Default which head unit?

i recently put a fairing on my bike, i was looking at the rockfors fosgate pmx2, but im hearing bad reviews on the bluetooth capabilities, which is what i use the most. what other head units would you recomend, mind you, i have limited options, theres not enough room gor a standard single din chassis, its a 3x5 opening.

Dude don't even think about it... it won't work on so many levels.

If you're got a single-DIN you can pick any car audio deck you like. Get a Scosche rain cover and call it a day.

Will the JL Audio unit fit? I've used that on RK's and it sounds fantastic. Pricey, but's top of the line. Another option is don't use a radio at all. Use a Bluetooth device and go straight to the amp.

Can you please explain how this is done? I could care less about terrestrial radio, all I listen to is streaming. Is it less expensive?
