Default This or that?

I'm about to upgrade my system and want to go with the 7.1 speakers. Need to know if anyone has run these speakers and switched to something and was happier with something other than the 7.1. I'll be running a Fosgate 300x2 amp and stock radio for now.

IMO you won't find a better quality speaker than the 7.1" and with the PBR300x2, it's a great sounding combination.

I love Polk speakers but with the issues they've had as of lately with the tweeter stalks becoming seperated, I shy away from recommending them.

What mods will I have to do with the 7.1's? The stock speakers are 5.25 and that seems like a pretty big jump in size.

Sorry if its a dumb question, I'm just new to this Street Glide thing.

no mods. take your stock speakers and adapters out, put your biketronics supplied adapters rings in, put your speakers in, plug them back in, turn your radio on

only dumb questions are the ones that don't get asked...
