See page 10782 in Harley's P&A catalog for this dish mounting kit. Seriously.

A tv on the bike is only worth it if you're watching **** at 80mph. That's living on the edge.

Do I make a dumb *** comment about you guys that add a million ****ing gay *** neon lights to your bike and make it look like a UFO going down the road, well I can say no I don't. If you don't like it look the other ****ing way. I will build my bike the way that I want it and you build yours the way that you want it. I work hard for my money defending our country on a daily basis and if I want to spend my money by adding a TV to my bike then dammit I am going to do it and don't need your ****ing opinion. Oh and by the way yes I am adding a 26" wheel to my bike. If you do not have any helpful information on this thread then I would appreciate it if you would keep you comments to yourself.

Thanks

I think that's the issue...you looking the other way...at the "Tv"...while riding.

And that's as bad as "a million ****ing gay *** neon lights".

Do yourself a favor bud and toughen up.

Here's a kitten eating a red x so your feelings don't get hurt again.

I think you on to something here... Mount a video camera on the front of the bike and use the tv as a shield that you could overlay a video feed on top of the feed from the camera.

Playing Super Hang-On (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Super_Hang-On) while riding would be totally bad-***.

Do they make chrome 27" leds?

I had to relocate my quick detach mocrwave oven, move the GPS next to the MP3, which caused issue's with the air compressor for my heated/inflatable seat. Then I had to figure out how my boogie lites would work and not cause the air horn to short out. you get the idea? It won't be easy but you can do it.

Oh man, this is funny stuff. Customrydes has a choice of either installing a fold out tv or not but most of the answers are from folks that are screwed with Attention Deficit Disorder for life....the lemmings are everywhere. I guess he should have been researching ...um let see, what motor cycle should he buy, should he put nitrogen in his tire or not, will I get more performance if I take the Cat out of my head pipes, what exhaust should I buy, what windshield is right for me and other stupid *** questions that the more serious bikers are asking.....JEEEZ!

Seems kinda like putting a cement mixer on a boat, but the wiring is the easy part. The hard part is getting the cable guy to actually show up between 8am-5pm on a Tuesday.

If you could put a camera pointing out the back, that would be freaky.

Whooo, don't know if I should post or not. Gettin Nasty. I have a single din am/fm,gps, bluetooth,dvd player on my bike. I got it off ebay for $250. It plays great. Only problem is that if you want to watch it during the daytime, you are out of luck. It's way to bright to see the screen. At night, it's sweet. I have dvd's of concerts (AC/DC) and it sounds great. Now, the issue of driving with the dvd. Yea, it's illegial, plus most units have a built in safety where you cannot have the dvd playing while driving. Yea, you can circumvent the system (it tells how under a google search). I did install a switch, just in case I do want the screen to show on the dvd, but I haven't used it yet. Another downside is that these units are not waterproof, so carry a small tarp with you. All in all, I like it. And fellows, lighten up a little. What would it be like if we all had the same bikes?

I can always count on this forum for some hilarious replies to a ridiculous question. This forum is better than tv.
