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 tank’s “chrome console” and run wires up
and over the gas tank, but under the tank’s chrome console. There is a
provision on the front of the tank console for wires to pass.
NOTE: Although not necessary, the power and rear harnesses can go
under the gas tank if you choose to remove and re-install the tank.
• When correctly installed, the power and ground wires are the right
length to connect to the battery. The supplied rear harness for Ultras is
the right length so that its two ends can sit on the middle of the back
fender just behind the threaded insert for the bolt that holds the back of
your seat in place.
Step #2: Just behind the threaded insert that holds the seat bolt on the back fender,
you will see a large factory wire plug. One side of the plug has wires that
go to each rear speaker pod. Separate this large factory plug. One plug
from the Hogtunes rear harness will plug into each side of the factory
plug just separated. They will only go together one way.
At this point, all audio connections for this system are made. You will
have a left over plug on the amp with four wires (red/black and white/
black) and is what we call the bypass harness. Although this plug is not
used as part of this system, it is there for future expansion of your system
as we release more products for Rushmore platform bikes.
