Mike,
Not being familiar with that bike, and also probably not having the
same 'aesthetic' values, what I would consider 'workable' probably
isn't going to be the same as your 'workable'. So, take this for what
it's worth.
My aesthetics are variable. The
Does your bike have a fairing? What are the chances of mounting an
antenna on that, if it does have one?
It's a cruiser - it looks like this one, minus the windshield.

Is it fiberglass? How about
just running a strap to the frame?
The rear fender is steel. I think I'll opt for a small dual bander,
mount the radio on the back of the backrest, the antenna on the fender
and go from there.
Shouldn't be too much loss in the 6 inch piece of coax needed!
