CBR250 Audio System
41 - 60 of 67 Posts
im familiar with hall and oats,though i dont listen to them,most harleys around here playing music listen to classical,jazz,romantic oldie type songs and i say they sound pretty good,i dont turn it on during highway riding though i would be able to hear it,when i take backroads to other cities ill play it,but mostly in the city..and people dont seem to get annoyed...
everytime i pass by kids they start dancing,a girl has blown me a kiss,every one looks..people LOVE music...not that im playing it for them..i tried headphones i hate putting on all kinds of gear+headphones and shades if its sunny.and i dont want the music right in my ear..and its even worse on quickstops here n there..you gotta ungear,re-gear. etc
i have seen many sportbikes since i started riding,that have some type of audio system.im not going to buy a harley or goldwing to be accepted in the bike audio category.
i never trolled in your thread Aufit,but i see you trolling a lot.where i live,it is you that would get the beat down,just saying.
there is some drama around here about riding 250s,but mostly with poser squids and people who dont even ride.
the only immature thing about this thread,is the posters who have nothing better to do but try and be clever with their unhelpful negative comments.ive let this thread die everyone keeps reviving it
still a good laugh though lmao.this is the best thread so far,dumbest...no

Aw man the guy did say "JOKING"!
OF COURSE there is technical beauty in a fully concealed high-quality sound system on a small bike. But a 250 sliding up between lanes to the front of an intersection - "o o here she comes, watch out boys she'll chew you up..." the visual makes me laugh to tears, sorry.

How did you know that was the song playing? I swear that was it! And why is this thread so addicting. Kind of like that song, lol. I guess I am guilty of reading this forum more for entertainment puposes than anything else. It can be interesting at times. I like the technical stuff quite a bit but I have 2300mi. on my bike and even though I would like a louder exhaust maybe, I will probably keep my bike pretty much stock. I can't imagine I would do anything to make it much more fun or better since I don't really push it all that hard compared to what the hard core racer might. Anyway, I find the thread interesting and humorous. Both good things! And I am probably a little too self-consious to be riding around putting my tunes out there while riding but if you got the balls to be conspicous more power to you. Its not like you are invading peoples space with bone crushing sub woofers or anything.

hahahahahahha fucking classic Top,i like it hahaha.
and yeah he said joking but hes the first one to troll the thread in the first place lol..
its not like id play the song u quoted either way,some girl asked me if i was down to put her on the back and bump barbie girl
most people ask me if the bike is a 600 for some reason,even before i got a full exhaust system put on.

i used to,had 2 18inch competition subs in a ported boxed tuned to 34hz that i built.
only had 3000rms going to each but i sold the subs and one amp, subs were only made for 1500rms each though. the right box allows you to throw more power to them.

Not bad Top. Maybe I will get a system after all and make it my personal mission to enlighten some people around here with some Bob Marley, King Tubby, or Lee Scratch Perry. Of course, in some areas around here that kind of music might call fer a beatn. At least they could try....lol.

34hz is getting down to the edge of audible range. (20hz is the lowest that can be heard) I bet people could feel you coming before they heard you.
I used to install systems back in the day. Amazing what can be accomplished with even just 1 10" sub and a mono channel.

I used to run a single audiobahn 10 with a an alpine 500watt mono wired down to 2 ohm and man that thing shook like nobody's business. For the short period of time I was wiring it up and testing at my then apartment parking lot, the neighbors came out to see and feel what was going on. Others just slammed doors and said things I could not hear.
ya my 10's are rated to 750 watt RMS, but im pretty happy with how they sound right now. every once in a while though i wish i could turn them up louder than they are. definitly have reached the limits of my 300 watt amp a few times.
to bring the topic back to the OP a little,
we've been talking about speakers in the bike itself, how well have those worked for you at highway speeds?
i would imagine that having a bluetooth setup in your helmet would work alot better over wind noise and such.
im looking at getting small bluetooth speakers just for music while riding, i dont plan on using it for phone calls (i use less than 200 minutes a month), but having the option isnt a bad idea.

im still jamming to top's link lmfao...
yeah,of all the years i had audio systems in my car i always shut it off at the right time,but with this setup the cop came out of a neighborhood onto the mainstreet,i saw him right when he was in line of sight and hit pause,he still pulled me over and said
"i dont usually give citations but that was over the top loud,what are you doing with all this stuff in here man"
i remember bumping on the mainstreen,cutting it off,then going into a neighborhood and can hear alarms going off in the neighborhood,i miss the bass..
1st ticket for noise 250$ fine.told him it was my hobby,and atleast im not out here selling and smoking meth...still got a ticket.
one guy wanted to buy my subs saying it gave him chills from shaking his condo,but never came through with money.
everyone around here seems to enjoy the extreme systems i turn it down when i get close to cars,i dont like to bump near old people,babies n such but they roll their windows down and ask me to turn it up..one asshole cut me off so i followed him at full tilt.
i dont bump at stop lights,signs,or in neighborhoods either.
i dont mind anyone sharing their audio,when i get a 2nd bike i will prolly get a chatterbox,the new slim ones.
with the kind of speakers i have the freeway isnt a problem.
if anyone is having any alt problems in their cars due to their system or w.e they got going on these guys are local to me and make highoutput alts

if you need to replace your batts,get a kinetik,or XS Power..better then adding a cap.

I might be a little late to the thread but OP, I'm pretty sure our bike's run on a 6v electrical system so it'll be rather complicated to run a 12v car amplifier off this. Even the best amps go into protect at 9v.
As far as the car audio talk, right now I'm running 2 12 inch BTL's on a Cactus Sounds K5 (5100 wrms). Let's just say I've had to replace my windshield

Hey freshman, here's a little bit of homework you should do before you squeak...... stop listening to your grandfather; read the Owner's Manual.I might be a little late to the thread but OP, I'm pretty sure our bike's run on a 6v electrical system so it'll be rather complicated to run a 12v car amplifier off this.

Okay? thanks for being a dick. I'm just used to 6V offroad systems.
