antenna dilema

[rock lobster]

Anyone out there know what is needed to relocate the antenna after adding a tour pack?, Just installed one but had to remove the antenna to do so, would just like to find an extension then add an antenna on the trunk

I was able to just bend mine.
What's needed is a way to adapt the connectors to a different type.

my radio is off & the antenna is in my L. bag.

And this helps by telling us which bag to put it in?
I and others realize some of us donot use the radio, but some do.
Please help a guy out here.

Try to PM Jhox. He did a proper antenna location some time back.
Also mtcgun has a tourpack with the antenna mounted to the box

Originally I did the same and relocated the antenna under the rear part of the saddle. It hurt reception and limited to close stations. Finally I just put it back on and bend it a little when I put the trunk on.

I put a Givi trunk on mine. I can get 1 half and 1, 3/4 helmet in and close the lid.
The antenna is in the clear too.
And its color matched, Black!
