2010 FLHXSE - Is your antenna working loose?
« on: October 14, 2010, 02:46:30 PM »

My antenna keeps working loose. 

I discovered this by accident the first time around and finger tightened it.

A few weeks later, I checked and it had worked its way loose again.

Does the antenna supposed to come with a set screw  :nixweiss:, that maybe I'm missing?  Or should I simply try some locktite?

Thanks.

No set screw that I can recall.

Every time I'd check, mine would be loose. Used some Lock-tite, no longer coming loose.

No worries here. 


Could always get rid and replace with a digital antenna?    :nixweiss:

I'm guessing he means an antenna that mounts inside the fairing....possibly powered.....

Look at Dakota Digital or Tune Trapper. :2vrolijk_21:

Heard a few bad reviews on the dakota and it's pricey....Tune Trapper works well--had that on the last bike and ordering one for the new bike as well.

The Dakota ran me $75 and get's rid of that mast to hand flags from.  Perfect solution IMO.
