This tutorial video will work for 2014 & newer Harley-Davidson touring models with either a batwing or shark nose style fairings & equipped with the Harley-Davidson Boom!™ Box Infotainment System. This video is for installing the Soundz Bagger Audio front amp & speakers. This video covers every aspect of a front speaker & amp installation in great detail.

Note: With the Soundz Bagger front amp & speakers install you will need to “flash” or “re-program” your Boom!™ Box Infotainment System prior to or after install. Flashing the Boom Box will allow it to recognize the new amp and speaker setup along with putting out the proper levels. Understand, Harley dealerships will no longer flash the Boom Box for you unless you purchase their Harley branded Boom Audio Stage speaker and amp kits. No worries though, because in our tutorial video we show you how to easily flash your Boom Box system using the Techno Research Scan Tool that you purchase with your Soundz Bagger Audio Kit.

Save your money and do this project yourself right in your shop or garage right on the kickstand. No fancy motorcycle lifts, jacks or tools needed.

The video is very thorough and we show you different options for routing and managing wires. We explain what each component actually does and armed with this knowledge the project is a breeze.

As usual, the paper instructions provided by Soundz Bagger Audio with the amp and speaker kit will confuse and frustrate you. That is where this video comes in, by breaking it down and showing you exactly how to do each step and why. You will watch in high definition and at the best possible angles. You will listen to actual bikers explain and show things in a way that is easy to understand. It is as if you are right there with us and can reach out and turn a wrench or plug in a wiring harness! This is a video by bikers for bikers. You simply won't find a better Soundz Bagger Audio amp and speaker kit for Harley install tutorial video out there.

Soundz Bagger Audio kit components we used in this video:

Soundz Iron 61 Front Fairing Speakers
Soundz SM4.100 4 channel amplifier
All wiring harnesses and hardware included in kit
Techno Research Scan Tool (for flashing the Boom Box)

We suggest mounting your cell phone or music playing device to your handlebars or control cluster using a Biker Gripper. You will certainly want your music player mounted so you can get the most out of your new Soundz Bagger system.

LAB-252-Harley-Davidson’s Efforts to Draw a Younger Generation-Guest Michael Rubinson

It's well known that Harley has been struggling for some time and sales have been declining steadily year to year. There’s just not a big demand for the bigger expensive touring bikes that make up the core of its model line. The company’s loyal base of older customers, who drove a Harley revival during the 1980s and 1990s, is aging and purchasing fewer new motorcycles.

Patron member Michael Rubinson of Law Abiding Biker Media listened to podcast episode #241 titled, “Harley-Davidson End Times! CEO Levatich Quits?“. We talked in that episode about Harley trying to draw a new younger generation of riders and where they are failing.

Soundz Bagger Audio System-Harley Install Day

October 24, 2020 By Ryan Urlacher Leave a Comment

We filmed the install of a Sound Baggerz Audio amplifier and front fairing speakers in a 2014 Harley-Davidson Street Glide Special. We will also be flashing the Boom Box system with a Techno Research Scan Tool afterward as required. We will be testing this entire system and the quality and let you know. We have no affiliation with Soundz Bagger Audio. We simply bought their products for install and real-world biker review.

We also had a Road Glide on hand and in our tutorial video, we will show you the slight differences with the install process. Like all our videos, this tutorial will be very detailed and you can be assured you'll be able to install this audio system in your Harley right in your very own shop or garage.

You can keep checking back here to see when this install video is released. We also have other Harley audio system install videos such as the Harley Boom Box Stage 1 & 2 kit, Rockford Fosgate Power Harley-Davidson kit, J&M Rokker XX Extreme kit, Hogtunes kit, and Cycle Sounds kit.

I spent the afternoon at the Law Abiding Biker Store facility in Richland, WA, which is about 1 hr east of the Law Abiding Biker Media Studio and Shop near Yakima, WA. As we expand our store, I figured it was time for a newer cutting edge security system and alarm.

I had some fun while I was there of course messing with Big Daddy and Goat, who run the store.

I wanted to quickly share what's going on in our online store and I announced some cool new products we're carrying for the biker community.

I want to sincerely thank each and every one of you that shops in the Law Abiding Biker Store. We simply could not continue to grow without your support.

RickRak GoPro Fork Mount For Harley Davidson 2014 to Present

October 17, 2020 By Ryan Urlacher Leave a Comment

Rickrak GoPro Fork Mount for Harley

This Rickrak GoPro Fork Mount System offers a truly unique perspective. This GoPro mount for Harley enables your action camera to be securely mounted to either the left or right side of your front fork. This GoPro mount for Harley kit includes a GoPro and Garmin mount. This mount Fits all ’14 and up Harley's except V-Rods. To install, simply remove a front fork bolt to the fender, and replace it with the included mounting system which includes all the necessary parts.

Note: Check out my Best 5 GoPro Action Camera Mounts for Harley-Davidson Video & article here!

Understand, there are a ton of variables when using GoPro mounts and how well the footage comes out is dependent on many things. Different motorcycle models, years, motors, mount location, vibration, camera models, camera settings, and angles are just a few of the variables to consider. Testing ahead of time is what you should do if you if the footage you are planning on getting is important.

I will say that whether you're producing professional videos like me or you're just a hobbyist capturing motorcycle trip footage to later share with family and friends, I guarantee there is a GoPro action camera mount for you and your Harley. Check our online store to find what you need!

Note: I will strongly suggest that you don't get the cheaply made GoPro brand tube/bar mounts. They are cheaply built, break often, and are severely overpriced. Trust me, I tried to use them many years ago and ended up throwing away a large box or cheap GoPro parts. They are frustrating and vibrate badly when mounted to a motorcycle. GoPro makes okay cameras, but many of their mounts are lacking.

I strongly suggest you check out Law Abiding Biker Podcast Episode #177 where we discuss in detail each of the mounts I am discussing in this article.

LAB-251-Two New Leaked Harley Models & Other Future Model News!

Harley has been trying to reach a broader customer base as it’s certainly important to their future existence. So, back in July 2018, Harley announced its “More Roads to Harley” strategy. If you haven’t already, you should really get up to speed and watch my video on CEO Matthew Levatich quitting and the current state of the Motor Company.

Harley Pan America Adventure

Harley is trying to be innovative with the late 2019 announcement of the Pan America Adventure Bike and the Bronx Streetfighter. These two bikes are scheduled to go into production later this year. I’m personally most excited to see the Pan America but I fear as Harley’s first adventure bike it will be way overpriced for most riders like their first electric motorcycle, the Livewire.

Harley Bronx Streetfighter

The images of these two new leaked models first appeared in a document released to Harley-Davidson investors in late September 2019 but since then Harley has filed design patents with the European Union Intellectual Property Office.

Both the Pan America and Bronx will have the Revolution Max engine and it seems that the same engine will be carried over to the two newest models we talk about in this podcast episode.

First Leaked Harley is a Flat Tracker:

This new model seems to be loosely modeled off the XG750R Flat Tracker and it can be seen in the shape of the tank, the seat, and the two stacked exhaust pipes on the right side.

It appears the script on the air cleaner housing reads “975″, indicating it’s the same version of the engine used in the Bronx Streetfighter. That means a claimed 115 hp and 70 pound-feet.

The flat tracker's chassis appears similar to the Bronx, with the same forks and Brembo front brakes but the tubular, triangulated swingarm is different. One thing that really stands out on this bike for me is the triangulated tubing coming off the left side to situate the signals, brake light, and license plate. And that square style headlight looks cool.

Second Leaked Harley is a Cafe Racer:

Like the flat tracker, the cafe racer seems to be based on the 975cc Revolution Max engine from the Bronx. It's worth noting that this cafe racer model is likely to appear later this year as a 2021 model.

The chassis is similar to the Bronx and the flat tracker and it has the same front suspension and brakes. But, it looks like it gets its own simple straight design swingarm. A more notable item on this bike is the rear twin shocks rather than the more traditional rising-rate monoshock.

The cafe racer is a new arena for Harley-Davidson to enter. Although the bike is definitely a cafe racer, it sill has a very Harley flare to it.

Some of the other notable items on this leaked Harley is the small minimal nose cowl that looks like the one on my Dyna Low Rider. The gas tank shape has a hint of Sportster and the seat looks like that on the XR1200.
