Re: Coffee

Why not on the GeeZer?? They make a 7/8" bar mount, as well as 1" & 1-1/4".

And, the cup holder part clips on & off the mount. Sounds ideal for your need.

I say go for it!

Re: Coffee

I was thinking the snap 'n go was priced below Absolutely Ridiculous, but its 1" and the Geezer is 7/8" right? I guess I could cough up the $90 for the fancy ones, but I'm supposed to be selling this thing at some point (when, I don't really know... at this point someone has to walk up to me on the street and spontaneously give me an envelope of cash for the keys I guess.)

Maybe the SG snap on for the Strat. I will measure the bars tonight. "Honey, I have to take the Strat today, I'm gettin' Starbucks!"

Re: Coffee

It's on sale for $69.95 (+ shipping) as we speak.

The cup retaining ring removes from the bracket.

Also, you could use the leather saddlebag mount for the Strat (on the previously mentioned site)

Good luck!

Re: Coffee

Maybe you could finally sell the GZ in California if it had a Starbucks coffee holder on it. :roll: :poke2:

My sister Drinks coffee when she rides to work quite frequently, she has a cup holder on her bike by the way, of course about half the time she doesn't wear a helmet either.

Re: Coffee

Now, if she prefers Starbucks to that Duncan Donuts dishwater she might be the perfect woman!

Re: Coffee

You may be able to get your Starbucks at Burger King real soon!

Can new coffee perk up BK's breakfast biz?
Burger King is waking up to Starbucks, but will it be enough to rule the breakfast world dominated by McDonald's?
Posted by InvestorPlace on Wednesday, February 17, 2010 12:29 PM

InvestorPlaceBurger King (BKC) has been sleepwalking through breakfast sales for a long time, and a new partnership with Starbucks (SBUX) announced on Tuesday isn't likely to be the wake-up call the company needs to catch archrival McDonald's (MCD).



By September, Burger King said it will replace its current BK Joe coffee line at some 7,250 locations with Seattle's Best Coffee, the former hometown rival that Starbucks acquired in 2003. Prices for the 100% Arabica-bean coffee will range from $1 to $2.79, with the option to add some of Starbucks' bells and whistles like flavored syrup and whipped cream.

Re: Coffee

We'll see how that goes. Given my propensity to apply anything consumed at McD's or BK directly to my gut ("FatOn: Apply directly to the gut! Apply directly to the gut!") I try to keep my visits there to a minimum.

Speaking of my gut, it tells me that BK will likely reduce the quality of the coffee down to the level of their other fare, but, when you think about it, if you use the right ingredients, most of preparing coffee is boiling the water. I guess the key is - will they be distilling the unsold brew down to asphalt filler in those glass carafes sitting on electric burners.

Guess I better get crack-a-lackin' on that cup holder.
