Default XM RoadyHolder for Harley

I am thinking of adding a Roady XT to my Road Glide. Anyone seen or used a hoonhardware roadyholder? The price is alot less than the Kuriy stuff. It looks super simple and has alot of positive reviews on some websites. But I trust the opinion of my fellow hd forums folk.

Can you post pics of the roady and the cabling? I don't want a mess of cables :-) thanks!

a21m - did you get an antenna with a shorter cable?

I like that mount - I'm just wondering how you dealt with all the antenna cable?

Pipe -

I think BIGDaddy has something very similar on his RoadKing. It mounts in a "Dash Bag" on the tank and plays through a set of J&M spks - the chrome handlebars mounted ones. He loves it. I know that when we rode up to NIagra falls in '04, he had no issues with it & was I stuck searching for radio stations or using my Nomad Jukebox MP3 player. One really cool thing for him was that he was able to listen to the NASCAR race while we rode. Seems like it was the Brickyard 400. Glad I did not have it for that race, that pansy rainbow fruitloop car won! [:@]

I have my Roady II mounted to the inner fairing with the mount that it comes with. The antenna is under the fairing on top of the metal case for the factory radio. All excess wiring is coiled up inside the fairing.

Here is a pic.



Regards,

Bill

Bill - is there an auxillary audio input on the back side of the factory radio, or just the one on the front?

Phil,

I never looked for an aux at the back of the radio, but I don't think there is from what I have read here. I just use the FM Modulator most of the time, and have a 1 ft. cord that will go from the Roady to the front Aux. if I find that there is interference with the FM station I am using. I live out in the sticks, so that doesn't hapen very often.

Regards,

Bill

Well that's cool. I did not realize it had an integrated FM modulator. Is it agile or fixed to a single FM frequency?
