Road Book Holder

Does anybody have any experience with Free to Ride Road books?


RB730 - Electric Roadbook Holder - F2R











We might need it this year, so I am looking for electrical road book.
Any other electrical would do.
It must be big enough to use 145 mm wide road book.
If someone know for some used ones, also interested.

Please for some answers. Thank you.

Hi,

I am looking for a roadbook holder too. This one grab my attention, but I can't give you more informations about it. Sorry.

For now, I decided to go cheaper and smaller :
The Motorcycle Media Reader Offers Site

I called them and have been told that it could hold 4 or 5 sheets of A4 size paper, so I ordered it.
I hope it will be pactical and water resistant, as I have been told over the phone that purchaser don't usually buy the dedicated covers (which likes like basic zip frozen bags to my eyes)

Cheers

I have had one of these for a couple of years (bought two dedicated covers and have just changed over to the second one) - use it mainly for rallies. Will hold 3/4 A4 pages but can be a bit of a pain changing pages over if it is wet so I use Tyvek waterproof paper if I am using several pages.

Thanks for the feedback Grim

I just looked for Rain Paper, I didn't knew about that before. Found some on the web for 48e/200sheets + 16e for the dedicated pen.

Can't wait to try all that stuff.

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
