Listening to the radio. How do you guys do it. when I get my bike I have to figure some way to listen to the radio.

Give me some ideas on how you guys go about it something simple. I'm avoiding a extensive wiring job on the bike! I thought about maybe some type of walkman powered by the Cig lighter adaptor that i would have the dealer wire up for me. You know something along those lines!

I ride with a guy on a FJR who made a bag that has an XM radio, radar detector, frc radio all built into the tank bag. Power connects to a BMW style plug, he uses ear buds but I have JM speakers with a 5 pin plug. I am having him make one for me when I get my 04 DL.

Walmart/Kmart has a Sony digital radio around $24.95. It's about 4" longx3" tall. Has a clip on back. I took a flat piece of metal the width of the clip on back of the radio, about 3" long. Drilled hole in bottom of metal, and mounted to left clutch or mirror mount perch. May need a longer bolt. Use earbuds, and use the spring loaded flap over the gas tank cap key cover to stop wire from flying around. You can reach the radio to change stations without removing your hands from bars, if it looks like rain just unclip radio and put in pocket. I've actually had people think this was a factory setup.
