I saw one on display at the Honda dealer here in Houston . they didn't have it hooked up so I couldn't listen to it. just check with your dealer and see if they have them. I just use my mp3 player with a good pair of ear phones.

I just bought a San Disk mp3 player with 2GB memory storage. I am loading several CD's on it now. It also has FM radio. It comes with all of the accesories that I need, including computer connection and ear pieces. I plan to use it rather than an expensive audio system. Plays for 20 hours on a charge of the lithium batteries. Nice display on the thing and it will fit easily into my jacket of shirt pocket. Even has a neck lanyard with it. I got the thing today at Best Buy, on sale for 69 dollars plus tax. They had a 1GB player also for even less. I have listened to it and it sounds great.:cheers:

You might want to check your local laws on wearing things in your ears. It can cause you to not hear emergency vehicles and that's why they don't allow them where I live. Good idea though, as I checked with the local law down the road from me before trying that same thing. I've seen the speaker kits for around $400 on some of the vendors sights and thru Honda direct.

I saw this link somewhere.I thought these were pretty neat.

The 2wheeltunes are only 2 inch speakers and are almost impossible to hear at cruisin' speeds.

J&M has a set with 4 1/2' speakers and sounds OK.

Both of these systems require you to plug in your own music (CD, MP3, etc.) and have a bult in amp. They work best with windshields as without the wind noise will drown out the music.

I am working on a set but it wont be out until next summer.

I rode with a group of "Red Knights" and this one rider had the 2 Wheel Tunes on her V-Rod. Even at 55mph, they sounded great. I rode one back from her. Over her pipes, damn Harleys, I could hear her tunes. When I can afford it, I'll get a set of 2 wheel tunes form my much quieter, 1300R.

I have these on my VTX and they sound great, are waterproof, and far less expensive than the set up from Honda or 2 Wheel Tunes. I have run with these on the bike for two years, the amp fits under the seat, the speakers are mounted to the windshield with a couple of aluminum plates a friend cut for me, the wires are well hidden under the tank. Going down the road I turn my Ipod up about half way and it sounds great!

I was looking at a pair from this company called Rumble Road " Premium" on Ebay the amplifier is located in the speakers and they are waterproof. The dealer also carries the J&M Amplified speakers but they run over $500.00! That is the next upgrade for me. I spend most of my time riding to friends to ride so I guess I am going to treat myself. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/CHROME-RUMBLE-ROAD-AMPLIFIED-STEREO-MOTORCYCLE-SPEAKERS_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1713Q2em153Q2e l1262QQ_trksidZp1713Q2em153Q2el1262QQcategoryZ3557 1QQihZ024QQitemZ370079019349
