Why you ask? because some people like the option of being able to remove the fairing for around town cruising or bar hopping. How would an flhtc or flhtcu accomplish this?? it wouldn't, but a RKC and (for me) dead center fairing seem like a pretty good answer. I personally like the look of my RKC without windshield or fairing so quick detach is the only option.

First of all it's YOUR choice.

if you go with 6.5 you can go coaxal, triaxle, or component ( seperate tweeter and woofer with xovers) and you can always open up the hole to accept 6x9's

if you like 6x9's, get those.

Has anyone heard anything bad about the radio antenna on the Tsukayu batwing fairing?

I was just going to post about this. I have the Tsukayu and it is, by far, the absolute worst radio antenna I have ever had. The little piece of wire on my cheapo garage radio works better.



Anyone know of a better idea? I'm about ready to mount a car antenna between the saddlebags like the street glide uses and just have 2 things to plug in instead of one.

How true, I rode for years and "would NEVER have a windshield or anything of the likes on the bike". Well, 35 years later, lotsa windshields and 2 batwing fairings, I would never own a bike without one again.
Thats the funny thing about that word "never".......Be careful how you use it....

Check out the DIY sticky at the top of the Touring Forum in the last page or two about radio ants.
Some pretty good low cost options...
