No Terry, Mojitos in Key West! I wish I was going too! Enjoy your ride down there! Ride safe. Hoist!

Thanks Hoist, we'll think of you too! 

[Midnight Rider]

Thanks Terry, wish you were going too!  Start planning next year now! 
I'll be sure to think of you while I'm sitting there with a  watching the sunset. 

Bob...my problem is this time of year is filled with Faculty promotions at work...I've got 16 boxes filled with f'in' paper for that process...don't usually get free from that burden until mid March, thus no Daytona either...

Work sometimes seriously interferes with my leisure time...5-7 more years and I'll have all the time I need on my hands!!  For now, I'll have to live vicariously through you and Ilene.

You guys be careful going down...watch out for those blue hairs!!  When are you rolling out?  Be sure and take plenty of pics, and give Ilene our best!!

Got the SEUC back in one piesce with new tins and OCD add ons, so I got my J&M antennas mounted and they work great as well as look much better than my Freedoms, which in my case were just to limber.

Th new ones are great though, thanks for the heads up along the way from everyone else that has posted here.

Rog,
Glad to hear you like 'em.  They definitely look and perform better than anything I've ever used.

I installed the J&M's over the weekend. I don't know about performance yet but they do look better.

Excellant, I was looking at a pic of a melon with stock antennas and the sort of look out of place now.  The J&M's are great, you'll love them.

AJ,
You'll find out that they perform as good as they look.  J&M has produced another winner.

I got to use the CB function yesterday on a charity run with my new J&M shorty antennas. 

I talked to both Harley riders and Goldwing guys. They all agreed that my transmissions were clearer than with the whips and Freedom rubber shorties. I also heard more conversations than I usually hear on the CB too.
All in all I would say the J&M shorties are the best way to go!
(FYI I did not use a SWR meter or remove any wire,just installed)

What channel/s were you on?

[Tbone]

What channel/s were you on?

Rog,
I had my first chance to try the J&M's on our Key West trip, the whole group stayed on channel 3 the entire time and they worked great, both sending and receiving.  I listened a lot on channel 19 from here to Tampa and back and the reception was good, I didn't try transmitting.

Bob, thanks for the info.  Sounds like a winner.  We just need some weather up here to ride in.  El Nino has been pixxin' on us relentlessly for weeks.

[VaEagle]

I was working on Channel 5 that is what my group uses for runs.

I didn't have a chance to try other channels,sorry.

Hi Guys,

I am regarding to buy the shorty antennas from J&M as I can see that everyone is happy with them.

I am tired of bending my whips before entering the garage.

Did you buy them directly from J&M or do you have a better tip for me?

Don't forget I need to have them shipped to Belgium, so a web shop would be better than a dealers shop.

Thanks for your reply.

Have a nice day.

Phil,

I am not a J&M user but I have another alternative that I and a lot of members went with
Freedom Cycles     out of Reno, Nevada has a nice pair of antennas
I will attach a picture and link to their website:  http://www.freedomcyclereno.com/   scroll to the bottom for pic and info
If you have interest talk with James or Brad - Good Guys (775)358-3500

The pic of antenna on my scoot.....sorry for the dusty tour pak but a good pic of antennas

I would definitely do the JM antennas having both.  The Freedoms bend too much in the warmer weather and the JM is much Cleaner.

However, if you want to do the Freedoms, I will gladly sell you my take offs (one Season) for $20.00 and you pay the post price.

Having said that, I'd still do the JM's but a good deal on the Freedoms if you want.
