where would you mount an amplifier? without one you will likely hear nothing at hiway speed
The wind sounds so much better on your nice ride man. It's just my humble opinion like many others but I don't think it could be done without detracting from the beauty of your bike. But it's your ride and you do what you want too her. I hope someone can better help you with suggestions

was thinking of doing highway bars, mounting the speaker's on top of them, then in the middle of the bar where it hooks up to the frame, hanging a small tool bag and putting the amp and the wires in there. then putting the remote in the corner of my bars by the left riser. but i want black speakers. i have seen systems by Boss that are'nt to bad but i see mixed reviews. So maybe something by Boom audio instead. Want something that has a radio and can with bluetooth and use my mp3 player

some amps have a bluetooth port built into them. i think you need to purchase their receiver to make it plug and play. i believe the cerwin vega amps are so equipped. i also believe gannicus(a senior guru here) posted a usb style adapter that plugs directly into amp. keep reading the threads. the more you learn the better your outcome will be
Freak. Id recommend a little of both. We are on the verge of perfecting a setup for non fairing bikes. Shoot me a msg. I will let ya know what we are working on.

I went down this road after I traded my Streetglide for a Heritage. I really missed my tunes, so I did a lot of research and experimentation. The best option for me was a pair of J&M MHAS speakers mounted by the handlebar grips. These were loud enough to be heard at highway speed, waterproof, and easily controlled by my thumb. After awhile I wanted more and mounted a fairing, amp and Hertz speakers, no comparison!
Freak show thats pretty much what we have been working on. The key is trying to find the the best can and speaker matchup. Right now the most troublesome issue is, we are trying to do pro audio with our system and finding the right size cans for the horns. But as far as just putting in a 5.25 speaker in the cans we have that pretty much 100% down. But we are trying to find something that you can truly hear at 80mph.
