Great looking shark.

Two questions:

- Where di you get the short stubby antenna for the TP?

Thanks

Thanks for the kind words!

The Fans Are Jason Fan Werks, Don't care much for the copy cat fan guy. BUT yes I rattle canned as they were black originally.

- Where di you get the short stubby antenna for the TP?

I have a internal FM antenna inside my fairing. The shorty is fake just to add some sleek style. Amazon, Wally World, or any auto car joint of your choice should carry them.

Thanks for the info. Do you recall what paint you used and the color? I'm going to be getting a pair shortly (unfortunately Jason's aren't available anymore). I like the look of yours better than the flat black.

I like the antenna also. I also have a seperate antenna but thought that little one dressed up the back better than my exposed stud.

I had a feeling, your were gonna ask what paint. Give me a day to try and located the can brand & color. It might take a day to find it. Lol

My third Shark so far and I am thinkin it'll be my last. Can't wait for that 117" engine kit to get here. I'm sure I'll do other things to it as time goes on. But I've wanted a CVO Shark since I saw my first one back in 2009. Got my first Shark around the same time.

2015 CVO Road Glide Ultra.



Picked it up with 6,400 miles on it. Fixin all the stuff the PO did wrong first. Then I'll start makin it mine. Native Baggers will be tapped at some point for a big front tire.
