Good for you. That is a very nice bike. But, you have to get rid of those aerials, LOL. From one of the pics, it looks like your bike is some sort of string puppet. LOL Can't go wrong with black, have fun buying all your new accessories. BTW, I would wait before buying to much, once you start, it never ends. LOL

I never noticed how long the stock whips were until you mentioned it. Picking mine up on Thursday and am concerned about low hanging wires.

What is the customary replacement? The 12" rubber ducky type?

rsofa, congrats on the bike and welcome.

Where can I find shorter replacements?? I would prefer steel to the rubber duck type around 12" being a HamRadio guy I'm not keen on the way the rubber duck style antenna's usually work!
