ok,, where to begin,,, First, the Arc Moto's won't fit in speaker enclosure,, should I notch the enclosure for the magnet? Doesn't look like there is room for a spacer where the screws go,,,
Also, I've taken the radio out,, since there is no room above it, near as I can tell, it must go below it,, here's a video. Going to go to Biketronics site now to see if there are specific installation instructions for RG's.. theirs show the amp going above the radio,, like on the Bat Wing fairings... any suggestions guys?
here is a picture with the radio out, also the bracket BT sent me. I'm sure when I find out how it goes, it'll be a "DUH" moment,, I hope.... BT says for Road Glides mount the amp on the left side of inner fairing bulkhead, not gonna happen with the speaker enclosures and the vents in there.... looking for 15 instructions on their site now.
Just figured it out,, got more pictures, taking a break continue tomorrow,, really didn't want to cut the speaker baskets,, for fronts. Hoping Haze or Gann will let me know it's OK, and they'll still sound great. I'm just going to notch it enough to let the magnet set down,, sigh,,
Yea, I figured it out,, sheesh... And on my comment in the video, I'm SURE they don't expect you to screw it to the mount,, am curious what those holes are for though,,,

Jim glad your close brother. I haven't seen the inside of a 15 RG yet so not sure what your up against, but the Titan 6.5 and Arcs are very similar in size so they should fit. Post a pic of what you think you need to trim. Installs are never easy but worth it once you're on the road!

Two pictures in this thread show the magnet hitting the edge of the speaker enclosure,, with about 3/8" gap between the screw holes and mounting point. I figured I'll need to cut a crescent sized piece out of the enclosure for the magnet to go through? These things are packed tight inside the Fairing with the 3 vents. And the two speaker enclosures.
Do you think that cutting the housing will degrade the sound quality? (I'll still poly fill it inside,, (loosely, right? Not packed of course)
