Yes, this is a fantastic modification. About a year ago, I installed one on my scooter. I just got home from riding in downtown St. Petersburg, Florida (about 88 degrees) and stopped several times for a drink. Here is a suggestion to keep your water thermos cold---Add a few ounces of water (don't cover the neck) to your thermos and place the thermos sideways into your freezer. When you are ready, take the thermos out of the freezer and add water to the top. Since the neck of my thermos is narrow, it is annoying to crush ice which is why I use the above suggestion.
Your awesome. You have great trips modifying a scooter. I just bought a scooter here in the Philippines. I have been wanting to modify my scooter for long road trips. I'm subscribing to see what other modifications you have.
Very cool modification my brother will be checking that out it gets hot up here in Gainesville also thanks for the video is always waving my hand up here down there to you hope you guys are staying safe we are masking up here catch you on the next one
I have used the same cup holder for about 6 months. Still in good order , works good. I use the type of reusable water bottle cyclist use and I found if you put a small square of velcro on the bottom of the bottle and the base of the holder it keeps the bottle secure even on the roughest of roads. Just a thought. I'm considering an small air horn. Any ideas on where and how to mount the horn. Thanks Regards
Hello Riley I love the little cup holder for the horn I would like to buy Wolo (419) Bad Boy Air Horn - 12 Volt amzn.to/2X5COES it is very compact and I think you can replace the stock horn with that and will be very loud . Thank you for watching my video
@@VirberelloScooterTips Thank you for you responding. I'll check out the horn you suggest and keep your videos coming, very informative and fun to watch. Regards
Sorry off topic but you have a similar bike I do question is I have changed out my relay turning signal with two other working I thought relays well I still have no lights the indicators don't work on the dashboard as well please help me let me know if you have any tips
Hello Paul I will check the fuse at the battery if that is ok you will need to have a multimiter and turning on the switch for the turn signal and will test if the relay is getting any voltage is not the first time that a relay is bad from the company if you are not getting a voltage reading you need to follow the wires to see if somewhere are broken or disconnected . thank you for watching my video
I have a question; I need a replacement square cover (access door?) where you mounted your cup holder. Might you know the name of that part, or where to buy it? Thanks! Love your work, I watch your vids almost daily.
Hello Mike that is the place that is more confortable for me to bring my bottle of water and the best location that will not give you any problem riding and opereting your scooter remenber you should not ridding and drinking at the same time your attention need to be on the street if you riding and drinking that can cost your life so if you like to drink you stop on the side of the street and take the bottle and drink that is the way I see it
Question for you, and your thoughts and opinion. I have been considering a sidecar or a trailer for my gy6 150cc scooter. It is my only transportation, grocery getter and just all around fun. I'm not concerned about speed or distance traveled. Regards
Hello Riley a sidecar could be very cool to have but more expensive around 1000 dollars or more but a little trailer like this fordable trailer on AMZ amzn.to/31NzNe1 for around $ 140 and place larger tires and lights in the back or you can spend around 600 dollars + Shipping for a better trailer like Ultra-Tow Tag-Along Trailer Kit on ebay and that look great
The only problem is it's far from where your hands normally are. They do make mirror mounted cup holders. They are much closer, and more convenient. Also made specifically for riders.
Hello my friend this is my favorite Mod on my scooter and the best thing that is a folding cup holder and I find out last night that they also make them in stainless steel
@@VirberelloScooterTips I am probably going to do this mod next, it's hot here in Missouri, I need somewhere to store my drink besides the front compartment

I really like it because when I go to the gym I always bring a small bottle of water with me
Thanks for the video saw this on Amazon and was was wondering if it was possible to drill through the plastic
Hello David yes you can drill but do not drill to deep you could catch a wire

I used several strips of good quality 3M VHB double-sides tape on my Vespa several years ago, and it’s held on well with no screws.

Hello Dylan great Idea thank you for watching my video
Nice idea!!!!!
Hello Clifford thank you for watching my video
so they want you to drill holes into your scooter for this? is there not any that you don't have to literally drill in?
Hello my friend you can place a 3mm commercial double tape that can hold a little bottle with no problem
Where did you get the holder?
Amazon check my video description
Does it still work till today?
Hello my friend yes I put my water bottle inside my holder every day and is still working great 👍
Was thinking about doing this mod
