Default Quick fitment question
I added the second amp (B52) and with the first amp already installed, it hangs over the stock tray about an inch and a half. Anyone see any issues with proper Fairing fitment when it goes back on?

Haha, no. I know that would answer the question pretty quickly, but I haven't.

Does it stick out further than the HU? If not you should be ok.

It does, however I switched to the Sony xav5000, which doesn't stick out as far as the stock unit.

I just took a couple quick measurements on my bike. My amp over hangs the JM amp tray 1 3/4 inches and is the same dementions tall without any issues of the fairing going on.

If ur over 7.1 from the back of the gauge wire harness to the edge of the amp and over 2" tall on the amp, ur more than likely gonna have to wrestle the shix out of ur fairing. Aka, a do over.

Thanks for getting us the correct measurement and reporting back. Tape measures can be tricky to read.
