Motorcycle Gear

Our motorcycle gear is for riders building or upgrading audio and adding motorcycle-specific accessories. Choose speakers, subwoofers, wiring, mounting parts and lighting around the bike’s space, electrical system and riding conditions. A strong plan starts with the motorcycle’s model, year and factory audio package.

Fit Speakers and Subwoofers to Motorcycle Space

Motorcycle audio has little room for deep speakers or large enclosures, and exposed parts face water, vibration and wind. Measure the opening, mounting depth and space behind each panel. The Saddle Tramp BC-HD69-14U 6x9 saddlebag lids provide speaker mounting for Harley-Davidson applications. For low-frequency output in a shallow space, the DS18 PSW8-4D shallow-mount subwoofer is a water-resistant 8-inch model. Match speaker impedance and RMS power to the amplifier, then set crossovers to keep each driver in its working range.

Plan Amplifier Wiring and Factory Integration

Motorcycle batteries and charging systems have less reserve than many car systems. Size power wire and fusing for the amplifier, keep grounds short and solid, and leave room for safe wire routing. A dedicated harness can simplify factory-radio integration. The Saddle Tramp BC-9715 DSP and add-an-amp harness is designed for Harley-Davidson integration, while the Saddle Tramp ST-AK8 8-gauge wiring kit supplies basic amplifier wiring components.

• Factory audio: Identify the radio and factory package before selecting an interface.
• Amplifier location: Allow clearance, ventilation and protection from water.
• Electrical load: Add amplifier draw to the bike’s existing accessories and charging demand.
• Controls: Retain handlebar functions with a compatible control interface.

Mounting, Controls and Motorcycle Lighting

Mounting plates, fairings and adapter parts can make the difference between a secure installation and a noisy one. Keep wiring clear of moving parts, hot surfaces and sharp edges. Seal connections against moisture and secure them against vibration. For lighting, match housing size and adapter style to the existing opening, then route wires away from steering and suspension movement.

Pair your build with our motorcycle speakers, motorcycle wiring kits and motorcycle lighting to plan audio, installation and visibility together.
