I had trouble finding it the first time. Use a hyphen, r-blox. I bought some. Can't hurt to try it. I would like a little more bass anyway.

Is R-Blox made from asphalt or butyl rubber? Can't find info on their web site about it.

How about the added weight? Those fairing brackets are sometimes a problem just stock. Does this stuff add very much extra weight?

Dynamat is very light weight. Here's link on ebay to 4sq ft of Dynamat Extreme for $11.99 plus add shipping. That should be enough to do the job !

My experiances with Dynamat is when hot it looses its ablity to stay in one spot, and needs re-gluing with something. I would think it would be even more **** to loosing its grip in a fairing from all the road vibrations over that of a trunk or door panel of a car.
Having never used inside a speaker cabinet (basicly what your fairing is) I'm not real sure how well that will work over batten type insulation.

Any custom speaker enclosure builders out there?

Another one to try is a product called FatMat. I bought a roll for about $80, did my '04 F-150 (all 4 doors and the rear wall with 2 layers) and still have some left over. Now that this has been posted, I know what to do with the rest!

Thanks Blueflht

I used a product called Fat Mat to do my aftermarket fairing. it seemed to make the bass better and a few small rattles went away. it was fairly cheap too. we ended up doing it to my son's streetglide and it made a world of difference with his bigger speakers and amp.

here's where we bought it from: www.fatmat.com

I used dyna matt inside mine, dident really help out to much IMO, and its HEAVY, thier stuff is like lead, no issues with the brackets yet, its been a year, maybe its due to it cutting down on the vibration?

the rblox isnt heavy at all and when installed and rolled it sticks like cement. as best i can tell from research and smell its butyl rubber not asphalt. i also used 5 sq. ft to do my fairing so you might be short on the dynamat. at 19.99 for 10 sq. ft the r-blox is the way to go. split it with a friend 20$ each!
