How do you use/secure EZPass on your bike. I've tried slipping it in a pocket, and holding it as I go through a toll, but there's gotta be a better solution.

Twisted Throttle has an ez pass mount that fits on your handlebar. I have mine mounted right in the center. You could also mount it to the back of your windshield with the mounting velcro they supply. I swap mine between my car and bike so I wanted something easier.

No clue what an EZ pass is
I'm not sure how the EZ Pass may differ from the Fastrak pass device here in California. Ours is about 3-1/2" square plastic puck thing, it's about a half inch thick.
Anyone ever run into that?
That a JJ CyclePass
JJ Cycle Pass, a new, convenient way for motorcycle riders to use electronic toll passes such as EZ Pass, M-Tag, IPASS, and Smart-Tag
I've had mine for years and it works great.

Yep. On my old bike, I went to get on the Thruway, and just left it in my pocket thinking it would still be detected through a layer of leather. It didn't work. I had to actually stop slightly beyond the booth, pulled it out of my pocket, and started waving it around like this: :surrender:
A sympathetic tollbooth person came running out with a ticket so I could pay by cash at my destination.
I rarely (as in never, if I can possibly avoid it) take the Thruway on the bike, so for now I'm with the "hold it in the air" crowd, but the mounts or velcro sound ideal for someone who might take a toll road more frequently. That velcro stuff should be more than adequate to hold it in place. You can actually get more of it to secure the unit to a second vehicle for free if you call the Thruway authorities.
Same idea. Different name.
Fast Pass, EZ Pass, Fast Trak, etc....they are all the same thing - a little box that tracks your trips through toll booths and charge you accordingly so you don't have to whip out a dollar every time you travel.
