Just a couple of thoughts. Relocate the ground to your Head Unit. Sometimes the ground wire can pick up the noise if its grounded in a location close to the ground of the noise making devices. Try to maintain a good seperation between speaker / antenna wires and power wires. Noise can be induced onto speaker wires if the run parallel to power wires. Try to overlap these wires at 90* angles.

Don't know what you guys are talking about, but I have the Phase 7 headlight with Kuryakyn and HD running/brake LED lights, and have had no problems with my FM reception until I put the Soundstream amp in my fairing.

This winter in getting rid of that amp. More problems than it's worth.

I have a Biketronic Amp but the issue started after the LED Headlight install.....What I may do is disconnect the inner fairing antenna and just use the rear mast and see what happens.....

Is your faring antenna electronically amplified?

Nope, sticks to the inner fairing ( no electronic box) and the plug goes into the radio, so I don't think it will make a difference but I'll try unplugging it anyway......Use ACC position on switch, no interference, go to Ignition with LED light on, it starts....It's the light!!!!

Interesting. Stock radio here too, and I only started having problems after installing a class D amp.
