Kicker PS5250 Speakers
Has anyone installed these speakers on their bike?

Do they fit and sound OK? Is it worth upgrading to these from the stock speakers? I am going to pick up a 2012 Street Glide this week and from what I hear the stock speakers are not that great. I am not planning on adding any separate amplifiers, or other speakers.
Thanks

Unless you add an amp, new speakers, tweeters, etc..., your not going to notice much of a difference in my opinion. You may think you do because you spent all this money and time installing it. I upgraded my speakers (not with these) and it sounds great (better than stock) sitting in the garage but on the road, it's about the same. So my advice/opinion is, save your money on the stereo upgrades until you can't find anything else on the bike to upgrade... Congratulations on the new one.

I installed the 4 ohm 525 kickers in my 05 electraglide. They were an imporvment over stock and I enjoy them, especially because I got mine cheap from a guy that had them new in the box but needed money. Spring for some dynamat though because I really think it helps with some of the distortion caused by the inside of the fairing.
I know a freind of mine really enjoyed my speakers the other day when he was riding behind me. He was about 4 or 5 bike lengths behind me and thought my stereo sounded great.
