I was given a Amazon gift card at work so I ordered these Lexin LX-S3 and they should be here tomorrow. I have never had sound on a bike so I figured this could be an entry setup to determine if Ill enjoy it or not, plus if they suck Amazon will pretty much accept any return.
Does anyone have any experience with these bluetooth speakers? If not Ill use this post to place some pics and pros and cons of these for those out there like me who are looking to add sound to their Road King for the first time.
After riding with these for the past couple days I can say the following:
Construction is nice, seems like quality chrome and well built.
Wiring was easy, actually it has the same adaptor as my battery tender so I didnt need to run anything else to the battery.
The primary button works as the ON/OFF so just have to remember that since I have connected directly to the battery.
Sound is great when keeping it 50 MPH and under, outside of that you are dealing with wind and pipes.
I have the V&H Big Radius pipes so my bike is already loud but have no problem hearing with a 3/4 helmet with no windshield when commuting around town.
So these were listed on Amazon for $99 and then was offered at $12 discount through Amazon, not sure why, but that brought the cost down to $87 with free shipping. At this price I feel they are definitely worth it as nice commuter set of Bluetooth speakers.
Ill have to grab my wife's phone to do a video because it pauses the sound when trying to record a video on my phone. This will provide an idea of the quality with the bike running.
