RE: How to install a high performance stereo system in a Bagger!
Not sure yet Phil. If I go all out and finish the insides of the bagswith something custom, then i'll use the aluminum standoffs as templates and will have some billet ones made perhaps. I'll hammer out some finishing details as time permits. Thanks for the compliments though....

GM: Thanks for the pics/descriptions/explanations--frankly, I have almost no interest in the topic, but have to look and read about your project because of your combination of the foregoing.

That is really looking good! Hell, once done, mount a 12" flat panel to the inside of a lid of a tour pack, and you can then say you have a complete home entertainment system on wheels! (doubt if your wife would let ya park it in the living room though)
What I know about stereos and amps you could put in a thimble, but I like to watch the engineering of the project.

Hawg wired amps are class T. I'd stick an extra battery with a capacitor in the bag without the amp.

Yes they have 30Afuses oneach channel, but know that the fuses are set for maximum load which would be each side running bridged at 150wattsor combined at600 watts in 2 ohm load. I'm no electrical engineer, but running 75 per channel x 4 ohms should have it running around 20 amps and my buddy who owns a local stereo shop concurs. Nothing to worry about.
People normally run all kinds of accessories on these bikes included heated gloves, heated vests, heated handle bars, lighting kits, and other amplifiers like hawg wired (3 amps) and no issues. I'm sure that loading your bike up with theseaccessories places just as high of load on the bike and have never seen a problem. Have you?
