Thanks for posting that as I had forgotten about it. Just sent you an order for those V-twin CVO bags.

Thanks Brian. I just got off the phone with Matt, placing my order. I did not know about the forum discount code, but I did ask him for any discount that I might be able to get as a forum member. Looks like he only gave me about a 3%. Also, I might have just purchased your last 2nd amp mount kit in stock.

Feel free to have Matt bump up my discount.

My system:
(2) 200/2 JL Audio amps $438
(1) pair of Poineer TS-D1602R 6.5 $63
(1) pair of Poineer TS-D6902R 6x9 $74
Total $575 bought new off internet

After hearing it at Sturgis, I'll put my 400 watt four speaker system against the orange 500 watt eight speaker JM Rokker bike any day!

I can find a great deal on the speaker like you, but nothing close on the amps.. so.. you are able to find these for $219/each? Where?

Also, did you mount both amps in the fairing?

You would be better off with 2 pbr300x2's. You can get two of them for under $300. Less money and more wattage with those 4 ohm speakers. And both can be installed in the fairing with the Hogtunes 2nd amp bracket. And with the pbr amps, you keep your FM.

Yep. I ordered mine from Amazon a couple of days ago. Should be on my doorstep Friday. If I don't end up working this weekend I'm going to try to get most of my install done.

I ordered from Powersport Parts. At the time they had the lowest price. They shipped it pretty fast and by UPS.
