A question about SunPass and Motorcycles?
Hi Gang, I wanted to know if anyone could give me feedback on how well a SunPass transponder would work in my jacket pocket since I don't have a windshield or want to mount it on the handle bars the way SunPass told me to do it. I currently have been avoiding rides that go via toll roads or selecting routes that bypass them altogether. I figured someone in this group would know the answer and I even read on some thread of a member called SunPass! .... Ross

I keep mine in the 3 leather pouch on the winshield with no problems. I have even heard in can be mounted in the lid of hard sabble bags but I haven't tried it.

They work fine as mentioned above. For best performance, the backside of the unit, the side that's suppose to be against the windshield, should be pointed forward/up.
Also, as long as your bike's tag number is registered to a transponder, you will not be fined if the transponder fails to register. If it doesn't register or you forget to put the transponder on the bike and go through a toll booth, Sunpass checks the tag # captured in the photo against it's Sunpass/tag database and just bills the toll to the associated unit. No fine.
NOTE: The new Sunpass "stickers" only work on GLASS windshields.

I'm not saying however, that if you go through a Sunpass booth 100 times without the transponder, that Sunpass folks will not send you a nasty letter.
