I accidentally posted road glide not road king and there was no way of editing the thread title, so reposted it.

6.5 haven't decided which ones yet until I figure out what amp and how to get it installed.

I was thinking in front or behind the battery, someone on this form mentioned they moved the ECM unit in front of battery and mounted amp on top of battery on a shelf.

Just curious. Why not run it in the hard bags? and what lower fairing speakers are you looking at?

If I have to I will, figured don't have to drill holes in bags. Shorter easier cable runs and hassle or removing bags.

Here's the thing. You need an amp with good power to run your lowers and you need the loudest speakers you can purchase in that location or you're basically wasting your time with the whole project. To hear those speakers in that location at 80 mph they need to be loud and clear with authority.

A small amp that fits in under the seat won't make the cut.
