Patent ID: 8887357

Claim:
A removable handle for use by a passenger riding on a motorcycle, comprising: a base; at least one motorcycle style handlebar having a distal end coupled to the base, and a free proximal end that forms the terminus for a gripping portion; a locking mechanism including: a suction cup element formed on the underside of the base; and a locking lever, that when actuated in a first mode, is capable of establishing a locking vacuum between the suction cup element and a motorcycle body surface, the locking lever further configured to unlock said handle from a motorcycle body surface when actuated in a second mode to defeat the locking vacuum whenever one has been previously established therebetween, the locking lever being configured to be positioned within a recess and thereby located below a surface of the base whenever said handle is locked so that said handle cannot be inadvertently unlocked while said handle is in use.
