    Default Can't find info on the CB

    I see it has controls for the CB but no info on it.

    I looked for that last night too and could not find anything. I'd also like to see where the headphones and mic outlet is located.

    It could be like the Goldwing, all the controls and logic are put on the bike but it doesn't become active until you spend an additional $800 on the CB and antenna

    I asked my dealer and he couldn't find anything in the literature they had received, either. Very little dealer info on the entire sound system, in fact. My guess is also that it is an add-on option, but the RT catalog does not list it as yet. Maybe it adapts to some sort of existing unit, but given BRP's penchant to provide their own options, I suspect it is to be introduced at a later date.

    Oh, I can pretty much guarantee it will be a BRP specific CB simply because it needs to interface to the rest of the electronics. The kicker will be the price. Honda gets $799 MSRP for the CB "box" you plug into the existing wire harness plus another $160 MSRP for the antenna and mount. I went the discounter route and it still cost me $680 plus 2 hours of my time to install it.

    I can't remember what the price was but it is a option and it's a plug and play deal just like XM radio. I'm sure we'll see all those prices on the BRP site soon.
