Yes. Change the pods to these and they drop right in. I'm running the moto's with these now. Great quality and they sound awesome in there.

Do they make those for 2014? If so looks like the way to go. Thanks for the reply.

Hey GAN how would you compare the 602's compared to the 7.1's.

Mike-

The Moto 602's are just flat out awesome speakers! I've had several sets of 7.1's including the Pros. (Still have the 7.1 rear speaker pods) Both awesome speakers as well. In comparison both speakers have a very different acoustical sound. I guess it depends on which sounds better for the type of music you listen to. For my personal taste in music the 602's sound better to my ears. I'm partial to bass and the 602's have more bass than the 7.1's. Now a lot of guys will say that it makes no difference after 60 mph. Because you can't hear the bass anyway. I was that same guy until I purchased the Moto's. Mike you can actually still hear the bass at 75mph with these speakers. Nuff said.

Elroy June builds these things from the ground up. I'm pretty sure he can make them for the 14 up bikes. I'd give him a call to verify.

Gann,
I'm all about the bass too brotha and at 80 mph, thus I am looking for your guidance. My limited experiment has involved the Rokker XX 6.5 and it is loud as hell with good sound, and the Focal 6.5 which are about as clear as you can get but I need some serious base without gutting my entire system. Can't do lowers at this point as I have these pimpy all fo sho engine guards that won't host such set up.
Should I give the 602s a shot or should I hold out and eat Ramen for a while and get the Kevlar Focals? Other options? Putting amp in the bags but that won't help my 80 mph problem. Keep in mind that I am stuck with the infotainment HU thus am generally limited to what is pushing the noise.

Thanks!!!!

T.

Sell the focals. If I remember correctly those are the ones you got a great deal on. Sell them for what they are worth and jump on the Moto's if you prefer a little bass in your music. You will need a stronger amp than the JM amp to push the Moto's. That amp is weak at 4 ohms. For a two speaker system jump on the Cerwin Vega B52 amp. Four or more speakers jump on the Soundstream PN4.1000D. I had a set of those high dollar focals at one time. Very nice speakers with no bass. Plenty loud and clear but no bass. I sold mine!!

The Arc 602 have the most bass on. 6.5 that I've heard. Other speakers - Focsls, BT Pros, etc do have some better clarity. Same goes for the PN4.1000D....it's a warm hard hitting sound, but Amps like the Arc Moto 600.4 have better sound quality but just don't hit hard regardless of how you EQ your radio. There's just something about the 1000D and TN4.900 that produces great bass. So when u combine the 602's and 1000D you get some serious thump.
