I read alot of messages on this and other boards about how bad the Honda CB radio is. Well I'm here to tell you that I haven't noticed any issues with low transmit distance etc. True, the wing doesn't provide the Ground Plane that a car does, but I bought a good SWR meter at Radio Shack and was able to adjust the SWR's down to a flat match on 19 and they're 1.1 to 1 on 40 and 1, so it don't get much better than that.
If you're riding around the phoenix area and you've never checked your SWR's and your CB performance sucks.. I'd be happy to throw the meter on it and check it out for you. It only takes a few minutes to make the adjustments (I had to cut about 1/2" off mine to get it to a 1:1 flat match.
