While not the cheapest for an insulated beverage container, one of the best is the Kleen Kanteen. Get one with a "cafe cap" and it should do the trick.

Lots of different sizes, so you can work out what's best for you. In case you're wondering how well they work, I filled mine (regular cap, not the "cafe cap") with ice last Sunday morning and forgot it in the tour pack. It still had a little bit of ice in it Tuesday evening when I went looking for something in the tour pack. Temps here in Chesapeake were ~79* on Sunday, 84* on Monday, and 82* on Tuesday.

Can't say how well it would do with the "cafe cap", but keeping ice for nearly three days in 80* weather works for me. Should be able to keep your coffee hot on a one day ride.

Never thought about using the guard holder. I purchase the lower fairing locking doors from Hog Trough which have a cup holder you can add to them. Works good for me and I use 5 days a week for my morning cup of coffee. Don't think I would want to reach behind me to try and grab a cup, much less put it back.

The one on the lower fairing is east to reach and put back. My Insulated cup fits into a coolly and then into the holder.

I found the contigo perfect. Fits just right and can be use with both hot and cold beverages. Lid automatically closes and opens with the push of a button. I use mine all the time.

Thermos 2465 is much like the Contigo one, someone else posted up about this a while back and had many others say it works great too. Amazon, about 17 bucks. Hope this helps

Here's another idea for a drink holder: http://www.leadermotorcycle.com/CTGY/drink.html
This is the entire mount and travel mug (or you can get it with an insert that will hold water bottles, pop cans, etc...
