Default 6x9 SPEAKER LIDS.

I'm looking to add a set of 6x9 speaker lids to my 2014 streetglide but I am concerned that they hang down to far and will take up to much space in my bags. If someone has a set or knows any info on these or the 5x7 Harley lids I would really appreciate it. Thanks

I'd go here and purchase the Lids only:


http://www.cyclesounds.com/2014-harl...ete-kit-2.html


Then go here and buy their 6 X 9 speakers:
http://www.biketronics.com/bt479ht-6...d-speaker-kit/


To answer your question: The speakers do not take up very much space at all. You will still have plenty of room to pack stuff.


When you go to the biketronics site you will be looking at buying the speakers ONLY. Their lids do not fit the '14's

What speaker lids are you looking at? Hog Tunes lids for the 14 & 15 model bags won't be out until early next year from what I've heard. I don't know if the Biketronics 6x9 adapter rings for the CVO lids will work with the later models either. You would need to call them about that. I do have the 6x9's in my pre-14 lids and yes it does cut down some on the volume of the storage area, but not so much that I wouldn't recommend them to anyone that wants a jammin' sound system.

my 2 cents on the cyclesounds...
a. WOW - pricy...
b. seems like they face up and perhaps even backwards... IMHO that equals to NOT good...
pre-'14 HT lids face in and forward - way better.
if you are not in a hurry, I would personally wait for HT

Not in a hurry going to upgrade the front first with Infiniti 62:11s and a RF pbr 300x4. Looking at lids mainly for the wife. She likes the tunes as much or more than me. Take quite a few weekend trips and bags are pretty packed but would really like the rear speakers too. Thanks for all the help.

Just as a side note: The Rockford PBR300X4 you mentioned is not compatible with the Infinity 62.11i speakers. They are 2 ohm speakers. The amp is a dedicated 4 ohm amp.

IMHO Cycle Sound lids are junk. HT are the best out there right now. I have both and the Cycle Sounds leak much more.

I hear you brother. . . Expensive too! But for the 14's they are the only aftermarket lids available right now that I know of until HT releases theirs.

Gannicus do you have a 2 ohm amp recommendation. Still learning this stereo stuff. First bike I've had with one.
