 Ahhhh, I just love the sound of my Roadie engine while cruisin'
This is a sound I have not heard for a couple months now, due to ice and snow  )
I usually don't listen to radio when cruisin' on my bike (it takes the "riding" out of riding... Radios are for Cagers!  )
One other good reason for no radio is the fact that a guy should keep his ears peeled for sounds indicating that some yuppie cager is trying to run me over or is about to ass-end me or something  )

I have used a Cycle Sound for about 26 years. I got a car am fm cd player in it mounted on the handlebars of my Roadstar. Had it on my 81 xs1100, 99 R*, 04 R* and now on my 06 R*.
It'll skip on a big enough bump and sometimes if you race the bike the vibes get to it but other than that it works great. At 70-80 mph it gets a little harder to hear unless you know the song your listening to, truly wouldn't be without it on almost any ride long or short. If it was too much a pain would have thrown it out years ago.
Check ebay and if you get stuck I have 3 of them and will keep one (best one) for me.

I have been looking at radios for my bike as well. Check out this site it has some interesting set ups. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and I think they still offer a couple of designs. I think I rather have a casset player with a MP3 aux plug. I now use a MP3 player with head sets and a splitter so the woman on back can enjoy the tunes as well. But if your rider is deaf don't let her control the volume...lol

Get yourself an Autocom ( www.autocomamerica.com/ ), fully self contained, full featured intercom between driver and passenger, full stereo audio, hook up for your cell phone, favorite audio player, bike to bike communication ( the transciever you have to buy ) and more. I put one on my Roadie, my son and I can talk bike to bike even at interstate speeds. And its nice not having to "knock helmets" with the wife to tell her something!
Just a thought....

I don't know about that "intercom" thingy, I bought the loud exhaust so I wouldn't have to hear the passenger's rants (wife).
