uh.. lets hope thats 100w RMS per channel
Being a sound engineer by trait, I often snicker when people tell me their car stereos have a 150w or something amp in it.. and you look at it closely and its 150w PPM total output over 4 channels
Basically, it's 150w divided by 4.. and then that wattage measurement in PPM is what it can produce for one second before the cone starts getting damaged and reaches full excurtion and then some.
RMS all the way baby.

Next you'll be wanting a roof over your head, maybe some doors to keep the wind out and then a few extra tyres to keep that annoying habit bikes have of falling over at times.
lol.

My 50W RMS per channel gives great sound from the 4" speakers just need some rear mounted ones to balance the sound and to be heard from two blocks away instead of the usual one block. The stereo is controlled by a Sony rotary commander

Doesn't look as bad as I thought it would but seriously why not just get an MP3 player and headphones?
And Zeroindex I think they are still too busy laughing at YOUR bike.
my helmet is hard to get on with headphone with the neck roll built into the helmet, have flat helmet speakers coming for it ,these plug into the amp which will give high quality music , better than a ipod , speakers are on the bike for when i'm ridding with my little girl so see can hear some music and when i.m playing around on some old back roads.
oh, zeroindex if we are going to talk about gay , dude 400cc is gay when you grow up and get over 1000cc then we can talk about the facts of life,take the training wheels off your bike.

I'll get rid of the 400cc as soon as I get a full licence, and I'll take the training wheels off my bike as soon as people stop doing dumb shit to cruisers... if it wasn't for the training wheels, I'd fall over from laughing so much

Listing your occupation as full time unemployed might have something to do with that.

As of Monday, I'm starting training as a security officer... and yes, not everyone can find jobs that they fit comfortably into... And don't worry Mr Boulevard, I'm not leaching all your tax money... I only got on the benefit 2 weeks ago, and have already found myself something...

Not sure about the stereo and speaker thing on my bike i like to get away from everything when i ride
I would consider a decent MP3 player that you can hear at reasonable speeds

I like music when I ride. I find that when I get to anything requiring concentration I don't even notice the music but on the long long boring straights round Christchurch music is a godsend. I use a mp3 player and bud earphones. It also helps to cut wind noise. I figure I'd have earplugs in my lugs anyway so why not get em to play music.
Out of interest, what happens to those speakers when it rains? I only ride, so got to have all weather components. Do you clip em off, cover em up or are they waterproof?
they are 100% waterproof they use this system on personal watercarfts
