My First "Mod" !

Post by SonnyD »

LOL...... well not much, just one for a little personal comfort... This thing is really cool. Was a breeze to put together and install. It would probably hold a bigger water bottle then it will a cup. cups fit ok, at the base, but my 32 ounce QT cup doesn't fit too well... but it's cool none the less....

Heh. That's the only one I've done too. It was easier than I expected.

I love the gen-u bin.

you lose a little storage, and the cupholder is really only useful for smaller drinks, but, it's pretty awesome.

My garage access card sits in the little cubby along with some misc junk.

Yeah, I rode around all afternoon with my small drink cup in it, lol. I think a 16 or 20 oz bottle would probably work, but most cups are just too wide at the top. My phone would fit in the pocket but would probably take averaging in there. Works good though for Gum, mints, ear plugs, and things that you could just leave and have available. It's a neat little addition though.

I removed the cup holder from my Gen-U-Bin. The resulting hole allows for larger cups to sit down into recess of the bin.

Yeah, I think that is the "Hot setup" even though the hole is big enough, even with the insert in there, it's the Height restriction that gets it... without the insert, the cup will sit down more in the recess......

First Mod

Post by theflash784 »

I bought one too and was pretty proud that I installed it all by self- I am not very mechanically inclined.

where do you get accessories?

Post by jayjaythejetplane »

Hey scooter enthusiasts! Where can you buy Genuine accessories like the cup holder? I looked on the Genuine site and they don't seem to have anything like that.

Thanks!
