I'm looking to get stronger radio reception from my 2011 CVO Street Glide. Is there a way to boost the antenna strength ?

There are a few amplified radio antenna's on the market but I do not know how well they work. Maybe some one with one installed will recommend one. You can also do a search on Goggle, I think J&M makes one.

Replace the antenna with the older version whip antenna made by Harley.

     Either that, or move closer to a big city with lots of powerful stations.

Seriously, if going to an amplified antenna, be careful that you don't just wind up amplifying the noise.  Some of the lower priced and less sophisticated amplified antenna's available for cars were famous for just making the noise louder at greater distances.  Consult a real audio expert before hanging your hat on a particular amplified antenna.

I solved the problem when out in the boondocks through use of the CD player or my iPod.  Much better than commercial radio anyway.  Or you could do satellite radio.

XM is a great way to go.
