Shorter drill bits
Now any suggestions on the hole or do I leave it there as a nagging reminder to take my time for my next project...
Also any suggestion on how to fix the hole in my fairing?
If your inner fairing is not painted the fix is easy,make sure the area at the hole is slightly indented,then put a dab of paintable black silicone in the hole and wipe off any excess and let dry.Then take a Q-tip with a bit of flat black paint on it and touch it up.When that drys put a bit of pledge on a cloth and wipe down the fairing.This touch up will work on matt black fairings and solid gloss colors,but not a mettalic or pearl.
Just spoke to a buddy - convinced him to bring in his bike and he has OEM speakers and we are going to do a compare - I had a guy listen to them a few minutes ago and he said it was loud - Maybe 24 years in the Navy working around the flight deck hampered my hearing a bit... Will report back with what I find...

skcm,
sk's work around the flight deck? :bigsmiley20:
Just being on the ship will do it, I retired just over 5 years ago and hearing gets worse and worse! Or maybe i'm just ignoring the wife
In MD (North East) <----yes it is a town may be heading to Gettysburg this saturday depending on the weather!
take care,
If you get a speaker upgrade you should get the AMP .
OK, went out, turned the IPOD down to 3/4 volume, adjusted the Treble and bass to just 50% each and the radio blared with no distortion ... IPO was at 90% before it went distorted... I can live with that. Had my buddy's Classic and we compared the both and mine do sound crisper and clearer than his and louder... so I am good with the final adjustments - thanks guys!!!
As for the hole. I like the idea but the hole isn't concaved it sticks out, so I am going to have to shave it down (CAREFULLY) and push it in a bit. But I think it will work too. I will let you know how that works this weekend... fingers crossed!:newsmile04:
