I just looked into this and in MA it's called Fast:Lane. It's part of some of the EZ PASS network of roads but it's technically not EZ PASS. And they only have one unit for all vehicles; cars, trucks and bikes.

Holding on to a buddy of mine's SE Electra-Glide. He has his mounted inside on the bottom of the top of his tour pack, with the back of the Easy Pass facing up and it works fine.

You do have a bike e-z-pass, right? They charge less for the bike than they do for the cages....

When you ride and pay cash money, do they charge less for the bike than they do for a cage? I'd think that the units may be the same but that they may link one to your bike so you pay less. It's not what the units look like - EZ-Pass makes many different unit configs, the window unit, the license plate unit. I think my bike unit is exactly the same as my car units except it says "motorcycle". It's if the serial number of the unit is linked to the costs of a two wheel vs four wheel vehicle and therefore paying less tolls.

I can use my EZ-Pass in Mass. I'd assume just like here, my car toll on the Mass Pike would be $3 and my bike toll, cause the one pass is registered to my bike, say $2.

No, we pay the same price for car or mc. If you went through on your kids Big Wheel they'd charge you the same price. This state takes pride in bleeding you for every last nickel! [:@]

The cameras are set up to take pictures of car license plates. If you ride the white line the camera can't take your picture.[sm=icon_quiet.gif]

Pockets are the best option. I ride withoutmy bags/windshield sometimes.

I have mine mounted on the front of my helmet. Doesn't look pretty but does the job!
