Very well done and excellent placement. Have it powder coated black this Winter....or chrome it. Did you place the antenna inside the fairing and hardwire the power?

Made a bkt that I velcrowed to the fairing, if you look you can see it just below the center of the radio. picked up better for me there instead on in the fairing. St. wiring I havn't done yet I've heard a few horrow stories about that.[:-]

Very nice!

I wonder if it would work the same for a Rody XT (XM) receiver...???... I bought one that mounts to the top of my front master cylinder, but it looks kinka "goldwing-like"....

Nice bracket! Lot better than the stuff I've seen so far. I've got the Roady XT and I bought one of those chrome mounts that secure near the grips. I put my antennae inside the fairing on top of the radio. So far so good. You should patent and market it for HDs!!!!!

[color=#0033FF]How about making one for the Roady XT?

Your's looks good. I'm sure you can make some extra rent money making those brackets for the rickies with no lab.

I bought the Ram Mount for the Roady XT, marine grade, (stainless hardware), and adjustable.
Want to say Mount for XT was about $35.00.
Hardwire kit from Hoon Electric 29.95. Pull outer fairing and wire it to the cig lighter wires. no static.

Gilbos your mount looks great. Nice custom slotting job with the E-Mill.
