I'd say that means we won't be seeing any stereo install posts from you then, right? I'll post mine once I'm done, I hope others do as well.

I put some music on my Deluxe. Here is the thread,,,,if I do it right. There is a bunch of things I did to the bike in here so hope you don't mind. If you want to set up your own tunes it may give you some ideas.

But wearing a McDonalds drive through head set while blasting music for everybody in a 500 yard radius is not grounds for a ticket.

I did the ear bud and MP3 player for 2 years and I found it distracting. It seemed the earbuds were always coming loose out of my ears and I was constantly messing with them and losing the soft ear pieces.

I bought the Reckless a couple months ago and it just works. Wind protection is great and the tunes are fantastic. While riding on back country roads or the hi way I can crank up the tunes since I have an amp and it is loud and clear. I do have enough respect for others and I don't want to look like a douche that when I am around others I turn the volume down.

The Reckless Windshield tunes look like a good alternative if you want tunes and your stock wind shield.

I took aux light housings put 4 1/2 inch speakers in them and mounted an amp in my bags, I use an inline volume control mounted to the frame just behind my left leg, I use my phone or mp3 for source ill try to get a few pics up today, speakers can be mounted on bars or on the crash bars they're compact enough they look good either place

On the Kawasaki, I have my iPhone on a mag mount on the dash which is hard wired into the entertainment system, with all the tunes accessible from the left switch gear.

On the RK, I have a similar mount just below the speedo and a bluetooth headset in my crash helmet with one touch call answer and text to voice etc. All my tunes direct to me ears without all the speakers and **** that are needed on the Kawa.
Simple cigarette lighter charger in the right saddlebag mounted with the air tank for my police seat shock, and a cable running to the iPhone mount. Easy Peasy.
