Cool way to add a sub with it's own amp.
I'll bet it compliments your new speakers nicely
Thanks Joe, for posting the pics and diagram.

Very good info, Thanks!
Just to confirm, did you use the stock OEM Honda F6B amp for the front speakers? Do you feel it has enough power?
Re-tired, or Re-tard. Depends on your attitude.
according to this artice (OLD!) the amp on a goldwing only puts out 9-11 watts per channel at 4ohms a .5% thd.
New amp & new speakers = easy improvement if that is still the case..
That was for the older GL1800 audio system. The one we have in our F6B is substantially better, but still not what you can buy with a fairly modest expenditure. I am adding an amp to my bike. I have dug into the factory harness and pulled the pre out signals from the OEM Audio Unit/Head unit . The difference is substantial. I measured the difference in another thread.
yes i used the oem amp just used the speaker leads for input
the sub came with a trick little cable to convert it to rca
i remembered there was a thread with the amp location and wiring
buy frankly thats not a me project
my goal was simple,add a sub simpley and it does that
the 651s are far superior to stock
it is smallis and i dont loose my whole bag and after I
adjust the cross over to say 70 xhz it helps clean up mid and the sub adds a lillte bump
and i think i had a good garage day,and spent less tham 200 bucks
Looking forward to it too. Thanks for the pics. Waiting on the sub to arrive. http://http://www.jlaudio.com/cp106l...-systems-93300

I just ordered it yesterday. I was trying to decide which way I wanted to go with the sub. Ultimately figured I wanted to try the JL micro sub. I already have the amplifier mounted and powering the new Polk MM component speakers on the front channels and will bridge the rear channels for the sub. As soon as I get it and am satisfied, I will post pics.
The first link didn't work for me. I think this was the linK? http://www.jlaudio.com/cp106lg-w3v3-...-systems-93300
For the three pictures, what is the second picture I am looking at? Nice Sub, where are you mounting it? I might think twice about getting one. I was originally thinking a pair of 6x9 forward facing so i don't take much room from the sattlebags. Who knows?
so excited to have an upgrade pending for the sound.. even with my baggershield, it was just lacking and so heavy at 2KHz.
cheers!
