Has anyone mounted a toll fast pass (issued by NJ highway for use on the east coast) behind the front fairing on an XBs?

I don't know if the "don't carry it" approach will work everywhere, but it is worth checking out.

The tollways must have optical scanners that look up your license plate #, since if you have a pass in a rental car that you've haven't registered its plate # with the tollway, they still come after you.

I mount mine inside of the fly screen with velcro. I take it in and out of my pocket and stick it there when it's needed. It's right back in my pocket as soon as I pass the toll.

Well, our equivalent (macpass) anyway..

They must work differently from the passes that NY uses, those passes are some sort of RF and you can use your pass in any car and I know many people that do this so I know it works.

Too bad there isn't a little more room between the air cleaner cover and the air box.

I have yet to buy / use an easy pass, but when I get around to it
I had figured that I would put it in the empty well of my
inner airbox cover so it is hidden (I have a 9, so I do not have
an exhaust solenoid in that spot).

I don't carry mine anymore, no matter where I put it, it was hit and miss in NY. Now I just blow through, it will read my plate and charge my account.
