Which Kenwood?

stick with a brand name, that's all.
I personally really like at least 1 usb port on the back (running 6ft extension usb cable under tank to under seat, where my usb stick sits, so HU faceplate is clean.
X998 is great, but over (way) 200 bucks. got plenty of android/iphone support too.
also consider faceplate illumination! most are fixed color unless spending a bit more.

bufbil, I had a Alpine 9886 liked that HU. Rca started shorting out. Got a Kenwood 998, it sounds better IMO, bought it off flea bay for $206. I would stick with Kenwood, Alpine, Sony, or Pioneer, all good HU's. Look on Biketronics website they have Kenwood, and Sony models. When you put in the after market HU A wise investment would be the plastic sheet that comes with Biketronics kits. It protects the HU from water that could drip between the windshield and the fairing, and also what AAWAV recommends, the cover for the face of the HU.
