ez pass
hey i was on the parkway today and this has always pissed me off....do you guys use ezpass and if you do where do you put it so it'll register cuz it never works unless i rip it off my window and hold it in front of the bike...not really the safest way to pass through a toll + a pain in the fuckin ass....i heard if you put it in your jacket it'll work but i haven't tried it.where do you guys mount it or whatever?????????? thanks...

I had a 3 suction cup clip on my gas tank, but one day it didn't stick so good and flew off...but that did the job.

a few people i know accually hide it in the headlight cowl right underneath the windscreen. i just leave it in my jacket pocket incase i come to a toll where theres that blocking thinggy and i have have to show it before they raise it.

keep it in my pocket..
if there is a gate i take it out of the pocket.. if ther eis not gate i just slow down and go thru.. (mayeb take out and roll thru if cops are arouns ) if it does not scan and yo uget a ticekt in themail all yo uhave to do is say that it worked once that day and didnt work on thattoll only.. and bam all they do is charge you the fine... i do that all the time.. |
I picked up one of the suction cup easy pass holders and mounted it to the inside of my windscreen. Never had any issues being read and since it was out of any direct wind it held strong. Otherwise just throw it in your pocket.
|
i got the ezpass that goes the the front license plate (for cars) and zip tied it to my forks, it works for me.

Think she can show you a place to put your easypass??
|
Now are you guys using the pass from your vehicles? Or getting one specifically for the bike. Cant they fine you for switching from one to the other.

With that look on her face it looks like its up her ass..... |
I use my truck ezpass when i ride and put it in my trunk. I've tried the jacket method and it doesn't work, i've tried the sunction cup method and it doesn't work. So it goes in the trunk and works every time.
|
I just keep it in my pocket this way if there is an issue it's easy to get to. I have the motorcycle pass which has a big M on it

I used to mount mine right on the gas tank up near the triple clamp, and it worked at every toll.
|
I keep mine under the passenger seat and it rarely works, and thats kind of the point. For the tolls without gates, if you keep as far right or left it often never even scans, nor does it trigger the photo equipment to take a picture. Seems like they have some flaws in their system they need to fix. ;)
I rarely go through a toll with a gate so thats not a big concern of mine. You are not supposed to use the same EZpass for different class vehicles, so using your car unit while on the bike could cost you. Even if you do move it from one vehicle to another of the same type, you have to have both vehicles registered with ezpass. I am pretty sure the monthly fee is the same, no matter how many units you have, since I have 3 units and still get charged just $1/mo service fee... |
i have 3 units just bc i'm lazy in switching back and forth.
|
I had the hard plastic velcro ezpass on the inside of my windshield for my R6, that seemed to work everytime. Now, I'm wondering if putting it in the back of my jacket, where the back protector is to be inserted and zipped, if that wouldn't work well enough, I haven't had a chance to test it.
|
I had mine mounted under the seat.. but behind the seat so it was under the plastic fairings... it worked fine.
|
Or another option going thru tolls without gates is to just hug the left side hard. Pretty much put your tire on the curb and go. I only got hit for maybe on toll violation doing that. But that is something illegal and don't suggest you should do. :P

I just keep mine in my tail trunk space and never had a problem with that method.

i stick mine right in teh front where teh widhshield is. Its not realy on the windshield that good, but its like kidna stuck there, so it won't go newhere. I got one expecially for the bike because its cheaper for bikes on the turnpike and the tunnels. I switch the one i have for my car with my minivan...

I had it in my front inner jacket pocket and it did not work. I'm still trying to find a spot for it myself.
