After years of travelling up & down M1 to Dublin, I finally found a convenient means of carrying the 1 euro needed for the toll.
Lift the spriong loaded flap of the fuel tank filler, & pop the 1 (or 2) euro coin underneath it. Drop the flap on it & it is pinned there, ready for easy retrieval even with gloves on.

Stop, turn off bike, remove gloves, find money, put change back away, put gloves on, start bike and go....

It worked at the Dartford Tunnel (eventually!!)
I keep trying on the Humber bridge but they are tight feckers up here and would rather have a big queue than miss out on the £1.20 from every bike. :(
 
On a 650 GS single the stop, take off gloves, open jacket find purse, give in money, put purse back in pocket, zip up, gloves back on, is required a the petrol cap is behind me and at a 45 degree angle to ground. I suppose I could be even slower if I had to get off bike and chace after my toll money:augie
