Yeah this radio mission cost me some cash. Got the brand new brackets and speakers had them installed for a week before going to j&m who suck by the way. Finally ended up swapping the hd deck and putting polk speakers with jm amp best set up yet I got 230 into brackets and infiniti speakers would let go for 150

Does that include the speaker grills? How many ohms resistance were those infinity speakers? I have an 05 bike so going 2ohm is too low...but I've got several friends who've managed to install 4 ohm speakers without frying the stock deck.

I will clarify. J&m speakers suck I have the amp still in although I have nothing to compare the amp aside from the bracket being engineered well. Speakers are absurd priced and the new ones are even more ridiculous

This is my set up. I tried J&M kit with 7.25 speakers and amp. Better than stock but sounded like loud clock radio. Hooked up Polk 6.5 and kept the J&M grills and wired all tweeters together. Biggest improvement i did was to get rid of the HD deck and install sony with biketronics kit. night and day difference and so many options to control the sound and amp with the sony deck. Also hooked up Titans 6.5 to compare to POLK and POLK sounded better. Polk also has crossover's and cost about 100 bucks think they are mm651's. J&M new rokker speakers are like a million bucks and now have crossovers that the supposed best speakers in the world J&M 7.25's did not. WAYYYYYY overpriced crap. did not compare amp to anything but i am sure someone with some tech savvy could get something similar for way less. Bracket works good though i guess and has not blown up.
