It works ☺ in the accessories

Unbeatable for the price. The brackets were too small for my 1 1/4" handlebars. So I made new brackets so no big deal. The brackets are temporary just to make sure it works, I'll have a better idea later. The volume isn't very loud with the windshield off so I put the windshield back on to try it out and it sounds better at 60-65mph it's better than nothing or what was there.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • poorly thought out

Don't expect too much

Good price good quality. I expected too much from the product. Installed on a 2000 Fatboy, slightly audible at slower speeds (up to about 40 mph). Freeway speed can be a bit noisy, but songs are not recognized. I guess when I take the windshield off I don't hear anything at all. I gave 3 stars because the product works as intended and works well, it's just not worth it on a louder bike or at higher speeds and only getting 1 star.

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not the best

Decent quality for the price

Good speakers for your bike and for you. Gives you more than enough wire to power your battery. So if you're worried about it reaching the power supply, you'll be fine, I actually had to cut some of my length as it was too long. As for "waterproof", I have to question that statement. I left my motorcycle unlocked and sure enough it rains occasionally in the Midwest. Luckily it was only a small drop, but after that the quality of the speakers wasn't the same. Bass and mids were "chopped off" at…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than other picks

Not bad for the price, but I also see a downside.

I bought it and it was installed by my mechanic who I go to to have it turn on and off when I turn the bike on and off. Not sure how this can drain the battery due to the watch on it, but it's not uncommon for you to get something like this. The sound is pretty good. With a big enough windshield, I can hear it even at highway speeds. I can connect without any problems and the quality is pretty good. It all depends on the price. Well worth the money for what you get. Although I see that as a…

It offers excellent value for money

So I bought it for my traveler as a low cost test run to see if I was ready to invest in a fully featured system. It doesn't take long to install and I have a tiny USB stick that I use most of the time. Did about 3,000 miles on it, including two trips down 95 from Virginia to Florida. Of course I have a big old road disc, but the speed is in the triple digits, in a three-quarter helmet, with earplugs, I still hear it (barely, but still). I probably wouldn't recommend using it without a…
