If your amplifier’s crossover can’t reach 250 Hz @ 24 dB\/octave (or 300 Hz @ 12 dB\/octave), you’ll need a DSP or a passive high-pass filter at the correct frequency. Correct crossover, gain and limiter settings matter here — if you’re unsure, contact us before ordering and we’ll check it against your setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat else you’ll need\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAn amplifier with DSP crossover control\u003c\/strong\u003e — the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/cicada-audio-flx700-4pro-ultra-compact-4-channel-dsp-amplifier\"\u003eFLX700.4PRO\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/cicada-audio-flx1400-4pro-4-channel-dsp-pro-amplifier\"\u003eFLX1400.4PRO\u003c\/a\u003e, or a \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/dsp412pro-4-input-x-12-output-dsp-processor-w-diald-software\"\u003eDSP412PRO\u003c\/a\u003e ahead of your existing amplifier.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRear speaker wiring\u003c\/strong\u003e — the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/saddletramp-bc-9720-rear-speaker-backbone-harness-harley-touring\"\u003eSaddleTramp BC-9720 rear speaker backbone harness\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOptional, for a two-way rear stage\u003c\/strong\u003e — the \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/cicada-chd69tb-6x9-tweeter-bridge-pair\"\u003eCHD69TB\u003c\/a\u003e tweeter bridge with \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/cicada-audio-rr1t-titanium-short-horn-tweeters\"\u003eRR1T\u003c\/a\u003e or \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.motorcycleaudio.com.au\/products\/cicada-audio-rr075t-titanium-shallow-horn-tweeters\"\u003eRR075T\u003c\/a\u003e tweeters.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eBike\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e2014–2023 H-D® Touring models with standard solid saddlebag lids — Street Glide®, Road Glide®, Ultra Limited and Electra Glide®\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePosition\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSaddlebag lids — cut-in (permanent modification to the lid)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNot compatible\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSaddlebags with electric locks; 2024+ H-D® saddlebag lids\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpeaker cutout \/ depth\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e145 × 216 mm (5.7″ × 8.5″) \/ 99 mm (3.9″)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCutting a factory lid is permanent.
