RE: SG rubber antenna

Oh , I forgot to mention that I live in the woods, I'm sure that doesn't help.

RE: SG rubber antenna

I got the 19 dollar amplified internal antenna at pep boys. It works better than the original whip.

AutoZone for $7. It works well, although I haven't had the bike in extremely remote areas yet.

Check out a hidden antenna. Tunetrapper on E-bay. I lost a little reception but still works great and cleans things up.

x2. The radio reception with that installed was awful even in town. I ended up putting the stock whip back on but I cut it down so it wasn't at eye level any longer.

RE: SG rubber antenna

I dumped the ugly whip antenna and put in a Dakota Digital amplified antenna that's hidden in the fairing. It costs a heck of a lot more than a standard rubber antenna, but it works great and finishes off the clean look of a Street Glide.
