Default Handle bar speakers

Any recommendations on handle bar speakers? Is Boss any good? Is Boom worth the money?

I have never heard a good bar type speaker that sounded good even when amplified. A set of lowers with speakers will sound much better.

I agree a set of lowers will be much better. U can stick the amp in the saddle bag. Check out this for lowers. I just found this the other day. And they come painted in vivid black.

Not a bad price but still need modified for speakers. I got a set of lowers off fleebay for $125 with speaker mounts already in place. Have them on my bike now and they are painted also. Speakers drop right in.
