I have had good success with their headsets and handlebar mounted CB unit....I don't own the radio upgrade.

Just as mentioned before, way more expensive direct than a retailer. I bought the speaker lids from Eastern Performance for 629.00 shipped and from J&M 899.00 shipped. The lids are actually Baddad and are nice lids, the downside is that the speaker has a basket which confines you to certain speakers or to trim the basket very carefully to fit others.
