Default Ultra Antenna's
Which side is the CB and which side is the FM? The antenna's are marked but the mounts aren't.

I looked in the manual and it didnt say.

Thanks

when you are standting at the back of the bike looking at the antennas the CB is on the RIGHT this is important to have it right as you can damage your cb if you get it wrong
if you still are not sure go to the dealer and look at a ultra

This is correct, look at it from the rear and CB is on the right.

Yes, looking from the back forward, the right side is the CB.

the CB is on the starboard side, the stereo is on the port side.
