Review on πŸ” Top Performance: 5" Real Carbon Fiber Aluminum Short Antenna with Polished Silver Finish and Universal Screws Base by Albert Tucker

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Looks good but bad reception.

FLHX '08 - All Harley radios are basically the same. The antenna optimizes my scooter so I don't always shy away from the factory antenna, but the reception is poor at best. Anyone familiar with radio waves knows that a short antenna just won't give good reception no matter how it's built, a decent quarter wave is ideal for VHF. I use Bluetooth for city breaks and short trips, but when I go on a long tour where the radio is essential for weather and traffic, I put the stick mast back on.

Pros
  • Pleasant
Cons
  • Older Model
