A sign of a???
Is changing speakers in your motorcycle a sign of a
Luxury bike? Old man's bike? Pimp bike? Rockin bike? Not sure... But either way, the stock speakers weren't very clear, and got all mushy/distorted when cranked up real high. So the boys and girls at HogTunes.com have the solution to my dilemma. They offer new front speakers, new rear speakers, lower glove box speakers, top of dash tweaters, amps... the works. All interchangeable and you can just keep adding, adding, adding, adding... All plug n play with 20yr warrenties. All specifically designed for the hogs. For me it was just a new set of front speakers. The rears aren't on the bike anymore and I don't want to add more on so no gloves box or tweats. Let's just see what the new fronts sound like... Out of Canada, they arrived just a few days after my order. So time to get to work... Prep the hog for work.... Get the outer fairing off and we find the stock HD speakers... Well those suck Comparo (Left: HD / Right: HogTunes) You can even see that they upgraded the tweater HD: HogTunes: All direct wired plug n play Let me tell ya... they FUCKIN ROCK!!! The neighbor "kiddy corner" said she could hear them so well that she thought one of her kids had a radio on in the house. I CAN NOT WAIT to check them out on the road tomry!!!

I think it was Tigger that said you were doing your part to keep the economy going, I'd have to agree

Cause if you look at the pic of the front outer fairing gone, the spots stay. Well when you tip the fairing forward it will rub against the back of the spots. That is a pre-caution to prevent scratching of the shiny goods!!
DAMN RIGHT! Fuckers can't blame me for not spending! |

I rented an Ultra Glide Classic a few years ago for a week and rode from Denver up to Jackson, Wyoming and Yellowstone. It had the CD player mounted in the dash and the front speakers.
I tell you what, I got used to that setup in a hurry. Hope the new speakers work out well for you!
