When installing a quick-detach tour pak kit, I noticed one of my tweeter bubbles on the rear speakers was slightly collapsed. (I have the upgraded boom). I was thinking of putting duct tape at the end of a pencil or something and see if I could pull it out. Has anyone fixed this? Any suggested techniques?

 

use a rubber hose and apply vacume to it then you can pull the cone out.
If you have a clean hose you can suck on it to create the vacume

 

I really don’t know but if it was me I’d put it in the freezer for a bit to see if the temperature change would cause it to pop back into position.

 

Tx for the tips. I'll try a straw, then look for a hose that will fit through the grill, then if that doesn't work, I'll pull the speaker out and make a boom popcycle. If those don't work, I'll try the tape.

 

The tape might work

 

+1 on the tape.

Try Scotch Magic tape first as it will leave no residue.

If that does not get it done, the Duct tape should do it.

 

Just blow real hard on the input wires, that should do it.

 

Yep ! Great Idea! ( Genius' At Work ) Is there anything that we can't fix on this Forum?
Somebody buy "jjnoble" a cold beer!

 

You really don't have to screw with it at all. It won't really change the dispersion if the highs all that much. Cosmetics is another story.

 

The tweeter material is very soft so mild suction will bring it back in shape. I've never done it myself but my dealer corrected a collapsed tweeter in the left speaker when I took delivery of my bike last year. They told me they had a little vacuum setup and do it all the time. I don't think they go through the grill and touch the bubble. They cover the whole tweeter but I'm sure the vacuum is pretty low to keep from damaging the bubble.
