Thumbs up CB radio

Brian....

I'm using a Cobra handheld CB/weather radio that I found through Sierra electronics about about 4 years ago, together with the helmet mounted mic and headset. The CB mounts on an adapter plate that fastens to the clutch reservoir on the left handlebar. There is a harness that enables you to use a Push To Talk (PTT) switch attached to the left handlebar via a velcro tab. For power, I installed an accessory outlet in the right fairing liner and use the bike's internal battery to power the radio. Using the "rubber duck" antenna mounted on the CB, I've probably got a mile or better range with it, very nice when riding with my wife on her Goldwing or with other friends. If you have any questions, post and I'll try to answer.
