Mesh Grill Stubby Antenna

[Slagiatt]

New Member - I've seen a lot of references to the "Mesh Grill Stubby Antenna" on the forums. Does this replace the stock whip antenna or is it for CB application? Where can you find this? My web searches haven't been successful. Thanks!

The stubby antenna that I am familiar with can be purchased from Wal-Mart for about $10.00

:welcome: I think they are two different things. Stubby antenna no problem as stated above Wal-Mart and the mesh grilles you can get to replace the plastic ones on the spyder. :thumbup:

Isn't there some kind of honey comb grill for the "volcano hole" on the right side that is sold after market? I was thinking there was to match the left hand side.

Congratulations on the new Spyder!!

SpyderPops, one of the site sponsors, has the mesh grills. www.spyderpops.com

Sorry, can't help with the antenna.

So it's actually two pieces; :thumbup:
I asked about that once...
The Rep told me that it was an absolute intent of theirs to have nothing blocking the path of airflow...

Bob, you might wanna take a look at Harvey's a/k/a Spyderpops heat shield. That thing really works.

I originally thought that a matching right side grille would look nice on the bike.
Realizing that they didn't leave it out just to save money has me holding off on the purchase.

I've looked at all of those grilles; they're really sharp! :thumbup:
I tried a stubby antenna; it didn't work worth a hoot up here in our mountains... :shocked:

Thanks!

I suspect I was looking at peoples' lists of mods and they were run together ... meshgrillestubbyantenna ... Or some such misreading.
Thanks for all of the input and the one critique of the antenna...guess I really don't need it. :sour:

Mesh Grill

Spyderpops have chrome mesh grills. Since I don't use foot pegs I have chrome mesh on both side one on the left and upper and lower on the right.
