Default custom stereo build with pictures
Well we are building kind of a one off stereo system which is different and I havent seen many like this or any really I could be wrong. My inner fairing I have Focal 6.5's KRX2's with tweeters molded into my fairing. For a while I had subs in my bags which were amazing sitting there but once you got going obviously you couldnt hear them. So my buddy jamie from Boomers and I came up with this idea. Also we are using Focal KRX2's in the bags with tweeters. I will post some pics along the way basically everything is done now everything is leaving for paint monday.

The side cover there aren't any speakers on it we just molded the side cover to the bags so it is all one piece instead of two pieces. All the speakers are in the bags.
