    Here are some bits that have some real heavy bass. However it does not come across. Believe me, the volume is extremely loud and the bass you can feel. But what should I expect from a phone right?

    thatonebiker: Any updates?

    Whoever thought you couldn't ride down the road on a motorcycle and have great bass from your music, needs to take note. I'm so very pleased with the outcome of my efforts. This thing rocks and thumps. Even at 70 mph.

    where is this amp mounted? maybe i missed the post?

    and how did you mount the 5 1/4? I am at that step now. I ordered the 6.5, carved up the tweeters, mounted the x-overs, and realized the subs were a huge no-go. ordered the 5 1/4 and am trying to figure the best way to mount bass to the dash.

    I originally mounted the 5.25" I bought a small square sheet of ABS. I trimmed out the outline of the stock speakers and then cut out the needed area inside that for the 5.25" I got the ABS from a local car audio place for $10. You can order various sizes and thicknesses of ABS from various sources on the web. Just google it. That's what I did anyways.

    It worked well. Since then , I have up sized to the 6.5" One of the 5.25" woofers had developed a slight rattle. I ran then very hard. The place I bought them will warranty them, but I didn't want to wait, so I ordered the 6.5".

    If you go the ABS route, I'd recommend getting a thickness of about or a 1/4" thick. The 5.25" will bottom out as well without a little spacing.

    Did you happen to take any pictures?

    Thanks
