When you use this on an ATV, where do you put the actual radio? Clip on body? Attach to machine somehow?

I started off trying to mount it to our motorcycles, but couldn't find anyplace that really fit. So we wound up just putting them in our pocket, we ride with protective jackets that have decent sized pockets. Plus that left only unplugging the push/talk buttons to unplug when we got off the bike. Be gentle when you plug/unplug stuff, those pins are not very robust and can be easily bent.

I tie wraped the belt clip of the radio holder to the center of my motorcycle handelbars. The headset has a quick reliece that easaly detaches from the radio. The headphones fit nicely into the helment as well behind the ear cutouts in most helments. Great setup. Well worth the money. Hope this helps.

There is a clip by the trigger on your machine ... Some machines don't have it so I Just used zip ties ... It's worth it though the machine feels weightless when I'm using the harness

The radio does not have an attachment point for a neck strap. It does have a belt clip. It also allows you to lock the station, so I typically just put it in a pocket.

It would have been nice if you had given me the dimensions of the chassis and front panel. If the manual I found on line is correct your radio will fit into the housing. The housing is not meant to be mounted vertical and will leak. When I mounted it in the side pocket of my motorcycle I had to put a drain hole in the bottom of the enclosure. It did keep the radio dry but the top of the sliding window is not leak proof and was never meant to be mounted in a vertical position. I like it better than the flip tops that kept breaking on me.

I believe when I bought this unit that to use the XM radio you had to buy a add on mod for that feature. The same ass the Bluetooth and the cable for the iPod.

Doesn't matter where the radio is. The antenna must have access to the sky. I have mine sitting on the console with the antenna on the dash in a holder. Works pretty well most of the time.

If you purchase the universal mounting kit I believe there would be an adapter that would work on your ATV.

No instructions you just plug it in to the back of the radio and secure the rest of the antenna somewhere

The most obvious place to mount is on top of dash where you can see the unit easily. Most radios are to small for this unit to be installed.

It mounts in the storage slot to the right of the radio. I would not recommend installing this yourself. It is a lengthy install and requires a reprogramming of the computer. You also have to remove the seats and take them apart.

I don't have an ATV, but I drive a Mini Roadster convertible in which we go on runs with other Miniacs and we communicate on radios. I bought these because they have a great range, but didn't much consider the noise factor. My passenger uses the radio while I drive and he/she seems to hear fine on them, but I'm constantly saying, "What did they say?" because I can't hear it from the driver's seat.

It depends on your ATV size. It acts as a back rest for a passenger on mine just fine.

The rugged mount comes just as pictured. You can buy a mount separate or make your own as I did. Mount direct wires to your battery. Hold you GPS firmly with the anti-theft screw. I use mine on an ATV in rocky terrain and it worked great.

My radio is flush mounted but with the bracket that comes with the radio to install on top of a console or something is much easier to remove and install. One minute to remove/install.

There is an antenna on the radio. So im knot sure how you would hook up a different one

As of right now I'm using the stock radio and it works well. I do have a nice Sony I've been thinking about mounting and if you look around you can find an adapter so you can still control the radio from the handlebar. I would suggest also getting the small tweeters from Hogtunes that mount around the Road Glide gauges.

You use the clip that comes with the GPS unit that is attached to the windshield mount. Just pops off.
