    the splitter box or multiplex box (proper term) will already be part of your bike and take care of al that for you, you need not worry about, as i said cut off the original mount and install the one shown in the picture and everything will fit and work just fine no need to get complicated

    Dumb question maybe but does your bike have a mute button and is it switched on to mute:think:

    nearby truck stop is the easiest and good selection of antenna's as well as hardware such as mounts ( tip down and quick connect adaptors for the antenna should you wish to use them) as well as repair ends. the repair end I used simply required cutting the cable at the oem mount (remove and discard the mount), this mount serves as repair end and mount combined and takes all types of antennas with a 3/8 " mount which makes it pretty univesal and simple to do. once you mount the antenna check your swr. if your bike originally used one antenna for both radio and CB you don't need to do anything else because it will have a multiplex box that does it for you.http://truckcitycbgps.com/Images/image_antenna_mounts/203EZ%20Lift%20and%20lay%20mount.JPGhttp://truckcitycbgps.com/Images/image_antenna_mounts/SM31%20Through%20up%20to%201%20inch%20hole%20mount.JPG

    bought my venture in 2005 met a couple in london who told me about the site and joined up, that i believe was before the crash. I did not realy get involved until a bit later though. just shy I guess

    without getting into a lot of details I too looked at every car like it was out to get me, But I soon got feeling comfortable in the saddle again and feel I have become a better and more alert rider because of it. Beside's short of sucide you don't get too decide how you leave this world but to a certian extent you do get to decide how you want to enjoy what it has to offer.

    Just for those who may not totally understand amps . think of it as a 5 gal pail compared to a 4 gal pail if all you need to carry is 3 gallons due to low demad (eg Fewer lights) both pails will do the job but if you need to carry 4 and 1/2 gallons due to high demad (eg more lghts) at a time only the 5 gallon pail will do the job, because the smaller pail would overflow.

    ! did that and I found my signals definitly flash much smoother:rotfl::rotfl:
  24. saddlebum
    I see this all the time working on transport trucks . the cause is almost always bad ground and so the light trys to get ground through the other lights. this cause a sort of feed back which in affect cancels out the other light. check and clean all your ground connections to the signal lights. a simple quick test to verify it is run a wire form bat neg to the ground side of the signal light. If it starts working normal you know for sure there is a ground issue in your signal light circuit
