a 150 mile ride yesterday and found myself stopping at convenient stores quite often for a drink.. Not wanting to waste daylight I drank about half a 20 oz and tossed the rest. A 20oz bottle holder would have been very nice yesterday. it would of eliminated 3 or 4 stops.

That's an idea but I'd prefer something to just hold a 20oz Pepsi...

I'll find something sooner or later.... Appreciate the replies.

This one mounts to the clutch perch (or brake)

and you can remove most of it when you want, just leaves small chrome mount.

Default I'd love to have one, too!

Every cup holder that I've found so far will NOT allow clearance of the fuel tank in a turn. All that I've found so far allow the cup to hang down too far. If anyone finds one that allows clearance of the fuel tank, post it here so we all are aware.

Thanks,
