Pics 4 & 5 - This mod worked great for me too. Did it tonight. Thanks harley_504. It was something on my list from the catalog that will not cost me the $50. It was free.


Pic 3 - is a CD holder in my left side bag. It's one of the car visor holders that I cut the elastic straps off of, placed adhesive velcro on it and the insid of the bag, and stuck it on. It's removable if I need to and fits great! Also out of the way.


Pics 1 & 2 -are where I decided to mount myMP3 player(Creative Zen VisionM 30 gig). Used heavy duty velcro from WMT and ran a 6' aux audio cable up through my tank dash, down in front of the tank, zip tied to the main harness, and up in front of the neck to the stereo. Pretty clean and I like how it looks. Easy to use too.

I just bought my bike not too long ago, so I have not done much to it...yet.

I really like this thread. It needs to grow...keep'em comming!

I don't know if this qualifies as a DIY but; take an old 5qt oil container, cut the side out and lay it down to use to drain your fluids...fits under the bike no problem
 
It's simple, but still a good tip. I'd say it qualifies. Antifreez jugs work good for this too. Cut them so the handle and screw top/spout stay intact. Also makes a good parts cleaning bowl so you don't use all your wifes good tupperware out in the garage.
 
The Tweeters come with a crossover for each one, and I simply soldered the crossover lead to the Hog Tunes speaker wires on the speaker spades. I tie wrapped the tweeter crossovers (there about the size half a deck of cards) to one of the big wire harness in the batwingjust to hold them in place. The crossovers are totally covered with epoxy so not to worry about shorting etc.

Easy mod, and great sound.
