That antenna install - while very inventive - simply cannot work well.

Put me in the group of Harley's second generation hidden antenna working as well, if not better, than the shorty one included with the '11 cvo streetglide (and the upside down one in the pic). Got lucky I guess.

Funny, one of the members here ( I apologize for not remembering but I've been through a bit since then) called me on the way to Sturgis saying he was in the area and wanted to stop by for a beer (my place in Indiana). We crack a few cold ones and he says his ribbon antenna isn't working for chit (second gen same as I have). We pull the fairing and the install that Harley did was a complete JOKE. I re-did the install and he called me saying it worked great.

Dunno but mine works fantastic ...

I guess I have the 2nd gen in the '15...seems to be better than the HD version I installed in the '11

What is the best hidden antenna to install in the fairing. I want to remove the tour pack with the antenna attachached.

Are you aware that the SEEG is set up to easily let you remove the TourPak and reinstall the antenna to the existing mount at the left side (where you disconnect the antenna lead when removing the TP)?  In case you don't know, you just unscrew the coaxial adapter to expose the fitting where you can screw in the antenna.

Mike ... Long time man!!

The second gen I'm referring to is 76000266 for '13 and previous and 76000513 for '14 +
Is that the one you have in your new SG?

Looks like they discontinued the earlier version as it don't pop on Harley's site anymore.
Proper install is pretty critical for good performance on these or so I have found.
