    The helm station seat on the command bridge of my 2025 R29 CB will slide fore and aft no problem BUT it doesnt seem to "lock" down. The backrest will flip or flop just by pushing on it.

    Any advice for changing head hoses on a 2019 R 29?

    The head odor is out of control on my R 29 and I understand that the best way to fix it is to replace the head hoses.

    How Much Power to TV Antenna?

    How much power goes to the TV antenna (or can be run through that existing cable) on a 2019 R-29 CB? I'm thinking of pulling off the antenna, which I never use, and replacing it with a Starlink Mini. I'd very much like to modify the existing cable to power the Mini if that's possible.
