antennas
I bought a few months ago a 2001 Ultra Classic. It has the two antennas on the tour pack. I want to remove the CB one as I will never use it and maybe replace the radio one with a stubby one.
Which antenna is the CB one? Left or right side? The one on the right side has a large spring above the mount while the other on doesn't.
Thanks for any insight!

Good ideas! Never thought about just cutting to shorten. They just really a tall whips and really wobble at idle as the bike shakes a lot. Figure to remove the CB on but cut down the radio antenna for better looks.
Did cutting down effect reception much? I actually don't listen to the radio much anyway. I have a few old cassette tapes that I play. Would be interested in streaming but the radio and bike are 2001 and don't have that capability.
