Somehow this didn't help anyone;
"If HD can't figure out their own BA Stage 1 and Stage 2 proper flashes without breaking something else then I guess the answer to your question would be a resounding no. It's a clusterf*ck to say..."
"$2495!!! For boom audio crap?
your buddy has more money than sense!"
Nice talk.... but don't take it personnel.

HD wouldn't know what to do with my bike I'm afraid. Over 2000 w of top notch audio and I wouldn't let them touch it anyways; That has nothing to do with your dealer, that's a blanket statement for all dealers.
Hope you realize this is all in fun.. nothing personal.

Love a good chat..So with that being said.. If your dealer can assist with the flash it would be gratefully appreciated.because I have tried many combinations and that what Rockford Fosgate suggested and others..but the EQ is still on at some point. ..low output sitting still but really sucks riding...it has to be a certain way to do the flash settings not just what we set them at..because I have set mind like other and no results. .somebody somewhere does know the answer. and I don't care where they're at ! As long as they shares the information.
Thanks for any suggestions from your dealer. .

I bought some aftermarket lids for my 2014 SGS that accept 6x9 speakers. I figured i would hop on the old forum, and find out which way to go with amps, speakers, and such.
I read the start of the thread, and flashing was cool. Fast forward,,, and flashing sucks. Ok. Got that,,,, no flashing. Also, at the start of the thread, boom audio was over priced junk. That has not changed.
After lots of reading, I'm not sure weather to crap or wind my watch.
UltraNutz, is there an aftermarket stereo shop that has a good reputation, that you would advise me to call?
I will call them. Ask, "what do I need?" And then buy it, install it, and go riding.

They are "hand laid fiberglass", and have a diagonal step across the top. I just looked again, and could not find the brand name. They are usually $299 to $325, and it says they were designed to fit Polk 691 speakers. I got them for $200, shipped. I intend to have vinyl covers made, so I wont paint them.
Do you guys recommend the Harley wiring harness? Or is there an aftermarket harness that is recommended?

The only real solution I have at this point is not what most want to hear.
