Check out this cup holder I bought it from Autozone for $9.99
you can use the velcro or bolt on for installation.
I used the velcro --no problems.
The cup holder is made by Bell and it adjusts to all size beverages.

That looks like it should work well. I'm not a fan of velcro though, I know in the heat, sometimes the glue on the underside will soften and can move. I guess if that happens you have the option to screw it down so why not try it. I'm not happy with the cup holder on my TN-70. It will hold your basic can or bottle fine, but its not wide enough to handle anything with a cooler sleeve. I guess the Euro's who designed this didn;t think of this, but I don't drink a beverage without one of these, particularly in the hot sun, where we frequently use our machines.

Radman2: I too also think it should work well, and yes most want a beverage on a hot day, and also you wouldnt have to worry about losing you beverage if its in a holder, so i think its a good idea to install a cup holder or some device to hold your beverage, i think that using the bolts would keep it more secure but i think the velcrow will do fine.

Last weekend at a dealer I saw a "StukCup." It's a standard athletic drink container that has an insulating jacket and a strong magnet on the bottom. You just stick it to a metal part of the tractor--looked cool so I bought one:rolleyes: Haven't had a chance to try it it. StukCup - the magnetic sports bottle that sticks!

Its hard to find any metal on these tractors today for the magnet to stick to!

After having numerous bottle fall out of my JD "cup-holder" I have taken to using a small Mil-Surp kit bag with one bottle of frozen water and another coupla bottles/tins of liquid to drink. Wetting the kit bag helps as well, especially if you have a sandwich or two in it.....just don't use paper bags

I found a way around that horrible design of a cup holder, a thick, cheap can coozie. It fits perfect in the factory cup holder.
