CB Antenna Adaptor

[Lebkorg]

Several years ago my CB antenna snapped off my 06 RSV as I understand has happened to most RSV owners. I understand that the Yamaha antenna has 8m stud and most available antennas have 3/8" stud. I read somewhere that Firestik made a adaptor for this, model K-1A8M. I cannot find any mention of it on their website or anyone that sells it. Sierra Electronics makes an adaptor for Harley, but nothing for Yamaha.

 

Could I buy a standard 3/8" fold over adaptor and rethread the male end to 8m x 1.25 and make this work with a Firestik Firefly antenna?

I think it would be easier to contact the Texas authorized Firestick ditributor and ask them what they have...

Go to any of the bigger truck stops and you will find anything you need to repair your CB antenna system. Including new cable ends, and antenna mounts, antenna quick disconnect adaptors or antenna fold over adaptors. You may have to hit more than one the selection varies from truck stop to truck stop. But the bigger ones along the interstates usually have a huge selection.

I just removed my antennas off my 99. you are more than welcome to have my factory stud.

I just think that it's funny that saddlebum is in a conversation about a "stud". Does everyone else see the Stallion in his signature? I guess he knows all about studs.

This is what I did when I broke mine.
