painterman67 Posted January 10, 2010 Share #2 Posted January 10, 2010 Im not sure about how to go about getting tunes on your bike. Some of the other folks will come along soon enough and give you a plethera of answer or suggestions. I just wanted to say welcome to the site and way to go. Jumping on in the deep end so to speak and asking away. Wish I could be of help but welcome aboard. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingy Posted January 10, 2010 Share #3 Posted January 10, 2010 http://www.venturerider.org/forum/showthread.php?t=43984 Look at this thread for some speaker ideas. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monty Posted January 10, 2010 Share #4 Posted January 10, 2010 I have a Sony cd player in the left door of my fairing, and some after market speakers behind the grills. Sounds pretty good, but you can't really play a cd when you're moving...it skips. My cd player does have a plug-in, in the front, to add an MP3 player though.

Condor Posted January 10, 2010 Share #5 Posted January 10, 2010 I have a Sony cd player in the left door of my fairing, and some after market speakers behind the grills.

If you have a Standard the speakers are already in the dash even though there isn't a radio/intercom/tape installed. I'd suggest installing a good marine AM/FM/CD, with an MP3 jack, where the tape deck usually sits in a Royale. I've seen some really nice installs done. There is also a flip open cover available to keep things weather proof. WEST MARINE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingy Posted January 10, 2010 Share #6 Posted January 10, 2010 Here is picture of cheap radio I installed in place of stock one. Was $20 at local junkyard. Took some McGyvering to close up cover that had stock radio in it. I have a separate cover for parking when it might rain. Gary Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
