So if we have a regular SunPass registered for all the other vehicles, we can just register the bike tag under that one and we don't have to buy the little portable one? I just went a bought a small one for the bike, but it isn't opened yet.

I keep my sunpass somewhere in my tourpak... doubt it gets picked up and have never had an issue.

If you bougnt the one thats a little sticker, it wont work on the bike. IT depends on a GLASS windshield to act as an antenna.

When I rode to Massachusetts this past spring I almost got slammed by a car after I paid my toll in Scranton, PA. After that, I said screw it and ran the tolls in every state. I never got a bill from any of them, so Im sure they couldnt read my tag under my tourpak.

Yes. And stay to the left side of the lane close to the line while riding past a toll camera. You'll figure out why.

All my vehicles are registered on 1 Sunpass. I don't carry the transponder on any of them.

Outstanding. Thanks everyone. I will get the bike on my SunPass account as soon as I get the permanent tag.

Those $20 portable ones are such a waste. I keep mine in my outer vest pocket and the tollbooths never pick it up. I figured it was he leather, but others don't seem to have the same issue on here.

And hey, the cool thing about not picking it up and using your plate is that you get a free pic of you out riding! HAHA!

I have to try this left hand of the lane thing. Hmmmm!

Only toll road I take over here in the Tampa area is the Leroy selmon and it's pretty easy to drop the tailgate or fold the tag shut on a new iron haha

I don't use the transponder on my bike, I pay by tag. My car currently have the sticker and I add my bike tag at the website and no problem at all.
