I'm planning on getting the Khrome Werks armrests for my '08 GL1800 but have run into the dilemma of a drink holder. Is there one available that will bolt on to this style armrest?

Thanks for any advice in this matter.

I'm not familiar with Khrome Werks but I have seen Kuryakyn armrests with a built-in swivel drinks holder in the right side rest.

Yes, unfortunately, Kuryakyn seems to be the only company that has a built-in armrest. I just personally prefer the Khrome Werks style as it bolts to the handrails and from all accounts is very comfortable.

I'm just seeing what options are out there in the way of beverage holders that would bolt on to either that armrest, or some other point in the vicinity of the passenger.

How about a link to those so we can see what they look like.

Sure thing. They don't look quite as nice as the Kury's (IMHO) but they are not attached to the trunk which is something I'm trying to avoid if at all possible.....

Similar to what I have on my 1100.

Here's a braket that fits on the front of an armrest like ours. It's for the Butler cups.

And here's some storage pockets that will fit the outside of the same armrest.

Here's the ones I just put on my 1100. I had to make a shim from a couple of pieces of clear tubing to make it fit the passenger armrest pole.

Thanks for those photos and links, Bagmaster. That's exactly what I'm looking for. Now I can order the Khrome Werks armrests with piece of mind. I had seen those pouches and thought she might like one of those as well. We'll see.
