Need a little more info here.
1. I have never seen a GoldWing that came from the factory a/CB included have only a single antenna! That said, as far as I know there is not and no reason to have a "splitter" installed w/2 antennas, one being for the AM/FM, the other for the CB.
2. After market wise there are several single antenna models that do have a signal splitter included. One should look for the ones that have the CB coax straight through and the "split" goes to the AM/FM for the best CB performance.
Using one of these types makes very little difference is performance vs. having 2 antennas.
As for the one "wire"(do you mean coax cable?)being cut off, is it the CB antenna coax?
Suggest you find someone with or get a SWR meter w/the proper jumpers to hook up to the Motorola connectors used on the Wings CB coax to check it out. In the mean time, do not try to transmit until you are certain you have a working connection to the antenna. Doing so is like reving up a motor while the tranny is in neutral-Not a good thing to do!
