Default My first bagger!

From sportbikes to Nightster to Streetbob to this. I bought her brand new a couple of months ago. She's got a thousand miles on her now and I couldn't help dressin' her up a bit. Now if I can just get rid of that hideous antenna and still have radio to work!

nice bike. I pushed my antenna back through the hole with the rubber grommet and zip tied to the frame. Works great in the city for me. Out of city rides I either play a cd or my phones music.

nice looking scoot....you can get a different antenna. I got some stubbies for my limited. I don't like the long antennas either. I think you can get one that can go in the fairing but i'm not sure how good they work.

I just did as well. After a few years on a Sporty I upgraded to a RKC. Bought used but I am loving the choice.

Nice looker. Nobody likes those long whip antennas. Don't know why Harley continues to put em out there. Guessing it helps sell the smaller aftermarket antennas.
