I have a 2010 Street Bob that I have done some major mods to in addition to the audio setup. I will tell you what I did to the bike inorder to be able to listen to tunes while I enjoy some touring. First I changed the trees over to Fat Bob trees to provide a wider platform for the setup. Then I used some 49mm turn sig relocation clamps from Kuryakyn as mounting brackets for the batwing I am installing, I got the clamps from another forum member really cheap. Then I ordered a Softail passing lamp bar from Drag Specialties, this allows me to use a after market batwing instended for a softail Fatboy, Heritage or Deluxe. Using the clamps, I attach the bar to the fork legs, I did have to lower the legs out of the top tree to get the brackets on which is pretty easy.The batwing mounted right up onto the setup without any issues. On the inner part of the fairing I had to enlarge the radio hole to be able to install the radio with the water tight cover, an after market radio will mount right into the hole provided by the distributor. I used an older Alpine radio I pulled from a car before I sold it and was able to get four OEM HD 5.25" speakers for free from a friend I ride with. I plan on upgrading the system with a better radio, better speakers and maybe an amp, possibly adding speaker lids to the bags, but that in the future. Also, the fairing hasn't been painted, the pics show exactly how it came straight out of the box.

Cool. Get yourself 4 infinity 52.11i speakers and a Cerwin Vega B4 amp to push em and you'll be in business.
