I am finally getting around to installing the new amp and speakers soon. I also have the BT line levelers and will install those at the same time. I have a 2015 RG that I added a chopped tour pack so I removed the antenna. I could put a shorty in there but I really don't like the looks at all. I bought some LED fillers for the holes so now I need to find the "best" option for my antenna. I am leaning to a powered antenna from BT or HD that goes in the fairing but I really haven't found any good reviews of any of them.
Do any of you have any suggestions here?
Thanks,
Pete

I did the same thing as Gooey2. Ran the stock antenna up inside the rear wheel well and along the frame (towards the fuel tank). Good enough for me and seems to pick up FM as well as two of my riding buddies who have the Harley fairing antenna install in their 2014 Street Glides.
Hanging a Cerwin-Vega AMP below the factory head had some negative impact on my FM reception, but not moving the antenna itself (at least not enough to dicker over).
We put an Antenna Concepts in fairing AM/FM antenna on my wives 14 SGS and she said the reception is better than the stock HD antenna. They are in Michigan.
