Default Ultra Classic Question

How do you turn on the rear speakers???

I have a 2010 as a rental while my gear drive is being installed.

I'm liking this bike.

maybe the radio has the fader set all the way forward. Use the left toggle and push button to sellect fader, then adjust to center.

Better watch out; you're just a couple of posts away from saying you just bought a 2011 Ultra and loving it.

No, that switch is not the "Fader". That switch allows you to select speakers on/off for those instances that you are plugged in and wearin a helmet speaker system.

The fader is on the radio set up menu. Push the left side button (the volumn button) in....that will bring up a menu on the radio display...volumn, basss, treble, fader, etc.

Not sure they give you the owner's manual on a rental bike. Now when he buys that new 2011 Ultra? Yeah, it's included.
