What NAV-TV bluetooth module are you using? (Part #)

StreamBlue interface Part# NTV-KIT510. It's a bit expensive but works great. Mike at Biketronics sent me some info on one that he has been working on as well, it is BT344. Not sure if it's a standard offering yet. If I hadn't already bought the NAV-TV unit I probably would have gone that route. Can't speak to the performance but Mike and Biketronics have been great to deal with and their other products are top notch.

I put Biketronics speakers in my lower fairings and 6x9's in the saddle bag lids with a soundstream 400w amp in the left saddlebag and it was stupid loud and clear. Loved it! Way louder than my father n laws stock ultra limited.

I would not use standard coaxial speakers on a RG. A Pro audio speaker will easily get 2-3 times louder and you'll want/need that without a fairing.

Bose wireless noise cancelling headphones for me with an iPad or iPhone as the music source. Thrilling.

I don't particularly like having lowers on my king but it was the best option for me to get quality sound without an aftermarket batwing.

It wasn't cheap by any means especially utilizing OE painted lids and lowers but it looks and sounds great. If your interested in more detail just let me know.

I would like to know please
