Default Stereo balance control?

Hi,

I just purchased an '06 SG and the right speaker is much louder than the left. Is there a balance control to adjust the sound, becuase I sure can't find it? I was just wondering before I tear into the fairing to check the speakers.

Thanks

Push in on the volume up/down switch on the bars. It should take you to the functions that you need.....

Thanks for the reply. I tried that and could only find the fade control which is diabled, since I don't have the rear speakers. I am not quite sure where else to look.

Did you find the Bass and Treble adjustment?
If not you need to cycle through all the controls.

If it's not there then it's time to visit the dealer...

Yes, I found the Bass, Treble, and Fade controls. I guess I will take a ride to the dealer. I can hear a little bit of sound from the left side. I am hoping for a loose connection if there are no controls.
Thanks again.
