Posts: 27 Owings Mills, MD | If you are looking for another stereo option for your 8 Ball check out the JBL PRV170. I ordered this unit from Amazon and after a little dash console hacking, it fits on the bike perfectly. It is waterproof and it comes with its own 4x45 amp. It has a aux RCA input, USB input, am/fm and Bluetooth modes. I didn't use it for its amp, as I'm using the rockford pbr300. I haven't done a sound test yet. I will check back in and let you know how it sounds after I get my mirror pods back from HMD. It should sound pretty good running 4 alpine spr50's.

Too bad they don't have an external interface that could be adapted to the visions handlebar controls. It can be very dangerous to take your eyes off the road to make adjustments. Good luck/ride safe..... |

Posts: 27 Owings Mills, MD | Spanky Mike at HMD is making the pods now for the speakers. I should have them back next week. I put mirrors on my bars. The stock mirrors were useless since I added the apes. Lova I did have to chop up the bottom of the center dash, the dremel works well for this project. |
