Preacher, to be honest, I think you'd be lucky to hear anything with a CD player at full volume with installed speakers and the bike at idle - especially if you've installed any type of pipes. At speed, FUHGEDABOWDIT. An MP3 player with earbud/clip-on speakers at cruisin' speeds in a full-face helmet sounds pretty good, and is about as good a sound as you'll get. There was a post around where I attempted to disassemble and reassemble a set of walkman type speakers into a full face helmet. They sounded really good, but didn't last very long. Let us know what you come up with.

 

I installed a great speaker that plays the best music to my ears. A Muzzys exhaust system, and I play it loud.[8D]

 

I ride with my iPod and a set of ear buds. I can carry nearly my entire CD collection with me anywhere I go and don't have to mess with changing or storing cds, everything is at my fingertips.

 

I do the same as Keith. I have a 20 gig jukebox player with a FM tuner and ear buds. I can ride for hours and hours and listen to my tunes. according to manual I can record 5000 to 8000 songs. It has rechargable batteries that last about 10 hours.

 

man that sounds nice I gots to get one !

 

Ok no raido, you guys dont need to be listening to a radio while driving a warrior, i can just see is now, 1warrior jamming out while driving down I10 LOL ;o) DONT GET ANY IDEAS

 

I can't even hear my bub's when I'm on the road.

 

anybody can install a cd player if you want to different install a reel to reel I hear the chicks dig these!

 

Hey Jim, I've got one of those[/emoticons/emotion-2.gif] Not on the bike of course. I've got an mp3 player with the earbuds and they work like a charm.

 

MP3/CD player w/ earbuds works well for me; I use the iRiver 350, and can get about 215 songs per cd, and I swap it from bike to bike.

I user the the HJC Chatterbox GMRS-X1. It has noise cancelling speakers that mount in your helmet. This model has inputs for any type of Walkman device (I use Compaq iPAQ .mp3 player). Also has an input for cell phone (which I do not use). Very nice and can communicate with any radio/walkie talkie device within 5 miles.

 

Why not just sing?

 

I used to have a Sony Uproar MP3 phone. I could upload 64mb of tunes to it and listen with a set of ear buds. Unfortunately, the buds always kept falling out in my helmet, so it was usually more effort than it was worth. Not to mention, illegal in Ohio.

 

I found a place with 45w powered Blaupunkt speakers that mount to the handlebars. The enclosures are brushed aluminum - and look pretty good. I think the cost is around $230. You just have to plug a source into them (like a cd player or mp3 player). But as Jimboman noted - I doubt I'd be able to hear much at cruising speeds with my Bigshots. I did kick the idea around though. But when I realized that I can't hear my own horn at cruising speeds - I figured the speakers would be a waste.
