just for the record, i've got 2 Xls and only one FL, i'll never get rid of my 93 xl, but i do wish i could but tunes on it, but i don't realistically think it's gonna happen. if you need the bike to pick up chicks, that's another story altogether. I've picked up more chicks while riding my sportster than most guys have ever picked up chicks under ANY circumstances. that is a different story all together I can outrun, outgun and be more comfy on my XL than any of the other bikes that I own, and am getting ready to roll the speedo on it here soon, so for me, there is no XL hate.

subwoofer question was accurately answered in several previous posts, however i can lend a hand.
will sub set ups work on a bike, yes.
the yes has a catch, they are very expensive to build and set up correctly, therefore they are out of range for all but the SUPER die hard enthusiast or the competitor.
they require power, both in amplifier watts, and supply voltage for those amps, which usually means charging system mods and extra batteries, that along with the expense of having the proper enclosure designed and built, then painted, then the right amp and tuning AND the bag space you loose, and there is no ONE SIZE fits all.
hope that helps.
