Just waiting for my new HD shorties to arrive in the mail. Hopefully they don't come with brewer's droop.

My buddy bought a telescopic one off of e-bay, and it work's great! I think he paid $17.44 including shipping! It really looks like it was made for his street glide, and when he use's his t-bag, he lowers it out of the way, and still get's good reception!

What is brewer's droop???

I have an HD short antenna. I like it, but it does have a **** eyed tip, which seems to be temporarily fixed and then goes back to **** eyed...

IF you can't find anything else and settle on these guys, don't buy the fiberglass. I bought three, 2 for the ultra and 1 for my car which snapped half doing 70 mph. the ultras have been glued and are still loose. Three separate emails to customer service went unanswered. I wasted over $50 with this company. Hope you don't do the same. Just my 2 cents, take it for what its worth!!
