How many people found out the reason they were not transmitting well on their 2010 bagger was because the antenna's were reversed during Dealer install.

The CB antenna is marked in small letters CB. It goes on the left side not like my 08 which was on the right.

On my 2011 RGU, the dealer told me that they would only fit one way... but I found they fit equally well either way. Plus, I didn't see any markings on either of the antennas or on the base. I wonder if this changed for the 2011 MY.

Never used the CB, Good Buddy
Although I did install them backwards, but didn't notice any change in the stereo reception.

CB antenna goes on the right on my 2011. It's marked at the base of the antenna.

That was the first thing I discovered after buying my '09 Ultra Classic.
