You would be wrong then.

Madison’s 115th Fighter Wing will be getting the new F-35 so things will be hopping for years to come. I grew up in Brooklyn during the Vietnam war. Navy jets from Floyd Bennet Naval Station would blow our windows out, at times. I know what a Sonic Boom sounds, and feels like.
My friend is a retired USAF fighter pilot. He calls sonic booms the “Sound of Freedom “.

I never said it was an everyday occurrence. But it's very common to hear them flying around, and it's fun to watch their vapor trails. Central Wisconsin is mostly rural, so it doesn't bother anybody.

Another rare occurrence near Black River Falls is a nudist, biker sex camp. http://campncn.com/
Why they would put a nudist camp in a state that is below freezing most of the year is beyond me? Probably could observe a lot of shrinkage.
If you go there, bring your penicillin.

I want to address a few of the messages I've received. With permission of one of the guys that sent me something, basically he has spent a ton of time and money to build a great system, but can't get all the fine-tuning done to make it exactly what it should be. In his case he's using a Rockford dsr1, I have no experience with that processor but I'm sure the conglomeration of all the guys that will be here we can really make that thing sound great!!! And learn about the DSR1
Few things to know
The traveling trophies are more of a bragging rights thing than anything. We do the sound off part as part of the M&G, but it is far from the point of the get together. This is just a bunch of guys getting together to HELP EACH OTHER OUT, and share knowledge and experience with motorcycle audio.
Please don't come here nervous about the competition part, again it's all in fun.
Another thing, especially pending on the weather is that we have all summer to ride, we have 1-3 days to do fairing off, tuning, laptop type of stuff and that's the heart of us all getting together. Please post up, or message me with questions.
Kris

Sounds really good Kris
I will be bringing my bag of goodies, laptop and my ears.
I have been doing some tweaking on my system recently and should be good to go by the time for the MNG so my ears and goodies will be available to asist who ever needs help.

Sounds good guys.....

Let me be the first one to draw the ticket for test and tune. I promise I won't make anybody push start my bike. Lol

My lower pods are here, just got my lower speakers today. Still have to check fitment though. A few more things to gather and its fairing off again. I'm not looking forward to pulling everything again, but it's the price we pay......

No push starting for me 2 was enough but at least you had your kill switch on not like someone (Kris)
I picked up a small jump pack that lives in my bike ever since the Milwaukee debacle.

I just checked fitment on the speakers, they'll fit my lower fairings.
