Hello ted1r;
occasionally the radios do turn up on eBay but it is getting less and less.
Should you find one to purchase, and used ones are running from 100.00 USD to 175.00 USD approximately, make sure the LCD display is still evident and not all faded away as at last report years ago they were NLA.
The latest price for a new OEM radio is listed as $2429.32 USD so Most people opt for used or aftermarket but aftermarket involves a loss of handlebar switch functions and a PhD degree in fitting the non OEM unit into the OEM mounts/opening.
As long as the LCD display is good, one can probably arrange with Pete Franchi to drop ship the radio to him and being the electronic whiz that he is he can fix most problems it may have and he also has several optional upgrades available.
Google the term: voyagerradiorepairs and you will find Pete's site.
He has done 2 or 3 for me and nary a problem with any of them.
And because these are also NLA, try and get a radio with the side rubber/metal mounts attached; part # 92160-1448 on the "Other" page of a 2003 Voyager XII parts illustration: https://www.partzilla.com/catalog/kawas ... -b17/other
If you keep looking you will find the jewel you are looking for but it will take patience.
Regards,
Dave
