Default CVO rear fender antenna options.Let's see solutions.

I have the CVO rear fender on my Street Glide and I am wanting options for relocating my antenna. I have tried the H-D Boom hidden antenna that goes into the fairing but I am unhappy with the results. I then fabricated a bracket to angle the stock SG mount so the stock whip followed the frame. This picked up alot of engine noise. I am hoping to find a solution so that I don't have to mess with anything when putting on my tour pak .

MY CVO antenna is hidden from the factory. Maybe replace fender and use new version from Harley?

I put the whip antenna inside the fairing. I tried running the whip along the frame and under the seat but no luck

I also tried mounting the stock antenna up around the frame with poor results. Just lately I purchased a flexible 14" antenna from O'Reilly's for $10. Installed it to bike and works great. It is like a wet noodle so when I put the tourpak on it just curves to shape and contacts the bottom of the tp. I put tape on the tp to eliminate rub marks. Worked great. Take tour pak off and antenna springs back to original shape.

I've been keeping an eye out for one like that. Nothing so far.
