CS,
Yes, I may need some of that. After my audio project this winter I don't know if I'll even have gas money to ride it. LOL!

I didn’t have cb so I can’t answer those questions. For amp I have a GZ micro mounted in there next to a Arc PSM in one of the pics.

WTF have I gotten myself into. Current state of my ride, hopefully I'll have it wrapped up in the next week or so. Not sure how it spiraled into this.

You sure are going through a lot of work to tune your fairing speakers. Lol

No wonder people are afraid to do their own audio upgrades.

Slo - Is your amp mounting finished? Just wondering if you are comfortable with those bottom 2 stacked directly on each other? I would think you might want an air gap between them. Not criticizing, just asking.

They've got a gap Zach. Crappy angle on the pic but they’re spaced 1/4 inch apart. There are nuts and washers underneath the second amp holding it up.

Not sure if that’s the final way they’ll mount. I’m thinking about ordering some aluminum 50mm standoffs from a drone shop and changing it but at the moment, they’re far enough apart I “think” they’ll be ok.
