Default Audio Please....

Anyone added audio to a 2019 Sport Glide. Got a new system for my wife’s bike. A Boss system with 3” bullet speakers. Got excited when it showed up which quickly turned to disappointment when the right speaker will not fit on the bars. Any ideas of what to buy/use? Any knowledge would be greatly appreciated!!

Have you tired the kuryakan sound bar? I heard alot of good reviews and my friend has one and he likes it. If you still like the one you purchased l, then you could do something custom to make it work.

Have you got any pictures of the problem you are facing?

For me I stopped using speakers or upgrades for fairing model's and now enjoy a different option.

In the past I was in the same boat, but after high speeds the sound quality is not where you expect it to be. So the only way to get a louder sound means more money which is ok if your not going to change your bike.

So for me now i use a sena headset in my helmets and enjoy it far more better then I ever did when I had speakers.

Plus I can now take a call an emergency call if I needed too. Plus i also have the option to share the same music with the wife along along with 2 way communication if needed.

The reason why I took this route was because it made more sense to me rather than having music blaring out loud from the bike.

Hope this helps.....

Gotta admit that I’m very happy running Jabra wireless Bluetooth ear buds with my iPhone. I can get music and GPS audio at highway speeds.
