Anyone one have an antenna, mount, and cable they could part with? I installed a cd player in my bike but I can't get any radio stations without an antenna and cds skip too much.

Mounted the XM antenna (GXM-30) for the Garmin Zumo 500 today. Used a Kuryakyn inspection sticker plate (part #9168) mounted to the right side mirror post. Drilled two 5/32" holes in the Kury plate, using the Garmin antenna's steel baseplate as a template. Screwed the baseplate to the antenna from below (screws & baseplate provided with the GXM-30 antenna). Used two screws and nylon locking nuts to secure the baseplate to the Kury plate. Screwed the right side mirror post through the Kury plate's mounting hole. Easy installation, works great, looks good and is pretty secure. Pics below. Now it's time to go out riding & enjoy the XM radio.............

Wow its big! any sugestions on where to mount the GXM 30. Can this go under the fairing? PZ [ATTACH]34495[/ATTACH]

Does anyone know who will tune an antenna in the Columbus, Ohio area? Thanks

I'm just venting here unless someone can give me some good advise! I have the Garmin 550 with the GXM-30 puck for my XM needs. Everything was fine until I took the bike to the car wash last Saturday. I never spray water directly on the unit but it does get wet. Now I get a message that says check your XM antenna and I get nothing. The weird thing is when I start the bike after a long downtime XM works. If I stop for gas and turn off the bike the XM antenna quits. If this keeps up, I'm getting on E-Bay for a replacement.

I thought I had read a post where someone mounted the satellite antenna under the fairing, but I can't find it now. 1. Has anyone done this with success? 2. If so, have you been out on the road where there is only signal from the satellite and not from terrestrial repeaters. Thanks

Hey Guys, Does anyone have a reputable company they would suggest to get this GXM Antenna from, for under $200? Thanks, Rick

A Radio Antenna and CB power box & wiring are on Ebay this week and listed under the heading of Yamaha Royal Star Venture. I know that some of you are interested.

I just installed a new Firestik antenna and fold down bracket. I am in the garage and cannot get reception on either the radio or CB. I can hear static in the speakers. Is the problem that I am inside the garage?
-
Does anyone have a good suggestion on where I can get a bracket to hold my antenna on my '83? I've added a the OEM radio to the standard bike. I have the OEM antenna, but no bracket. I don't really have any way to fabricate one, and from what I've been able to see at Flatout Motor Sport, they don't sell the OEM anymore. So any help would be great! Thanks~

I get sporadic radio and CB usage that floats in and out. I also suspect that I'm not getting much range on my CB transmission and radio reception. I'm pretty sure it is the antenna cable/duplexer. does anyone have a good extra one for sale or trade. -
I am having trouble tightening my antenna to the base. The black plastic piece which houses the female portion of the antenna mount screws on to the base seemingly all the way and then won't tighten up. The male thread sticking up from the base into the antenna starts to spin. Is this normal and if not, is there any way to fix it? Looks like it's sealed. Thanks Kevin -
Help! I broke the CB antenna off. I wanted to just loosen the nuts and lower the antenna, so a bike cover would fit without cutting holes in it. The nuts were really tight, probalby corroded in place. I guess that I just put too much pressure on the wrenches and snapped the antenna off. Just a very sad experience! Does anyone have one for sale now or know where I can find one? Looks bad without it too! Thank You! Nemo. -
Thanks to this Forum for leading me to an E-bay sale of a C B Antenna. I bought the pair, so now will have the Radio Antenna for sale. Amen4AA, among others, asked if one would be for sale. I will ask $70 for it. You can E-mail me at owenjean1@msn.com. Owen.

While trying to tighten my radio antenna on my 99 RSV I accidently tightened the wrong nut and snaped the antenna off the mounting nut. Has anyone ever done this? Is there a cheaper fix then the $100 replacement? Or does anyone have a spare mast lying around? HELP!!!! Big Mike

Hi everyone For some reason unknown to me, I seem to have lost my antenna tip, that is the part that is up from the black device on the antenna. It seems to have affected my cb because I can no longer hear anything on it. The allen screw was stripped while I was losing it. Could I just replace the top part with a small whip antenna that are sold at auto parts or does it need to be OEM? Don
-
I think I found why my antenna won't tighten down properly. It looks like the base bolt that screws up into the plastic base of the antenna is slightly bent, probably not allowing the plastic base to tighten down properly. Can I straighten it out or does the part need to be replaced????
-

I take my radio antenna off so I can put my cover on the bike and have a nice place to tuck it away. Well of course this morning I forget to put it back on and for some reason did not play radio all day. I get home and go to put cover on and no antenna anywhere. So I just need the antenna itself and not the mount. So if anyone has one please PM me with a price. My zip code is 48506 for shipping...Thanks.

Hope it worked? Still in progress of completion. left bag is not on it right now. had an opening problem. There is a wire for teh antenna but it is getting relocated cause i took off the trunk. It will get paint this fall. Thinking Metal Flake orange?
-
I have an 85 trunk that I want to put on my 84. I have the trunk and the bracket that holds it but I'm missing the bar that holds the antenna. Does anyone have one that will fit they'd be willing to part with? I was wondering if the Mk2 would be the same. 84 is shorter so won't reach past the edge of the trunk and is not attached the same way. Wayne

So There i was, home for the weekend. Dad and I are trying to get my bike streetable. It was a salvage bike xvz1300 m/m. I got it torn down. Tank off, fairing off, lights off, seats off. I replaced the headlight bulb, air filters, and battery. I took off the trunk (was destroyed) and removed the six disc and six disc cable. I removed the antenna for the CB and the CB from under the trunk. I then tested the radio system (what was left front speakers). The radio worked fine (even though the control is cracked). I then proceeded to take the cable from the rear of the bike and re-routed it (being extremely careful). i took it all the way out to the gas tank mount and routed it on the other side of the battery. Then dad and i went to his work and machined a nice bracket to mount the antenna down on the crossmember between the saddlebags from a chunk of aluminum. I put the lights fairing seat gas tank and EVERYTHING else back on the bike. I start it up to check it out (started AWESOME) and the radio ................. didn't work. It turned on, and....... Static.. FRIGGIN STATIC, So then ithought well ill try other stations. .NOTHING. static... So i touched the antenna and the tone of the static changed indicating that the antenna was still attached. So after 2 days of work and feeling damn good about myself, excited abotu riding.. and now i have to tear it apart to find out why. DO you have any idea why?

HAPPY EASTER EVERYONE. I recently lost my cb antenna and Owen was kind enough to give me his. However, his antenna seems to have a different mount and I need to change the whole antenna instead of just the top half. I looked under the trunk and I can see the cable going into the cb box but how do I go about unplugging the cable as it seems to be up inside the box.? DO i need to uninstall the trunk or is there a way to lower the cb unit easily ETC? Thanks for assistance in advance. jb BTW I met Jesus yesterday in Houston Jesus the new Venture Rider in Houston that is. Seems he is a lurker here. He just got a new 2007 Venture in Janurary. Says he will start posting here this week. He is looking for a slightly shorter windshield for his 2007. He has a sweet ride.

Does anyone know the thread size of the CB antenna base on the '07 Venture?
