CB Alternative

[SilverSurfer]

Has anybody ever seen one of these (JMCB 2003) adapted to an RT SE5? If so, how? Again, I am not asking about mounting on an RS. I'm asking about adapting to an RT SE5. Specifically: Handlebar mounting, power and antenna run to rear trunk.

Thanks! :helpsmilie:

We talked to J & M about this for my RT-S SE5 a few weeks ago and did not have a bracket to fit my bike. So gone with BRP and my J & M headset.
Had the hand mount CB on my other bike and it did very well.

Called JM and said that since BRP has their own CB/Com system that JM says works very well JM will not be building a CB/Com systen for Rt and no I have not found anything on web to modify Rs cb for Rt

Ruthie, I have the BRP CB which the dealer installed. It seems to transmit okay, but receive is poor. I ride with the same group and my Wing CB is clear on receive up to 3/4 miles or so, but my Spyder receive over 2-300 years is garbled and broken up. I am not too happy with it's performance....yours???? Just wondering.

Have the J & M CB on my SE5 and on my new RTS I have Scala G4. I was never happy with the unit. Never recieved well and all kinds of trouble with Helmet cords and lower cords. Replaced 3 cords in a year .

I was hoping for the CB to work. I don't need a passenger hookup. Just a CB when I ride in a group...

Big Red 1, Rode Sunday about 150 miles with hubby and could hear him very well. Have not rode with our GW friends since I got the CB so can't say how it works with them.

Will be riding to Seiverville, TN this Thursday, only with hubby but it will be a good test for a long ride. I will let you know how it works on the this trip.


If any Sypder owner in the area of Sevierville, TN., GWRRA TN District is having a rally at the Sevier County Fairgrounds. All bikers are welcome. And who know, you may find something at the vendors. http://www.tngwrra.org/

Ruthie, my CB works great at short distances, however when I get 1/4 mile or more from the other rider, it is garbled and staticie...(not a word, ha ha) Fall back from your husband 1/4 or more, maybe 1/2 mile and see how it works...that is when I have my problem. I might just have loose grounds or something that I will address with the dealer. Thanks, BR1.
