"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ I put a powered antenna inside the fairing and the reception seems fine. Out of site, and cleans up the bike a bit. While on a trip last year, some asshole broke off my shorty antenna and left it lying on the ground by the bike, with the American flag still attached!

"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ The ones on my tourpac where cut off when I bought the bike. They work fine.
"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ Save your money instead of buying these short antennas just remove the stock and cut the bottoms of to whatever length that you like............
"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ I live and ride in the miami metro area, the reception is perfect, miami is as flat as a pankake not mountains or hills to deal with, it works 100% no difference..
"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ How is the reception, is it as good as with the whips or not as good? I'm thinking about doing the same thing and adding a booster unit if needed, so I'd like you know if I need the booster. Thanks.
"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ I just installed a shortie antenna, I bought it at the auto parts store and it cost $6.98 plus tax. I am sure that someone else has done it but I thought I would share anyways. At least the bike does not look like a remote control scoot...

"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ thanks ill try that
"DIY MODS" and TRICKS to SAVE $$$$$$ The best way to get at the nuts that attach the license bracket is to remove the tail light. First remove the lens, unplug the four blade connectors on the back, and then two bolts that attach the tail light reflector. Once the light is removed you have a large hole from which to access the area where the nuts holding the license bracket are located.
