Default Best 2 channel amp inside RG fairing

Your opinion... Best 2 channel amp that will fit on top of the radio in a Road Glide Fairing?

I don't think the amps go on top of the radio in a Road Glide. I think you have to mount them on the side with a bracket.

I am very happy with my RF PBR300x2. I used Velcro and it fits perfect on top of my JVC head unit in my RG.

Pioneer74 is correct. you have VERY little wiggle room on top of the head unit on a roadie for anything

If you want FM reception - PBR300x2

If you don't care about FM reception - SoundStream PN2.350D

Thanks guys!! I have always had batwing fairings, but my brother just bought a RG and we were trying to figure out some audio upgrades but there is not as much room in there as it would appear!

Who makes this bracket that Pioneer74 is talking about?

Thanks for the input guys!

Fugly's are a bike unto itself when the fairing is concerned. I'm just a Batwing guy. Might be best to go to a specialty site.

on an aftermarket head unit, yes you can get it on top of the head unit. With stock, no way no how.

The amp will fit perfectly between the glove box and inner fairing

I've never used a bracket for these whether batwing or sharknose. industrial Velcro from home depot works wonders but make sure when you stick that amp down, it's where you want it. It'll take a screwdriver to pry it apart. :-)
