Reckless fairing
I need to know what marine cover they use on reckless fairings. I just got my Pioneer deh2500 stereo and polk db691 6x9 speakers, waiting on tune trapper antena, and need that paticular marine cover. Thanks for the replys.

Damn UltraNutz....you get around on the stereo section...lol....Really cool of you to help us all out like this!
So I see Double Deuce mention this Tune Trapper antenna. That reminds me...What is a GOOD antenna for inside the faring? Everyone says the ones in the faring are junk? I have a removable tour pack and when I have it on without the screw on whip obviously I get nothing. I would like to get a good antenna for inside the fairing and ditch the whip altogether but I have heard guys cry after spending $50 on what is supposed to be a good antenna.

I know Reckless has the marine cover, but I really didn't want to buy it from them. Lets just say they didn't give me all the details when I bought a fairing from them. Unless someone knows the brand name, I will have to eat crow and buy it anyway.

scootinz.. in all honesty, I join the crowed of others who haven't had much luck with in-fairing antennas. Most of the folks I know are getting away from the whip and putting a shorty rubber antenna located between the saddlebag and rear fender. If I'm not mistaken, you can go down to your local auto parts store and buy one and it will screw right onto the existing nub for the antenna you have now. I know HD makes a relocation kit for the antenna with mounts and all.

Thanks UntraNutZ...thought I would ask....Yeah I have seen guys running a shortie whip that basically sits bent inder the tour pack. I really was trying to avoid that. Years ago I found a pretty short rubber antenna for a boat I had that woked pretty good. Maybe I will look around at some marine places. I liked it because it was short and not so big on the boat.
Someone mentioned somewhere that HD has a new faring antenna out that SUPPOSEDLY works. Have not looked for it yet but either way I'm not looking to pay HD prices on an antenna...I hate getting bent over on their crap. Especially when it don't work!
