Radio
What would cause the speakers to stop working? First time it happen yesterday was just the fronts. Turned the bike on after work they all worked. Then on the ride home they all quit working. If I turn the radio off and back on they work for a minute then go back out. Any ideas.
thanks

Sounds like the head unit or amplifier is starting to fail. if it were a loose connection, it would be hit and miss when it decides to work or not, but if it consistently works right after restarting and then quits working, either of those two pieces are failing. The bike model and year would be helpful.

The factory HK radios are prone to failure.
They light up and appear to function but there's no output.
I think this results from broken solder leads/traces on the circuit board.
You can have it repaired (and upgraded if you choose) at http://www.ironcrossaudio.com/
Or you can replace it for a bit more $$.
