STEP 5
Install brackets on handlebars where speakers do not obstruct the riders view (such as the
handlebars, engine guards or highway/crash bars). Use allen screw
s
that is included on the
bracket. The clamps themselves will tighten to the bar when the speakers are installed
Once brackets are installed, add the speakers:
A) Remove the nut and lock washer only and feed the speaker wire through the bracket hole and
attach each speaker to the bracket. Put the lock washer and nut back on through the wire and
tighten speaker to
bracket
. (Flat washer and lock washer go on the bottom).
Do not over-tighten!
Adjust the speakers so they are directed at the rider’s head. To adjust, just slightly loosen the nut
on the speaker stem and move the speaker up or down to align. Make sure all screws are
securely fastened and tightened.
Route speaker wires through the bike’s frame to where the amplifier will be installed and
proceed to the next steps in amplifier and power connection.
SECURE THE WIRING AWAY FROM MOVING PARTS, PINCH POINTS, OR EXTREME HEAT. STEEL
HORSE AUDIO WILL NOT PROVIDE WARRANTY COVERAGE ON ANY ELECTRICAL COMPONENT
THAT FAILS DUE TO PINCHED, CRIMPED, BROKEN, ABRADED, MELTED, OR FRAYED WIRES.

STEP 1
STEP 1
AMPLIFIER MOUNTING
Find a place
to
mount the amplifier such as a tool compartment, under the seat, fork bag,
saddlebag, swing arm bag, windshield bag, etc. Most places will be fine, but try to avoid
areas that could cause extreme overheating (such as tight places wrapped in foam or
cotton).
Remember, t
he amp can get
wet, it is
waterproof!
(follow Kenwood instructions)
AMPLIFIER POWER
AND CONTROL
CONNECTION
Connect the
Yellow
power wire from the wire harness to the positive terminal on the battery.
The Black wire is a ground wire and needs to be attached to the negative terminal on the
battery. (or to the vehicle’s chassis where paint has been removed
.
The shorter the wire, the better
)
Take the Blue (w/ white stripe) remote-on wire and run it to to a switched power source (headlight,
taillight, etc). If blue, yellow & black wires are not connected, system will NOT work.
Wait to
plug
harness in to amplifier
until
you complete next
step
s
.
Mount the remote using the supplied strap mount and run the remote control wire from the
handlebar (or wherever you mount the controller) to the amplifier.
