I had a plan but my new plan is to just follow closely behind pdevore while riding and pick up any audio equipment that vibrates off his bike and put it on mine. Then for my upgrades, I will wait for Pete to get sick of his first DSP and buys an even SMALLER one and then I will install his old one that is 8% larger than his new small one.
I see how it is....
Too bad my build is kinda on hold until the stupid little DSP is released.
Lowers came in and are getting mocked up now before going to paint.

If it will CANBUS into the Infotainment system and we can get maestro datalink integration... We'll be in high cotton. I hate to spend the money on line levelers just to throw em away if these things are ready by the time all my other parts come in.
This is where I'm at:
Keep in mind I like to hide the secret sauce so I'm hiding everything behind factory CVO grills to keep em guessing. All amps in the fairing.
Parts:
- Biketronics pod eliminators
- Dynamatted outer
- Biketronics 4180 (uppers/lowers)
- JL Audio MHX280/4 (lids)
- Maybe 2nd JL Audio MHX280/4 (If I need to add 8's or a set of Arc Moto 692's for bass)
- Line levelers (preferably a DSP)
- Stinger RCAs
- Harley BOOM saddlebag lids and grills with quick disconnects
- 6x9 adapters (I'm waiting on Springer's review of the American Hard bag version)
- Biketronics invisible Hogtenna
- Hydrophobic cloth on everything
- Antenna splitter cable
- Joe Chameleon leds w/ Bluetooth
Upper faring:
DD AW6.5's with AT28's
I'm going to mount the tweeter suspended behind the CVO grills like the Biketronics 7.1 pros do
Lower faring:
DD AW6.5's (a Digital Designs tweeter). Tweet choice is gonna depend on what we decide I can best hide behind that CVO lower grill. I'm going to make a mount that bends upwards towards the grill so that the tweet mounts against the grill further from the speakers excursion. I've got Titan II's that could go there if we can't get the tweet back there behind the grill but if one set of AW's sound that good 2 will sound even better right!
Saddlebags:
Biketronics 6x9's with bridge mounted tweets. JL amp mounted on the BT brackets. I know these are not everybody's choice but Gann says they really pound if they get enough power and I have to have a sealed cone. The stuff I have in my saddlebags sometimes for work cannot get wet and T's buddy says it's always as dry as a popcorn fart in his bag with these. It wouldn't just be drying out some jeans. It would be game over if these things get wet so I'm erring on the side of caution. If there isn't enough bass I could add a 2nd JL amp to the other bracket and run a set of Arc Moto 692's or an 8 inside the bags. I'm gonna use these 5x7 to 6x9 converters if Springer gives them the ok.

Antenna:
Antenna splitter cable to invisible antenna and factory antenna to zipped to frame.
That's where I'm at right now what do you think?
Full disclosure: I got pretty amped just typing that up!
T.. You and Haze will be getting lots of vids when I start trying to tune that JL lol!
Alright... Throat punch away!!!

I know. I know. I'm guilty of "STILL" planning. I was hoping to find a used set of 14&up lowers and cvo boom speaker lids on the cheap (preferably charcoal pearl) but I'm just going to go ahead and order em. I also haven't ordered line levelers yet. I am anxiously awaiting the Bluetooth controlled DSPs. I like this one:

FW, the issue with waiting for the Fosgate is what if it sucks, ot the first batch is glitchy, does not work with the canbus system, or worse is delayed until Q4!!!
If I was designing this build I would reconsider the AW in the lowers (this coming from the guy who sells them!). To mount the tweeter how would you run the tweeter wires? My personal taste is a louder pro audio type speaker in that location. Something you can hear on the road. The BT 6X9 are awesome speakers. Make sure their tweeter bridge mounts when using an 5x7 to 6x9 adaptor.
So so when are we doing this!
