Here are some pix of the outta junkbox construction of my
Motorcycle Mobile install.
 
The wiring I came up with works well, My Bike is LOUD
but with the dual speakers from a good quality headset I don't
have to even come close to half volume to understand what is
being received even under hard acceleration.  The boom mic
is an Electret that I have received good reports, some engine
exhaust noise can be slightly heard under normal 65 mph travel,
but becomes quiet noticeable under acceleration, I can still
be understood by those receiving me..
 
 
The Helmet
Boom mic given to me by N7MSH- Neal,
thanks Neal..
 
 
5/8s wave Larson
coil mounted to wind shield, radiator bent not quite 90^ to
Vertical. Ground strap from  base of Antenna to Frame of Bike.
You can barely see the leather holster just above turn signal
behind the windshield for the radio.
 
 
 
Stereo plug from helmet goes into the top of yellow
(Black Powder Bullet) box,  Ptt is on left grip.  Power cord is
used to power radio from Bike.
 
Well that's about it for my home made install of 2 meters on a
1983 V65 Magna.
