The fairing speakers are going to be the only ones I have, I can go higher money wise but would like to keep the complete package under 750.00

Simple solution:

Get this amp: $224

https://www.sonicelectronix.com/item...MaAl_aEALw_wcB

These Brackets: $270
http://www.biketronics.com/bt114-spe...014-and-up-eg/


This Line leveler: $85
http://www.biketronics.com/bt355-hd-...r-2014-and-up/

These speakers: $190 from SporkCustoms

http://dbdrive.net/product/wdx6moto/


Total: $769

By the time you get 8 gauge power and ground, 16 gauge speaker wire, A set of RCA's and a 40 amp fuse you'll top out right at $800 bucks.

There are speakers to accommodate the pods but what you find is there are a limited amount of 6.5 speakers that actually fit the pods without modification.

IMO one of the best investments you can make for your audio on the 14 and up bikes is the BT bracket.

Yes. They are a little pricey but well worth it!

Here is an example of the wire harness to power the amp.

the wdx6moto speakers will fit in the factory fairing pods with minor mods.

Glad to hear that. What modification is needed to make them fit?

I recently installed a set on a friends 2016 flhx. I had to trim off the indexing tab on the face of the pod, then trim about 1/2 off one of the internal ribs. Also removed the tweeter grills and used hog tunes grills.

So this is a good combination that won't break the bank and gives me good tunes at highway speeds? These are good speakers for the price compared to some of the others?
