Antenna Flagpole w/Flag for GL1800
ITEM CODE: KU4233, SKU: KU4233

Quality & Mounting
This flag was already on my bike when I bought it in 2018. The flag has held up well without fraying at all, even at speeds regularly over 100MPH. I have put a lot of miles on since and it still looks great. The chrome plating shows no pitting or flaking. It was originally mounted on the knurled collar for folding down the antenna whip like in the second photo. The constant vibration made the antenna fold down assembly very loose and floppy. I replaced the antenna whip with an OEM one, and moved my flag down to the antenna base below the black band where the whip screws on. Not only is this saving wear on my whip, the flag no longer moves with the collar, or wrap around the antenna except with the occasional cross-wind. It does stick up slightly higher than the antenna when I put my cover on, but I made a rounded cover to go over the flag mast so it doesn't poke through the cover. |
