J&M CB 0n SE5

[AnthonyG]

Hi
I'm Mr. MO Spyder And I would like to know if anyone has installed one of j&m's cb's on their SE5. Their web page say's it's only for the SM5.

Do you know what the issues are? Is it only the mounting bracket?
Making a modified bracket would not be a problem.
I just don't want to spend $600.00 and find out there are electrical/electronic issues.

She also has the 4" handlebar riser's.

Thanks for any information you may have.

It's the bracket. I've installed a J&M that was originally installed on a Yamaha by making a different bracket. You can view the full write up here:

The photos don't show a pair of stand-off spacers that were fabricated to space the bracket out from the control housings. I used 50mm length screws to replace the originals; I believe I got them at Lowe's.

In the end, I'm not impressed with the system's capabilities. You'd might get a 1/4 mile of range from it.
