I went ordered an extra antenna for my bike, they said there is not a bracket out yet to mount it. Anyone know of one? I think it looks better with 2 antennas versus one. Or do I have to fab up my own bracket?
JJ; Which antenna did you order (HD vs. after-market)? My guess is, if you want it to look right, fab one...JMO.
I run the Boom hidden with y-cable connected to after-market auto antenna strapped under fairing. Works well, but not the same application as your idea w/dual antennas on rear. How about the other touring bike(s)...antenna mount for limited work?
It's just the stock HD antenna Iceman. You know, where that antenna plug is back there on the right, I think it would look better with 2 antennas . Basically, I just want to do something to the bike that doesn't cost anything LOL
Gotcha...I'd say, as you probably already know, removing the Left mount and making a "reverse" template for the Right/new 1/2. If I recall, on my 09 stock mount, it's a 2-bolt, 90-degree angle bracket. I bet you can make something that looks good...keep us updated on the design.
I bought a new mount, cut it apart and welded it back together so that it was a mirror image of itself. Still havent got around to installing it yet though. I thought I was the only one who liked dual antennas
