| I have looked all over the forum for the size of the speakers with no luck j&m shows no size only the 2 Ohm rating and watt rating. as well tried to find the removal instructions and had no luck can someone post a link or do a writeup on it. Thanks ahead of time. I am trying to find us some good priced 2-3 way poly carb speakers that will fit as well as a amp that will fit in the trunk/cd changer hole. so far I have found 1 marine grade 4 channel amp that will fit it has to be smaller then 9x8x3 that will allow a little room fitment in the hole. or 2 small 2 channel amps on a mounting plate in the hole. look for marine grade amps and speakers guys we can do better then the J&M I know it! have a great holiday I am off to ride.

MotoMarc Not sure if you used the search function...but it brought up all sorts of info on speakers including the Ness Speaker/Amp combo. Also try thevmc.com - there's a thread there about an aftermarket system . Edited by luzzy 2008-05-26 11:53 AM | |||

| Ok went by the local shop today there a quality only shop Alpine etc. Alpine has just come out with the ktp-445 amp 45x4 rms amp it is extremely small 2x2x6 at most. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-ZfnXQDsXxsm/App/Product/Item/Main.aspx... It is ment to be a power pack and boost the power of a alpine unit with harness. I called Alpine tech dept and spoke with them they said it can be cut and spliced to any unit it is line level input with adjustment. this would fit in the trunk under everything (cubby hole) without any issues at all even weather wise and at $120msrp it is going to be hard to beat . speakers are a simple to change 15min rear and 25min front thats being carefull and taking your time. However these have not been released as of yet but were supposed to be on the market in march so any day now. Speaker selection is whatever you want cost wise from $29-$200 typical is $59-$99 there 5 inch hole opening speakers and there are tons to choose from I think 5 1/4 will work as well . I agree we will not get a ton of base out of anything we put in, but anything will be better then the stock speakers for sure. MotoMarc | |||

I was going to have Alpines put in my bike to save money, but went with the Focal's on the stereo shops recommendation. After that, I heard Alpines vs. Hogtunes on my Ultra I sold to my buddy. The Hogtunes were much better than the Alpines. And Focal's are much better than Hogtunes. Which means that you will ultimately not have very good speakers. The amp, yes, go for it...But Alpine speakers are just not all that good from what I have heard...You should be able to get the Focal's for $89/speaker. The stereo shop would only warranty the Alpines for 1 year, and they warrantied the Focal's for 3 years. Warranty for 3 years as in anything that happens is fully covered, labor, material, etc... Good luck, and keep us in the loop!!! If you get bass out of yours, I will drive my bike thru my stereo shops front window, lol... | |||

| Golfer When you say you want loud, what did your stock speakers sound like? when i play some digital i pod music like bob segar's against the wind at #20 it's crystal clear almost to loud. lower volumes don't work very well at speed's above 40 mph. however volume at 15 to 20+ is great. The system lacks base but mids to high's are very good. Am i the only one with rockin stock system?  Edited by sandman 2008-05-28 7:20 PM | |||

When I say loud, I mean, at 80 with stage1, I can hear the song perfectly. With a full face helmet on with the shield closed at 80, I can hear the song very well. If you heard my system, you would understand the problem with the stock system. That is the only way I can explain it. If you read the latest magazine article on the Vision, it was one of their biggest complaints. | |||

I wear an HJC, I just bought it new for $77.00 through Helmet Express, or something like that. They sent me an email about blow out prices, and that is certainly a blow out price. Shipping was free over $100, so I also got a spare cargo net, and a balaclava with chin guard and neck guard called a champa or something...Came in the mail fast, new, just as advertised. So, that is why I am no longer wearing my HJC snowmobile helmet, lol!!! I only wear the full face when going on long cold rides, or when the long ride has rain being a certainty...Other than that, I am in a $30 novelty halfy polo, or no helmet at all if the state lets me. The HJC motorcycle helmet sure is easier to see out of than my snowmobile helmet. The snowmobile helmet has a soft plastic, dual screen, and is pretty much needing to be replaced. You said the "O" word, he-he-he... | |||
