Does anyone sell a cup holder for the K1200LT? I take meds that leave my mouth dry so, I carry cold water on my bike. The handle bar covers present a problem.
Any help is appreciated.
Ride safe!

I do remember something about a cup holder specific to the K1200LT but I'll have to poke around in an old forum thread and see if I can find it.

Addendum: Found this on another BMW site (picture). It's a BMW KLT specific folding cup holder but I believe it's no longer available and was WAY over priced! All others involve cutting the handlebar covers. Perhaps you can adapt something from the unused mirror holes on either side of the bars! Or there was another person that added a plate to the top of the brake reservoir cover. It's very tough trying to find accessories specific to our LT's........Good luck!

Thanks for taking the time, Rob. Much appreciated!!
When I had my K1200LT, I had a tough time finding one, never mind one that I liked, ended up welding a plate to a rod and bolting it to the hand controls. Then I mounted the butler cup holder to that .. ugly but did work. This was a two wheeler that I only had for like a year.
I especially like the cup logo.......

This cup holder thing has been fun! Back in the shop yesterday and came up with another version, still using aluminum flat bar. This one positions the cup higher, with the "load" bearing down on the mount instead of hanging off the mount.....resulting in less vibration/movement. While I was at it, I made a ball mount for my RAM "X" mount.
