Has anyone ever dealt with them before? I looked at the reviews for them and it scared the s#!t out of me. Hopefully there are guys who have had multiple dealings with them and can reassure me. I read some horror stories.

Maybe I am wrong in which case I would order them tomorrow.

TIA

Mike

The Biketronics kit comes with EVERYTHING you need; amp, amp mount, wiring, speakers, speaker adapters (they are angled and tilt the speaker towards the rider), and grills.

IMO this is a great kit and can be upgraded to a 4 speaker setup (running another set of 4 ohm speakers in parallel). The only complaint I have is the speakers. For me, and this is my opinion, they are to bright. Some people like that, I'm on the opposite side of that fence.

Here are the Titan II's pushed by 200 watts:


I will have actual road videos of all these speakers soon, just ironing out the bugs of capturing audio while at speed

HDDoobie please let me know when you get the Kappas from onlinecarstereo. I am a bit hesitant to order from them after reading some of the reviews.

Thanks,

Mike

I think that should have been screamingskulls instead. sorry.

Ok one last question I will make my choice. If I'm going to spend the money may as well get some thing good. Here is what I have narrowed it down too
BT2180 amplifier with our BT465 2015 and up Titan II 6.5" RoadGlide speaker kit. From Bikertronics
or Level IV from Soundzcustomz
Complete plug & play kit for stock Harley Touring – Focal – Soundz Customz Special Edition 165KRC & 250 watt 2 channel Amp with wire harness & speaker adapters & oscilloscope tuned.

Mine are scheduled for delivery Thursday so I'll update you. I've ordered from them before and never had any issues.

Mingo, I have the BT4180 (4 channel amp) and the Arc Moto 6.5s in my fairing, then the BT 5x7s in the bag lids. Link to a song in my signature. I now have the line levelers installed, vs the "Flash" It's more than 500.00 though, for 500.00 you should be able to put a nice system in only the fairing.
