Default Use of Radio
Curious how many use the Radio/CD on your bagger?

Do you use Radio, CD or mp3?

I use AM, FM, CB, WB, & CD. Don't have an MP3 player, or I'd use it too. Sometimes tunes, sometimes talk radio. Listen to the CB on the Interstate. It's probably 60/40 with the radio on/off.

I've got my Ipod loaded with all my favorite biker music. It just couldn't get any better.
