Ebay or try a salvage yard. Hard to locate a good one. Like everything else on our bike, they are not made anymore

Or Carl Leo. Or a non-Voyager radio. My first XII had a Hondaline cb that sat on left handlebar above the controls for the radio.

The CB from a 1300 will not plug in.. Believe me , I have looked.. :-)
While the circuit from the 1300 and 1200 and the JC209 (GL1200 goldwing) is almost identical, the wiring loom is different and the control board in the main unit is also different..

Carl may well have a complete CB outfit.. I know they run anything from $450 up.. New they were $900+ and the actual radio was $1700
The 1300's will not interface correctly with the 1200 radio either.. :-(
I suppose, If I sat down and spent a couple of days, I may be able to cobble something together from the 1300 but by the time I did that, would it all be worth it?

Ron.. I had the pleasure of working on one of those Hondaline's on a voyager that came to my house last year.. I wonder if it was yours..
Nice setup.. Made an adapter cable to feed the radio into it too..
Cheers..
