RE: Speakers in bags.
I am in the process of trying to do something like this on my rkc with leather bags. best buy, i think it was, has some outdoor speakers that look like they might mount on the outsides of the bags without a big hole, just 4 mounting holes. they come in black which is good, not sure of sound quality yet. will post a link later. i am trying to mount in the same place you are.....facing the wheel with 6x9s but do not want too big of a hole there and also trying to keep as much space in the bags as possible.

RE: Speakers in bags.
I suggest you get the Amplified speakers from J&M - they attach to the handle bars - I ran them on my RoadKing for 5 years - hooked up my Ipod to them - I didn't have to worry about space or being ripped off - they worked great - sounded great at 80 and I would spend the money again but I bought and Ultra - now I ma going soup up the radio system on it...........

RE: Speakers in bags.
Not to hijack your thread,but I justbought the 2 Wheel Tunes system from a guy for a great price.Anybody ever heard these? I'm working on repairing some used hard bags I bought for the RKC.It would be a good time to add the 6x9's and larger amp if the 2 Wheel Tunes are'nt sufficient...
