Complete Audio Kits
About Complete Audio Kits
A complete audio kit bundles parts that are meant to work together, such as speakers, an amplifier, a radio and the wiring, so you do not have to match components yourself. Riders choose one when they are adding sound to a bike for the first time, replacing an old system in one go, or want a setup made for a specific model.
The kits here come in different forms. Some are amplified speaker kits for Harley-Davidson touring bikes, and others are universal radio systems or a powered Bluetooth gauge-mount radio with a color display. The listings also include tuned systems for Polaris side-by-sides, labeled Stage 3 or Stage 5 and some made for Ride Command, along with a roof and a visor for Polaris and Can-Am models. Read each listing to see what the kit contains and which machine it fits. Pick yours in the Ride Finder at the top of the page.
Brands here include Metrix, MB Quart, HogTunes and Wild Boar Audio. If you want to build your own system, look at Speakers, Amplifiers and Wiring Harnesses, Cables & Connectors. The wider group is Audio, Communication & Navigation.
FAQs on complete audio kits
What is included in a complete motorcycle audio kit?
It varies by kit. Some include speakers and an amplifier, some add a radio, and some supply the harness for a specific model. Read the listing to see which pieces are in the box and what you still need, such as mounting hardware or a matching lid.
Can I add a radio to a motorcycle that did not come with one?
Yes, there are options for it, including universal radio systems and a gauge-mount radio. You still need power, speakers and a mounting spot, and the parts should be suited to outdoor use. Check the listing for what is included.
Is a complete kit easier to install than separate parts?
Often. A kit made for your model usually has the right harness and mounting pieces, so there is less wiring and less guesswork. It still takes time and care, so follow the instructions supplied with it and check that the electrical system suits the load.
Will a kit work with my machine's factory screen?
Only if it is made to. Some Polaris listings name Ride Command, which shows the kit is designed for that system. For any other machine, confirm with the listing that the kit supports your factory display before you order.
