Default HELP !! 2017 Police Bike

OK, I'm gonna start kinda cheap. Want to put a radio on the PB. Not sure what I have to do. I have four speakers from my Road Glide that I can use till I can afford upgrades. I'm willing to spend some money for a kit and a head unit. I mostly stream music or listen to an ipod. Right now I'm using my helmet which I don't like doing in traffic. Any suggestions on wiring, Rushmore housing kits, and Radios would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

sounds like u have a perfect platform to build a killer sound system and not have to deal with the factory head unit headaches many have
you will receive lots of great info from the experts here.
what kind of speakers do u currently have?

lol. good point. you can probly get 2 damn good pair of speaks for what you spent on the j&m

what are you looking to get out of your new bike? a 2 speaker system? 4? does your bike have thumb controls for operating a stereo? will you be adding them if you dont? what is your budget?

I'm leaning towards a Soundstream PN4.1000D and a set of Kappa 62.11i speakers for my 2014 FLHTP which is way too quiet. I'll be watching this thread.

I'm not planning on running a HU at all, just the amp, BT receiver and speakers. I have a Sony MEX-GS 610BT but it's just collecting dust.
