Hey everyone,
I’m looking to upgrade the audio system on my Harley Davidson Road Glide and I’ve been doing some research on speakers, but I’d love to hear from fellow riders about their experiences.
What I’m Looking For
Sound Quality: I want something that can handle highway speeds without losing clarity.
Compatibility: I need speakers that fit well with my bike’s existing system.
Installation: Ideally, I’d like something straightforward to install, or at least insights on what to expect.
Questions I Have
Which brands do you recommend?
Are there specific models that stand out?
How is the sound performance in different riding conditions?
Any tips for installation or setup?
Conclusion
I appreciate any input you can share. It’s all about enhancing the ride for me, and good music makes a huge difference. Thanks in advance for your help!
I recently installed a set of Rockford Fosgate speakers on my Road Glide. The sound quality is fantastic, especially at highway speeds! Highly recommend them!
If you’re looking to upgrade the speakers on your Road Glide, start by removing the fairing. You’ll need a T25 Torx screwdriver, a socket set, and a flathead screwdriver. Make sure to disconnect the battery before starting!
Absolutely, start with high-quality brands like Rockford Fosgate or JBL. They offer good clarity and durability. Also, remember to use marine-rated speakers if you ride in wet conditions!
Yes, most local motorcycle shops carry them. Just call ahead to check their stock. Another tip is to have a friend help you, especially when handling the fairing.
Having a friend is a solid point, whiteeric. I’ve seen a lot of folks struggle during the fairing removal alone. What are some common mistakes to avoid?
