The Ultimate Harley Bagger Stereo Upgrade - Review and Install #1
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 січ 2025
- Upgrading the outdated stock stereo on 2013 and older Street Glides to the Double Din SONY is a no brainer with all of its modern technology, especially Apple Car Play and Android Auto. And the high gloss Metra Inner Fairing is a thing of beauty. The 6.5" Rockford Fosgate Speakers offer crisp sound but don't expect a ton of bass out of these. The 6 x 9 RF Bag Speaker Kit and RF AMP will balance out the system and bring out the bass.
FatHeadCycles.com saved the day with their wide selection of stereo equipment. They supplied the:
SONY XAV-AX7000 with Metra 95-HDIF Inner Fairing Bundle - $1,028

Nothing freshens up an older ride than a new double din head unit and speakers.
Good to have you back! Ride safe and be well, my dude.
2011 Ultra Limited and I had none of the fitment issues you had, just installed mine two days ago. I have yet to put the front of the fairing back on, waiting for the lower dash to come back from paint before I tighten everything up and close it up. I test fit the outer on the bench and everything is aligned, so I do not anticipate issues there either.
The different things I did:
1. removed the tank. Lower dash panel comes right off and will go right back in too. I also ran an RCA Video back under the seat. I might run a camera...don't know, but I have an option to do something with it. Just taking the four bolts and fuel line off and sliding the tank back a couple inches allows the dash panel to come right out.
2. I drilled a 1" hole on the lower right (opposite lighter) and put two USB ports into the fairing. It's really clean.
3. I removed the fairing mounts along with the inner. I cleaned them up and reinstalled them on the bench
4. I was able to keel the horizontal inner supports. I re-bolted them to the upright mounts and then to connect to the 6/5" speakers, I used bailing wire under the nut/washer to snug them to the speaker and make a solid mount.
5. Installed antenna inside the fairing.
6. Installed Firmware update immediately. Firmware 1.12 allows custom wallpaper.
USB port I installed: www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N66N1JK/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o07_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Amazing video Scott! The difference of the aftermarket stereo is insane!
Bought the same kit from fathead a few months ago. Ran into the exact same problems as you did. Was a bit of a pain. But 100% worth it in the end. Totally updates the feel of the bike. Started following you because of the RSV4. I had one too, but now have a street glide. Loving every minute of it. Keep up the good work!!!
What kind of coin did you drop in this setup?
@@cavadust1 for the inner fairing swap with the Sony 7000. No speakers or amp it was right at $1000
Your kids band has kind of a Pantera sound to them. I was digging them, I'm going to check them out
Every time I see the inside of the front fairings on Harley touring bikes it always amazes me how the company can get all that to fit in such a limited space.
If I owned an old dash, definitely would go for this!
The link in the description does not work for me. It's not even close to anything for a harley that shows up.
Does the volume control only supposed to work to higher the volume or should it work to higher and lower volume because on mine it only works to higher the volume
mine adjusted up and down on the volume. just going up makes no sense for when you slow down and volume is still high. sounds like a glitch
FatHeads is defunct. Any other place you recommend to get this type of stereo gear?
What happened to fathead cycles ? They closed the website and can't get in touch with them. Wanted a plug and play bundle for my 19 Electra glide standard.
Did you ever find another reseller who would be good to buy from?
@Augcliffe volunteer audio. Check out his UA-cam channel. Great experience and way better radio with the sound stream reserve. Kit he sells is awsome. All my buddies say it's better than the harley radio.
Good video. Looks like a tedious job for a weekend. But def worth it
Dude!....killing me with the down stairs buizz... lmao...good shit
13 RG front the ground up thanks for the videos
Rockford speakers are awesome but $400 a set is nuts. I put the 6.5 in my fairing but for my lids I’m looking. There has got to be something just as good for a lot less
Repping for your kid. Love it!
Great! I can do in my 2003 Electra Glide?
Check with fat head cycles
Will this radio for a 92 Electra 3? Does it have its own navigation and am dm. I don't want to have to bluetooth from my phone for every thing
Hallo there!! I've an electra glide 2010 CVO limited edition and I am looking to make an upgrade with an android system, with new inner. Can you help me to find one complete solution?
Did the ferrying come with the speakers in stereo or did you have to order that separate and where did you get it What was the total cost on everything
DO SPEAKERS COME WITH THE BUNDLE
I have the 17 street glide special,will I be able to answer the phone?
Is there another alternative for a front fairing upgrade? I have a 2007 Electra glide and want to upgrade to newer style.
I’m actually looking for an upgrade for my 2013 to a better style. Slim pickins
Bonjour, ou commander l'ensemble SVP?
Fathead would be good but they're sold out of everything, do you know of another place for the inner fairing upgrade?
Anyone else sell this setup? Fathead's site doesn't come up.
Can you send me the link to breathing apparatus on your helmet. I have been looking for a week and can't find any.
Your a mad man!!...getter done son!BRAAAAP
Your sons band sound sick dude hahah 🤘🤘
Is this head unit watertight?
Do they make a similar package for 2015 road glide ?

SCOSCHE HD14UDDBN with a Sony 7000, correct wire is cut for Sony. I got up volume no down volume, got source but nothing else. It was working now it’s not. Just the few things working described above . Anything I can do without taking the fairing off?
Is that deck waterproof
It says "weatherproof" whatever that means. It has a 3 year warranty so I just ordered one.
Anyone know where to get the weather cover?
309 audio
Nice Hat!...I'm a fan!
There is a lot more open spaces in the US to ride and have music blasting out of motorcycle speakers and get noticed by onlookers and maybe scare off big critters. Just doesn’t seem to work in the EU or U.K.
Good video...but some of use aren't fair weather riders and the SONY XAV-AX7000 is NOT waterproof.
Very well done video, thank you

What a great video man good job , do you have the link for your cell phone mount?
Sure do. Also added it to the video description: bit.ly/3beSxHI
Got mine at cycle gear. It’s great.
I like basic road king. Stereo’s date a bike. Look at old Harleys with their cassette decks! With ear pods, smartphone, rider comma, why Wouk you want a huge boom box that wind noise drowns out the highs and lows of stero systems. I did enjoy you install. With noise laws coming into play nowadays, why! Harley offers all this extra expensive stuff on a depreciating asset. Why not the best from the factory. Why doesn’t the stage 4 come from a be factory?
Gorilla tape? I superglued paper towels. It works just as good.
dso is dynamic sound organizer.... basically it creates a " centralized " sound... the difference in listening to a song on your radio v the same song but you are standing in the middle of it at a live show. at least thats the theory, i dont notice a real difference.
You should put a link to your son's band 🤘
yeah they sounded pretty good. Kind of Pantera'ish
You doing ok my dude? Health is good brother?
Health is Great. Thank you. MP
Just installed this unit on my pop's bike. It does not have a GPS, navigation and most other functions must come from your phone. Break your phone and your left with Glorified FM radio. Also it is touch screen but has a row of buttons across the bottom. While trying to set it up I would have to use these hard to read buttons because no one screen buttons would bring me out of the page I was on. Not water proof as you can see from other videos and much less functionality than many other 100-250$ units
Sounds goooooood
Just a heads up. Fat Head Cycle is out of business and link goes somewhere else!
Funny I just figured that out last night
Nice upgrade but those speakers don't sound as well as I'd expect.
People do not like boom boxes anymore. Just like loud pipes
It still does not sound like a home system and never will. I prefer ear pods/communication systems.
Pushing the Manscape WTF?!?!?! When did everything become an advertisement?
Gotta keep my dogs fed. Lol
