It is a quick and easy install and I've seen no difference in reception at all. A much cleaner look as well.

I have a 13SG instead of the 14 and I did not buy the $70 In-fairing antenna, instead I went to Auto Zone and bought a 10" stubby Black antenna (looks like the Harley one just a lot shorter) and put it on the bike. I works very well (don't listen to much radio-baseball/football while I'm working on it) so I didn't think the extra $$$$ was worth it. Like most I listen to the IPOD or the MP3 Player. The stubby cost $10 and tax and you hardly notice it cause it's so short.

I'm looking into extended bags and fender which will force me to use hidden antennas as I won't want to do any cutting on the new fender. Has anyone used either of these on their '14 yet?
