EZ-Pass, toll tags....
Where is the best place to mount them? I have one of those ez pass pouches, and I'm think of tying it to the mirrors.

I keep ours in a top pocket in the tankbag. It's not critical if it gets read or not, at least in California, as they have cameras that pick up the license plate if they don't get a read on the FasTrak transponder anyway. Many folks never put the FasTrak transponder in the car or on the bike at all and just rely on the plate-reading, though it's not recommended, as you can get a ticket for it if you happen to be pulled over for non-payment immediately after going through a toll. If you have the transponder on you, there's no ticket.

It can't just lay across the top of the gauge cluster and the windscreen?

What Alex said also applies to the Ez Pass. I don't like to attach much to Tyke (I take to many pictures) So I usually just keep it in my pocket... If I can pull it out I do but if there is to much traffic I'll just pass through. The gates will honk and they will take a picture of my plates and bill my account. As long as the motorcycle is registered to your account.

I'm not worry about the tickets, but some of them have gates... and I'm not a fan of limbo dancing on my bike.

I put the two little hook & loop sticky tabs on the indside my windscreen. As the screen curves you have to be careful attaching the EZPass transponder or else it can fall off.
I don't see how people can pull them out of a pocket and put them back in while moving and wearing gloves. It seems dropping it would just be a matter of time. I have been considering a Puig or ZG windscreen but those are even more curved so I would have to figure another way of attaching it. Tim |

As for other ways... You can try and get another bit of the velcro stuff that they give you for the car and strip it to the windscreen.. As for the pocket thing. Put it in your throttle pocket, your clutch hand will be holding it in because you are shifting down. I reach in, pull it out and hold it above the windscreen. Zip through, pocket it, and be on my merry little way... Of course I am used to that cause I take pictures while I ride too...
