i just got done installing a set of Polk MM 6501 components in my street glide.

i previously had a set of J&M 5.25 hi performance speakers
and a 200 watt amp..

well those were just not cutting it.

my buddy had installed the J&M 7.25 rokkers and 250 watt amp in his street glide and the sound was ok, but i was looking for more.

i have found it!
the Polks deliver crystal clear highs and great bass for being in the fairing
i mounted the tweeters in the top gauge holes, i eliminated the volt and air gauges and moved the fuel gauge to the bottom hole.

i have the crossovers mounted on top of my amp, which is just enough clearance

i also installed some foam in the fairing which i think helped a bit as well

i just cant get over how great these speakers sound.

i had my buddy (the one who has the J&M rokker setup) over and he was blown away at the sound..


if your looking for a quality setup definately take a look at the polk mm 6501 components. they are 2.7 ohm and you can find them for around $180

pics and video to follow

 

I am looking to upgrade from my 7.25 j&m's. I was happy but want more. You and others have sold me on these. My only question is, can I use the grills and mount the tweeters if I wanted? Can wait to see the pics as well.

 

MOMO'S ROCK. polk has done well on these speakers. i've been running momo's in my truck for 6 years, and still sound as good as day 1. feed them good clean power. enjoy....steve

 

Sounds like something I want to look into. Can't wait to see the details.

 

can't wait to see pics

 

Did your buddy ride your bike to listen to the audio?

My only concern was squashed when I looked at the Polk site and found a marine grade version speaker for the same dollar.
And Alpine is now making marine grade head units! I'm so there!
My $0.02
