1991 Flying brick K100 LT Stock radio worked sort of, but had a bad channel so I replaced it with a fancy new unit, but still had horrible, inconsistent reception. Had the dealer check the antenna out and he claimed it was just fine and that reception on these things just isn't that whippy.
Is there another antenna I can replace the stock unit with that will get me better reception, or someway to get better reception out o the one I have?

When I first got my K75s I had a radio cassette mounted in the lid of the top box. Reception was fine around town but once in the hills reception deteriorated. Due to the lack of a handle bar tuning system I had to stop and retune or just use the cassette player. This wore thin pretty quickly so I ended up getting a portable pocket sized AM/FM MP3 player from Jaycar. It cost me around $30.00 Au on special. It will hold 1500-2000 songs and I currently have about 300 on there at the moment. The only downside is that the charge only lasts for two hours. I overcame that problem by carrying a portable battery bank. It fits into my inner jacket pocket which is waterproof as does the battery bank. I can also plug it into the power outlet on the brick with an adapter. Sometime in the future I'll mount a Jaycar handle bar mounted dual USB socket to cover the MP3 player and my helmet camera which also only last for two hours. The only time I use the radio function is to tune into my GPS.
Regards Martin.

The new radio has the means to run an aux in so I can run an iPod, or my Phone through it, but it's only got 2 4" speakers and so I'm thinking of just using my phone with a bluetooth headset to play music. Still would like a reliable radio.

Is there another antenna I can replace the stock unit with that will get me better reception, or someway to get better reception out o the one I have?
When I bought my radio kit(used from user in England) it came with a 'power amplified' antenna that US bikes didn't come with. I don't use the radio anymore so I can't really say if it worked good or not. It did take up more space on the inside of the faring when mounted and I had to find really low profile speakers to fit as I didn't have the stock speakers.
Anymore I use either my ipod wired to my Sena, or blutooth my phone. With my phone I can stream the radio station I would have normally listened to anyway......

Is that some kind of hint, or something?
