jurob Posted August 22, 2011 #1 Posted August 22, 2011 I plan on installing an aftermarket stereo. Looking for a how to for wiring it. My factory radio/cassette work fine, but only one speaker works and just doesn't have the sound quality I would like. I saw a 4x6 speaker install that I also plan on copying. My bike came with a blank that goes in place of the stereo which I plan on installing an aftermarket head unit in place of the stocker that I remove.
dingy Posted August 22, 2011 #2 Posted August 22, 2011 Here is a PDF of showing my heavily modified 83 Venture with an 88 wiring system in it. This schematic has non stock wiring in it. Towards the center of this schematic is the radio system, not much to hooking it in. On a stock 83, there are two in line fuses feeding the radio, one for primary power that is only on when key is on and second for constant power to maintain memory. Speaker hookups are straight forward. Just remove the the dash unit and the radio & amplifier box underneath and mount your new radio. I put one in that does not have a cd in it, but does have a USB and SD chip slot. It's not weatherproof, but I have a cover for it, if it's going to rain, not pretty, but functional. Gary

dacheedah Posted August 9, 2014 #10 Posted August 9, 2014 My after having boats forever, a marine radio lasts much longer with a cover and the covers a re much easier and cheaper to replace.
