    I just emailed Polk to find out.

    Think I'm gonna open er up today and get started. Jimmy, is it hard to find the cable from the head unit to the amplifier to intercept it? Any suggestions for the easiest way?

    I got mine in the wiring from the amplifier. The OEM amp has a bundle of wires coming from it to a plug that plugs into the factory harness. I unplugged the amp and then cut those wire bundles approx. at the half way point and then identifies which wires were what from the Honda shop manual wiring diagram. The half of that wiring bundle goes to the plug. The other half is still connected to the amp that is now removed. So you identify the wires for the pre out signals and solder in RCA connectors . Then plug it back into the factory harness and voila.I also used the amp power feed in that harness to turn on my new amp at the trigger point. The new amp has separate power feeds from the battery.

    I gotta say, the idea of a subwoofer on a motorcycle trips me out! I hope to hear one of these setups for myself. I just ordered a 15 F6B in blue and was looking at inexpensive mods and couldn't help but notice this speaker thread. I'll wait and see how it sounds with my full face helmet on and then decide. Thanks for all the great info here!

    I'm almost willing to bet my son has a high school band competition that weekend. I'll check into it though. I'm in Apex NC, Franklin looks like a sweet mountain area.
