For those of us who are interested in a mount set up for your harley. You may find this info helpful.

The basic mount is made by leader motorcycle accessories (www.leadermotorcycle.com)
harley ecaddy ED-HD

ultraTilt plate

And after that add whatever device you want to mount and you are good to go .
i had to make the ant mount out of hobby plastic or you can make it out of metal your choice
TSS radio (www.tssradio.com) sells the sort pig tail antenna and the power conversion adapter
(this way you can keep the cig plug free if you have one) that power converter works with 5v and 12 v devices

The above two items will help to keep the installation very clean.

Gotta love the winter projects

 

toby34, do you know if the Sirius antenna works with the ZUMO 550? Garmin wants $250 for their sat antenna verses amout $40 for the Sirius.

 

not a clue, i guess it would be best to call around or even call the folks at tss radio for info on that

 

I have the Zumo 550 and the reason Garmin charges so much for their antenna is because the "antenna" is really the satellite radio itself. The Zumo 550 treats the "antenna" as a data input device not as a signal accumulator. The Zumo 550 manipulates the data and doesn't decode anything.

 

thanks arrt.
