Damn dude, how fast were you going? Riding the bike or trailering it?

If you were riding, what kind of seat you have to ride basicly 24hrs? My but hurts after 2. LOL

Might have to take a trip to Miami.

I can assure you the 10's in the bag are FAR superior to my previous lid setup (6900 pro's getting 150rms). My previous lids were essentially gone by 50mph, the current in bag set up is still present at 70mph. Obviously they aren't blaring in your ears but they are still audible. With that being said my fronts are crystal clear at 105mph. Nothing is lacking in my current setup

I rode the bike to Miami. Coming home I did in one day. It was 1196 miles door to door and 21 hours flat. For long trips I have a Russell daylong with a backrest. Ugly as sin but allows me to ride as long as I want. This trip was 2820 miles in 4 days. If your looking for an incredible system on your bike a trip to see Haze is money well spent.

As a discussion for riding vs static display since about 99% of the HD Forum folks are riders let me throw this out there. Considering you have a solid fairing platform, what would be the order of the following list for max benefit of a 4 speaker setup for those that ride/tour?

6x9 lids
Double 6x9 lids
6.5 lowers
8" lowers
6.5 tour pack
8" lids
10" inside bags
8" inside bags
8" tour pack
Sub in tour pack
Subs inside bags

Will totally depend on your riding style, bag space ur willing to give up, and what ur trying to obtain but physics also does play a bit of a role in the hierarchy that will be right for your audio goals.

Hands down 8.8's in the lids! (I may be a little partial to them though)

After much money and time spent Hands down 8.8 in the lowers for me and 8.8 in pak for the lady.
Have had a bunch of 6.5 in lowers and front stage is really upper front stage until full sound from lowers are introduced .had to do over again would do pro in fairing 8.8 lowers 8 mid in bag and done.

What would like is for outkast to post before and after psm file and actually see what kind of magic happens in Miami that cannot be taught to us that have have spent thousands of dollars and live twice as far away.And Outkast that was hell of a trip.
