Rear Speakers on a '91 Venture Royale?

[OldGazer]

I'm starting to put together my winter project list, and one thing I would like to do is add rear speakers to my '91 Venture Royale 1300. A riding buddy has a Kawasaki Venture XII that has some sweet looking speakers mounted to the tour pack luggage rack. I'd like to do something like that, but I'm open to suggestions.

 

TIA

I got a 91 VR also and will be watching this thread.

Unless you want to cut them into the trunk, you could maybe put them in the lids to the bags. Buy the speakers from a Voyager XII and then wire them in sounds like it might be one of the best ideas, and it came from you!

 

Google "outdoor speakers" and you will get a lot of ideas. Most are pretty big, but here is one I found, and it is made by Yamaha!

Yamaha NS AW150 Speaker

 

 

Hope the link works. A decent sized speaker will give better sound than the tiny things that were in the voyager. Might find something smaller for sure, but I hope it is a thought starter!

I wonder how it would handle inclement weather?

If talking about the Yamaha speaker I mentioned, it is meant for outdoor use. I would think any intended for that use, would hold up as well as speakers for a motorcycle normally?

My 84 had speaker boxes mounted at each front corner of the trunk. They were nounted on a bar that went in and mounted to the trunk rack. Still got them somewhere but boxes were destroyed in wreck. I have tried to find a box to do that with but no luck.

I have a Kawasaki Voyager the speakers work pretty good in Fact I might know where a guy could get a rack and speakers from. Message me and we can chat.
