Default Antenna thread

I have the original radio antenna on my trike. The other antenna hole is currently plugged. I have a guy making me a flagpole to fit in that spot. I need to know the thread size and depth of that hole so he can make it correctly. Any help?

be carefull of how big a flag you fly on there. it's only mounted to the tour pack.and who knows how strong it is there. i've thought about doing this myself to fly a small little flag.

Thanks for the input, maybe I need to rethink that. I do only want a small flag but I also don't want any damage.

I think you will be ok with a small flag. I have seen several people with flags attached to their antennas and they had no damage

I think the thread size is 6mm. In regard to the depth, put in a wire or something down in the hole of the antenna you have and measure how far it goes down.

Blaze Leather have flag poles that seem to be reasonably prices. Just an option.
