Edit: If you want to try to repair the one that is there, take the connector off and put it back on the cable. The big thing to watch is that none of the strands of the braided shield touch the center conductor. You can try to tape it up or heat shrink it but it's a band-aid at best.

If the cable got pulled out of the screw on connector it should be able to be replaced pretty easy. A CB Radio or electronics type shop should be able to crimp a new one on there. We replaced them by the hundreds on the old school installed cell phones.

From the year that you listed, The radio must be the H/K radio.
My advice is to call Iron Cross Radio and talk to them about the antenna connections.
I have found them to be stand up guys and will help any rider with the H/K radio.
They can also let you know if they can improve the radio and if shop repairs are required, their work is very good and reasonable cost.
It costs nothing to try to get information. They know the H/K radio.
