    Adding XM to Bike

    Looking to add XM Radio to my Bike. What are my best options on receivers and Mounting options? Looking for actual pictures if possible. Thanks.

    I just put my XM in cubby on left , plugged into 3.5 plug and placed anttena under fairing.
    For power used a USB to 5 volt plug made for XM radios .
    Really easy to do.

    Thanks Shortleg, What receiver are your using? I have a old Delphi sky/fy unit that plugs into a boombox, but does not have any 3.5 plug capability.

    I have the Stratus7 in my left cubby.Fits in there with room to spare as I have my garage door opener in there up on the left side.Just plug it into the 3.5 plug and I have the anttena up on the center dash under the windscreen.orks great and I have a base station in the shop I can move the head unit to when I'm not riding.

    I ama using an older Roady model that has a 3.5 plug on the
    mount that the radio plugs into. It also has the ability to adjust the volume to that
    plug so it is the same volume when you go from device to device.
