I guess if your bike is primarily a poker run machine, it might be alright. I need my bags to hold stuff. The work looks excellent, just not for me. Voted 'No, takes up too much...'

a 5 way speakers is not for loudness . if you want bass on a 6/9s 2 ways is better. all the time.

I have a the same set up on mine with all alpine components. I can still get a hoodie,leather jacket,clear visor, guantlet gloves and misc tools at the bottom with still some room to spare. I admit the most I will ever need to take with me is probably a weekends worth or cholthing. If in ever need more there is the tour pak or luggage rack. There is nothing like being able to clearly hear your tunes at 80mph!

It varies I charge my clients anywhere from $500-1k for a complete installation on a bagger and which my cost includes all the wiring and materials needed. Equipment is seperate. I have also done some complete bags where guys have shipped me their hard bags and I have done the 6x9 fab work and amp rack mounting and shipped it back so that would be a bit more due to shipping. If you have any questions please pm me. Thanks guys!

i would like to see some details on how to make the grills/holes for the speakers i'm a bit skeptical about starting to drill into my bags without seeing it. i really want to get some low end sound because my 6.5s scream so i want some mid/low sound. what would you guys suggest? Massive Audio makes some 8" midranges that i think would be a great solution but i'm not 100% sure. would the speakers have to be waterproof cause i think those have a paper cone.
