half helmet stock radio and speakers, no problems

 

+1 all I have to do is adjust the volume every now and then depending on the song being played.

 

The key to hearing the stereo is wear ear plugs as Jerm21 said . that knocks out all the wind noise
. Only way i will ride the super slabis with plugs in. I use the cheap disposable from work.

 

Gonna be different for everyone based on windshield height, your height, helmet type/fit, earplugs. I couldn't hear it well with my XL HJC FF, but I hear it a lot better now that I got a L HJC FF, which cut a lot of wind noise. I hear it better without earplugs. I wore them before, but haven't had to with new helmet.

 

Completely stock stereo and I can hear it perfectly at 80 mph.

 

wear a half helmet and I do have a tall wind shield , bought the bike used so not sure about any upgrades but have the hk unit and sounds great at any speed and with the right song gets cranked up

 

Hogtunes with tweeter no amp G4 ipod half helmet 6.5 recurve shield no problems.

 

What pipes are you running? I have the stock head unit and just added the BOOM speakers and am happy with them. I had 6.5inch 4 ohm speakers that I wasn't really happy with. I can hear my speakers at 80 MPH with Bub TDs.

 

I have NO problem hearing the stereo system. But without a tach, I wouldn't know that the V & H true duals & SE slip-ons were making noise !!

 

Have upgraded speakers on my classic and with earplugs, no problem. Without earplugs wind noise and engine noise create a very distorted sound. Only issue with earplugs is you need to turn the sound up and then it can be interesting watching the neighbours as you drive by.
