How can you have a stereo upgrade poll and not list Biketronics?

Have the ARC amp and coaxial speakers(5 1/4) in mine. Don't have enough ride time to give a good idea of how I'm liking the setup. Sounded real nice in the garage though

I have the arc mini amp KS125.2 with the HK head unit. The speakers have been changed to Sony Xplod's, 5.25 in the fairing, and I built some speaker pods from fiberglass that bolt into the fairing lowers to hold 6.5". The end result is impressive. Last week was the first night for a local bike night here, and I got to show off the system a bit. Most seemed impressed to hear such volume from a bike system.

I agree, I got the Biketronic's kit with Hog Tunes speakers.
The Sony radio does a great job.

I changed head several years ago ,for the CD, put in Biketronic Amp, front Arc Speakers with tweeters ,rear Hogtunes, with front Dyamax behind speakers . Now I can hear over all the ones I ride with.

p.s. YOU NEED TO ADD bIKETRONIC TO YOUR POLL. THEN I CAN VOTE.

I just "completed" an install. It consisted of a Sony CDX-M60UI marine grade receiver, Biketronics Titan XL 6 1/2 speakers with adapters, Hawgwired HSA470 Harley To Sony Radio Install Kit and Dynasourb behind the speakers. The installation looks great, handlebar controller works perfectly. System was just over $600. It took me less than 2 hours start to finish to install the unit, controller, and speakers. It sounds great, has plenty of volume and the receiver accepts 64gig jump drive. The reason i say "completed" is because I may in the future install an amp.
