Crusher, velcro it to the tourpak lid on the left side.
It works like the cat's A$$.

Not an option. I don't have a tour pack.......

I mounted mine on top of the radio, under the fairing. Works fine on the Parkway and at the Rt 80 gap.

I couldn't get mine to read when I had it strapped to the mirror or held it in my teeth. I've tried vest pocket, in my hand, you name it.I don't know how you guys that mount it under the fairing get it to read at all. I just picked up a windshield pouch to try that. I will find out next month on my trip to DC for Police Week.

Did you have it positioned upright? Believe it or not, mine did not read one time coz it was upside down and held in my hand. It needs to be mounted exactly like it would be mounted to a cars windsheild, the back of the unit facing the toll booth. see my earlier post.

Keep mine in one of the fairing lowers (glove box). Works fine.

Then again if it does't register, here in Florida they take a picture of your plate and as long as that plate is one of up to three you register for that transponder they just charge your account as if it had.

Yup! I tried every angle I could think of after it didn't work when I had it positioned they way it is meant to be. They have the mirror stem mounts that lay it flat and people say they work. DC is coming soon enough and will be my next test with the 3 pocket windshield pouch. I will post my results (just to vent if it doesn't work) after DC.

I tried inside the tour pack, and it didn't get a reading as I went through the Pa. toll booth. (about 20 mph). I guess it wouldn't transmit through the luggage rack on the tour pack?
So I placed it inside the pouch on the back of the driver's back rest.
Works every time.
