I keep mine in a bag at the top of my saddlebag in case I come upon a toll unaware. It will most often read from there. But if I know I'm heading to toll roads or bridges, I have the Velcro mounting tapes on my windshield on the lower right (below the windshield mounting bracket) and it reads from there every time.

Works for me....... Haven't paid an open road toll in almost 3 years...... If I am heading out of state I have velcro behind the passenger back rest in the tour pack. Here in IL they told me it has to be upright or at a a slight back angle (like on the windsheild) for it to read properly. When it is in the tourpack, it has never failed to read.

I've tried mine in all same places you guys are saying yours works.... Saddlebags, tour pack, and fairing. Even coat chest pocket. The ONLY place I've ever been able to get mine to work has been on the windshield, in plain view.
Mine is the newer, smaller one they hand out now. Not sure if that matters or not.
Now that I've got the bike listed though, i really don't need the pass as they just attach it to my plate number

I have one of the newer, small motorcycle tags in the right hand pouch on my ultraclassic, and it works fine.
In NY, some of the tolls for bridges and the Thruway are discounted with a motorcycle tag.

Because I don't have the luxury of hiding it in a tour pak or in a windshield pouch I zip tied mine to the underside of the lower triple tree. Never had a problem with it not reading and most people don't even notice it's there. We have different ones for bikes here. I don't think you can switch them back and forth from a car to the bike.
