No Beiber or Spears on my play lists. I may have an occasional Eminem or some old school rap like Naughty by Nature. Tons of rock and roll and a bunch of other mismatch shit from old classic rock.

Was Beiber even out back then? I don't even remember when that little pansy even hit the charts.

That Caveman guy is an amatuer at posting pics... but it will do. LOL Some of the pic titles were a bit off, and he didn't put up a few pics, but I'm sure you guys don't care.

He also didn't add that, the job was 12 hours of working on that bike. I had a Dr appt in the middle and was gone for 2hours so combined that is 22 man hours. The stereo mods were a big big chunk.

The zip tie wiring wasn't going to fly on those lower subs. You only see the wire at this point on one side (right). The left side is hidden behind the clutch cable. It's what I prefer to say... they have it instructed for the dumbasses. I can't leave it at that, I'm way too nuerotic about things.

not quite. his stereo is no match for mine.

I have done a few things the same however you are kind of limited on the some as they are certain items that are both functional and somewhat good looking. I have always been a function over form kind of guy but if the functional item also looks cool, well then, Duh, Winning.

If you had earbuds cranked-up loudly, I agree it could drown-out a siren - but I bet an onboard stereo blaring loudly on top of wind-noise would be just as likely to if not more so.

Don't know that to be a fact, but I do know that with regular earplugs (and a full-face vs. half-helmet) you'll generally hear outside sounds *better* since plugs filter out so much of the wind-noise. I bet it's the same deal w/ buds (as long as it's not cranked way up).

It would fun to roll around rocking ABBA or something totally ridiculous & unlikely just to see all the expressions though!

edit: In fairness, my perspective is pretty skewed towards quick riding out in the country on a sportbike, not cruising behind a full-fairing where I'm sure onboard tunes work better & make more sense. One of these days....

As far as earbuds being breaking the law -

that would be the least of my law-enforcement worries if/when I eventually hit the trooper jackpot at a more.... spirited point in my typical rides.
