Wombat is your antenna coax the normal 4.5ish metre length and either ran throughout the bike or elongated into a bundle......never coil or cut off your excess coax, the former can often bring in spurious engine noise.

My TAFE teacher when I did my radio tech's trade would be proud I remembered that  :crackup

My coax was made to length by me o:) o:)

In all my years of playing with radios ( aircraft and CB) I have never had excess coax. As long as the connections were done properly there shouldnt be a problem.

An old furphy from the 27meg days, was that coax had to be in 9' multiples (1/4 wave length). If that were true, what length of coax would you nedd for a radio that could operate from 3-30 MegHz???

Most antenna bases you buy in the shops, have the length to allow mounting of the radio and antenna just about anywhere.

My coax is to length running opposite side to electrics I think. I have wired the toroid coil in last night but need to test it. Either that or the radio parts are breaking down like me :grin

Thanks for hints
