Review the 3 options below, and pick the option best suited for your bike to
prepare the amp to be installed in place.
1)
If you have an 06+ Ultra with the CB
as shown in Diagram 1.1, the
foot will be installed using supplied screws to the 2 holes on the bottom of the
“brake side” of the amplifier. The foot has an angle cut in it so it will clear the
outer fairing going back on. Make sure the angled portion of the foot sits
adjacent to the angled part of the amp. Place one side of the supplied “hook
and loop” adhesive on the CB Module, trimming it to fit if you like, and the
other side of the “hook and loop” adhesive on the underside of the amplifier.
Please note that most adhesives work best at room temperature or higher and
on clean surfaces. Put the amp in place. You may have to lift up on the large
wire harness that runs across the speedo/tach to get the amp in. There is an
“overhang” built into the foot. The amp is far enough back when the overhang
meets the back of the radio.
2)
If you have an 06+ with the CB AND XM Module, or a 98-05
Ultra,
place one side of the supplied “hook and loop” across the CB
Module/XM Module or across the top of the 98-05 radio, and the other side
of the “hook and loop” adhesive on the underside of the amplifier. Please note
that most adhesives work best at room temperature or higher and on clean
surfaces. Put the amp in place so the back of the amp is as close to the back of
the speedo/tach as possible, or the outer fairing will not go back on.
3)
If you have an 06+ with no CB (or XM) module
you will notice a
“bump” that runs from the front to the back of the radio in the center. Take one
side of the hook and loop adhesive, cut it in half , and place each half on either
side of the bump. Place the other side of the “hook and loop” adhesive on
the underside of the amp. Please note that most adhesives work best at room
temperature or higher and on clean surfaces. Put the amp in place so the back
of the amp is as close to the back of the speedo/tach as possible, or the outer
fairing will not go back on.

AMP PREPARATION
WIRING THE AMPLIFIER
6
Step #1: With amplifier in place, take the yellow/black wires on the input
connector of the amplifier, and plug them into the front factory speaker
wires on the clutch side of the bike. They will only go in one way. Take
the brown/black wires on the “front out” connector and plug them into
the front clutch side speaker. They will only go in one way.
Step #2: Take the green/black wires on the input connector and plug them into
the front factory speaker wires on the brake side of the bike. Take the
blue/black on the front out plug, and plug them into the brake side front
speaker. Again, these will only go on one way.
The orange wire is the “remote turn on lead” and tells the amp to turn on
whenever it sees +12v (.5 amp min.). Unplug the center wire (+) on the cigarette
lighter. Plug the orange lead from the amplifier directly onto the lighter using the
female connector. Plug the factory lighter wire to the male “take off” connector
which is part of the amps orange turn on lead.
ROUTING THE MAIN WIRE HARNESS
Step #1: The power/ground harness and rear harness will pass together under
the inner fairing where the main wire harness passes through on the
brake side of the bike. Loosen the tanks “chrome console” and run wires
up and over the gas tank, but under the tanks chrome console. There is
a provision on the front of the tank console for wires to pass.

When correctly installed, the power and ground wires are the right length to
connect to the battery, and the remaining 8 pin harness is the right length to be
zip-tied to the brake side fender strut. Be sure to run the 8 pin harness UNDER the
air line for the brake side rear shock.
