that's annoying as shit too, I will blow by some of you fools on the gap listening to Britney Spears or Justin Beiber, but you will roll into the store blasting Iron Maiden or Metallica. Bunch of douchers, you guys are.

yeah it ain't no joke. LOL. They actually do listen to crap music and then switch it over to something "badass" when they get to where everyone is hanging out. I can't count the number of times I have run into this.

Nice work & the signals look good.

Just an 'IMO' commentary though: I kinda

at stereo systems on bikes (open-air loudspeakers, that is). I mean, if the point is to be able to listen to music while you're riding, don't quality earbuds do a MUCH better job of delivering decent sound-quality while cutting wind/road-noise? I'm sure they (open speakers) sound decent at low-speeds and behind a full fairing, but there still has to be a ton more noise than with isolating earphones. On the other hand, if the purpose is to let everyone else around you hear what you're listening to, well....

I will never wear ear buds and listen to music...but I could get down with a stereo like the Harley has.

Well, in most states including Michigan, wearing earphones while riding a bike is illegal as you are probably going to be unable to hear sirens around you. However, I guess I could have my stereo turned up so loud that I wouldn't be able to hear sirens near me as well. But, at least I am not breaking the law.

And lately I have only been really jammin it loud enough for everyone around me to hear just to spite the neighbors because I think its funny. I fully intend to keep the extra loud jammin exclusively on the highway where I want to drown out the wind noise with some noise of my own.

I thought you could have at least one earbud in all states.

I wouldn't worry about the law on earbuds. It really is nothing.
