cb radio on a heritage
hey gang... got question for the techie types...
i am thinking of putting a cb radio (for long range communication while out on the open road... its nice to yap with folks while on a long empty road) on my 08 heritage somehow. i dont like the handlebar mounts. i was thinking of doing it like on a touring bike...permanantly mounted in the bike with voice operated headset in my helmet
has anyone seen this done? a standard little cb radio is a lot smaller than a kleenex box. there has to be a way to mount it, and then attach a voice activated headset.
pictures, suggestions, etc etc would be helpful

Cobra now has a blue tooth radio, you may want to look at that and see if that will work out. They also have a small mike with the whole radio in it, not sure how much volume there would be but that is a place to start.

I have this one on my Heritage:

I can get good reception out to around 3 miles w/ 2ft antenna. Came in handy on my trip to the Cabot Trail. It also has an ipod connector.
I use it with a J&M helmet headset. Bluetooth is way too pricey right now. Hopefully down the road price will get more reasonable.
Got mine from Sieraelectronics. Good prices and service.
