Making a templet as we speak.. Only problem is there so many different risers, bars, and trees.. So may have to be order by measurements.. Have not decided yet..

I can't do a trade. It will cost me the cost of the unit for the bracket and that is not doable for me. I thought since I helped you out with all those pics of teh foot clutch and stuff you might jsut hook me up. I am but a mere peon employee of a motorcycle shop. It's not like I won it or anything.

I love wrenching and building things for our bikes.. We all help each other out.. That's why I have stayed on these forums do to all the help I have gotten and given..

The thing that I like the most about having the speakers mounted in the stock location is that they are right at ear level on the road. Since I don't ride with a windshield, I am not sure if moving them down low is actually a good idea as I am sure it will greatly impact my ability to hear them. How's the sound on yours down there Fireman? I know when I had a set on my crash bars i could hear nothing from them on the freeway.

I think they are in the best spot because the sound waves are pointed right at your body and not at your arms and air. i rode it without the windshield and I cant run them turned all the way up.. Way to loud and I had an 3/4 helmet. Warg rode next to me today and I think he said that he could hear them riding down interstate 20. My girlfriend rode with me and said that they rock and I block a lot of the sound. The brackets are mounted between the risers and the riser bushings. So they can be taken off in about 20 mins.

The sound was good from about 2 car lengths back today. I like this mounting better than any i've seen. It keeps the lines of the bike clean and keeps with the "less is more" style that i like. Good stuff. Adding to the list, LOL!

Does the bottom of the mount go around the risers or is it just the riser bolts going through the mount and the risers mounted on top of it?
