    Default CB antenna replacement update

    Spoke with Remi at BRP today... Previously the only way to get a replacement CB antenna was to get the whole assembly.

    BRP came out with a modified kit today. It is part number:

    219 400 317

    BRP is supposed to have them in their hands on or about August 18th.

    By the way using a new kind of locktite than I used last time and screwing the regular long radio antenna back on with it, it has not loosened up after three short rides. So far so good, went with the red locktite instead of the blue thread locker and the radio seems to have normal reception so far. Bill

    red is perm loctite

    would recomend blue with the locking washer instead.

    red may be tough to remove if it ever needed to be say for repairs

    Red takes heat to remove it, and that could damage the antenna and bodywork.
