Default Rideloud speaker bracket

Ok I just joined this forum although review it all the time whenever i need information on a product or a review. Anyway I see that you guys have beat to death this whole speaker thing. I have a 06 road glide and i have chosen to go with the J&M amp, Ride loud 6x8 bracket and infinity speakers.

Here is my issue, i ordered from ride loud through the web site using pay pay last week. This is after i tried to send him a couple of emails that for some reason he did not return. Did i just get screwed, has anyone dealt with this dude.

Yeah l looked on the forum and saw that a couple of guys used the rideloud kit to upgrade thier speakers so i figured i could not go wrong with using the biggest speakers i could with an amp. the last post i saw related to rideloud was in 09. I hope this guy did not go out of business and left his website up, or worse just taking payment without sending the product. I should of probably known better after he did not return an email. Keep my fingers crossed.

Still nothing yet and I just sent them another email. Is there no one on the forum that has had dealings with this company. What a bummer.

Thanks for reaching out to him for me, I really appreciate it. The issue is I already bought speakers to go with the brackets, and i actually still want the product. I got no hard feelings, and would not make an issue if he was a little back ordered if he would just return an email. I guess i will give it a couple more days for some type of a reply. Thanks again.

Well we have been in communication and you are right, he is a decent guy just going through some crap. I will give you guys a review of the product after the install. I cannot see this set up not kicking *** once i amp those speakers with the J&M kit.

Despite your lackluster review, I am actually interested in those brackets...and maybe the speakers too. How much $$

I have been trying to find anyone else who made those 5X7 brackets for roadglides and been unable to as rideloud's website must be down and I assume he went out of business. Not real surprised as his product seemed very expensive for brackets...figured he must be billet machining them.
