Default 2013 SG radio recommendations?

Hey Ultranutz, a while back you recommended a system for my bike and I've listed it below. I'm getting close to ordering exactly what you recommended and I would appreciate one more bit of info from you. Can you tell me exactly what radio I should get with this system?

Hogtunes 6x9 lids
Radio preference, something with 4v or 5v RCA outputs
Biketronics BT7P1 7.1" in fairing
Pioneer TS-D6902R 6x9 in lids
Biketronics 4180 amp
Biketronics or Hawgwired handlebar control module
vtwin mounting kit for radio
rainshield

I'm running a Kenwood X998, it has the 4v pre outs. Lots of choices out there, I'm sure you'll get 20 different opinions on the subject, but I like the Kenwood HU the best.

I'm going to go unconventional and suggest this:

I like 2 headunits.

Sony DSX-S310BTX - has iPod tray and nice features
Kenwood KIV BT901 (been discontinued but you can get a good price on it) - nice features, nice glass black finish to match that vtwin mounting kit.

austinslider mentioned another good one the KDC-X998. Nice features but doesn't have iPod controls that I can tell.
