Default Boom windshield audio (RK)
Picked it up yesterday at a local dealer who gave me 20% off, which I was happy about. After reading all of the install tips on here, along with the terrible instructions, I was a little unsure if I should install it myself- especially knowing the nacelle would have to be split.

Anyway- I decided to do it... it took me an hour. Very very simple. For anyone who is unsure about the install- its quite simple really.

Haven't taken it out yet but initially, it sounds good.

I'm interested to see what you think of the sound and volume after you've rode the bike.
