NVFRC: RE: XM antenna question

He grinned. Don't you know what that means?

And in fairness, he didn't ask if it was OK to shorten it, or if we thought
it was a good idea... he asked if anyone knew how. Your answer didn't answer
his question, so maybe YOU are the one being the "smart A$$ D-head" by "just
passing out some info" that nobody asked for in the first place.

Just passing on some info. You don't have to be such a smart A$$ D-head
about it.

Geez, I checked and you're right!

Now - I've gotta change my oil with Honda HP4, put the stock can back on,
remove a shitload of mods, and get the damn bike to a Honda dealer for the
past dozen services I've done myself since I ran across a whole pile of
recommendations when I got out the manual to make sure I took the side cowl
off following the recommended procedure so that I could replace the
perfectly functioning but {gasp} shortened XM antenna!

Thanks a lot!

I think that XM recommends that you don't shorten the antenna lead.

Just cut and splice it, that's what I did for mine. If you're not
particularly experienced with a soldering iron, you've got 25' to practice
with!

Hello all,

I am trying to tidy up my XM installation. I need an antenna with a shorter
lead than the standard 20 something feet.

Does anyone out there know where I might find such a thing?

Thanks to all in advance for any information.

Jerry
