You could consider finding a compatible "Stubby" antenna (e.g., 1 or 2 inches). It doesn't solve the mount still being seen, but it would reduce the obstruction of the OEM antenna.

Over the years, on a variety of big bikes (for touring), I've had good results from Saddlemen products.
I've used this one on the rear seat, but had to put protective film material on the top of...
I've examined those "shims" and FWIW, I believe that one could find some hard rubber and have it cut and finished (edges) to fit in the slot. I realized how loose they were when not under pressure,...
Congrats! Ride safe and have fun!

So I stopped by the semi-local BMW/Ducati dealership this weekend to check out the following:
> K1600 GTL
> K1600 B
> R18 (Base and Touring)
Following are some of my observations:
> K1600...
I've been reading up on the full dress model... and stopped "considering" it when I saw that the weight came in at just over 900 lbs. I'm shifting gears (sorry) and looking now at the 1600 Grand...
Interested in more details re: the "nickel mod" - thx in advance
I was thinking of buying these... mount at top of saddlebag... touch activated... battery powered... ...
Glad you are recovering.... and not afraid to get back on the horse. As a former motor patrolman told me a long time ago... "Dress for the fall...." (not the season).
I'm pretty happy with OEM speaker on my '16 Deluxe. With a Half-helmet on, I can hear pretty good quality sound at 70+ mph with the volume at about 12-14. If I'm wearing my Full-face helmet, I used...
On my 2016 Deluxe (bought 2017), I found a gently used Saddleman seat that on the "Net' didn't show fitment for a 2016. The person I bought it from stated that it had come off of a 2016. So I rolled...
Beartooth is an incredible ride.... I long for a return to do that all over again. Safe travels!!
Yup... I too think it a great mix of protection and style...

FWIW... 6", 7", etc. any stock shield height in that range certainliy looks cool... but doesn't afford much in the way of protection, especially if one is going to go long rides at higher speeds. I...
I have the same setup on my '16 F6B Deluxe and like them a lot. I have a shorter inseam (29.5") so having the pegs closer makes for a nice riding position when compared to other options that put the...
No reverse on F6B in US. At just under 900 lbs.... one has to be very strategic about parking.
Sounds like similar symptoms! I had a small USB Flash Drive attached and used a thin strip of Guerilla Tape to "secure" the drive to the socket. Also then Guerilla Taped the assembly to the roof...
Since day one of owning my F6B Deluxe, I've had a small USB Flash Drive connected to the USB plug (on a wire) in the left-side saddlebag for playing MP3 files (music). During my ride today -- after...
If anyone else is interested in an OEM seat (removed after only 500 miles - "brand new") off of a 2016 F6B Deluxe, I have one for sale. $100 plus quote for shipping based on your Zip Code and if...
What to expect? Well, for you... a really smooth, linear acceleration experience... for your buddy... a lot of exhaust sound and possible breaking of something depending on how hard you both are...
Merry Christmas & Happy Holidays to everyone.... Peace & Goodwill towards all people... and hopes for significantly better times in 2021!!
