Biketronics, 3rd party or stock antenna
About to do an install of a new HU on my 02 Ultra. I got the BT install kit and it comes with a faring antenna. Anyone using this? Is a 3rd party better? I already have the standard antenna on the tour pack as well.

I asked about the "antenna" in their kit. Its literally just a wire... works but not as good as the Amped aftermarket versions like the Hawgtenna, with the full whip antenna still being the best of the three.

I have a 2011 ultra classic cvo. I made the tour pack detachable and ended up putting a j&m cb/fm antenna under the fairing.
I did this because I couldn't find a good way to mount my whip antenna. The mounts that I used on my previous ultra classic wouldn't work on the cvo. (The ones that come with the tp quick detach kit).
And I don't want to lose the covers between the frame and the bags.
Been a couple years now though.. Are they making the parts to do this these days? Or has someone found a way?
The hidden antenna isn't that good, I wouldn't mind doing away with it in favor of the whips.
