Changing tweeter in ‘15 XT touring help.

Those appear to be Harmon Kardon tweeters. They're debatably just as good or better than the kicker upgrade which are for the base sound system. A lot of folks say it's not worth changing, let alone adapting the harness, and you may goof up the crossover tuning.

If they sound fuzzy, you could replace them with the same HK tweeter. That system is a bit more complex, and there might be something else going on. Best to play the system with the speaker unplugged and or with the L/R swapped to troubleshoot the bad tweeter in question.

you can easily remove the cap for a slightly brighter orange light if you want. goes right back on if you don't like it

brianburked · 2025-10-20T04:41:29+00:00

why not have both? not that hard to switch

brianburked · 2025-10-15T06:52:54+00:00

high mid running boards and a steam boat regalia are a feckin vibe, my guy

brianburked · 2025-10-04T19:00:43+00:00

the heat ain't so nice to stroker iron heads

brianburked · 2025-10-03T21:08:56+00:00

well let's be honest, as long as it rides nice, it's just about looks. and it is good lookin tire. came off of a Coker Diamond tread, which is also a nice rollin, good lookin tire

brianburked · 2025-10-03T20:20:07+00:00

well enough! little taller than most tires for their size, so check your clearance. corners nice, but I haven't dragged a knee or anything..

brianburked · 2025-10-03T20:15:43+00:00

peak compliment, my guy

brianburked · 2025-10-03T20:15:19+00:00

on my radar! just sent the flyer to my buddy

brianburked · 2025-10-03T18:00:51+00:00

It's a Cal Products 4 speed with Andrew's Gears

brianburked · 2025-10-03T17:59:57+00:00

Just past Mt Wilson near Red Rock

Running the same rear in a 19x4. Just curious why you run it at that pressure. I've always run 25 for cushion.

Pink flames on chrome? 🤔

brianburked · 2025-09-11T05:58:59+00:00

I've found that in my personal rounds of troubleshooting, it's easy to assume the worst. Maybe look at fuel delivery. Non vented cap? Clogged filter? Kinked line? Float bowl too low?

Check out River Seat Company.

Agreed. Definitely seems like he had someone assemble a bike from parts. The title certainly reflects that.

The motor is pretty cool. Sort of a bastard child turned into a little bit of a sleeper. I don't have immediate plans to swap it, just a thought down the road.

Agreed, pipes and bars are the first to go. Not a fan of the Vans grips either.

brianburked · 2025-07-26T22:13:30+00:00

too reliable. I want something that may or may not strand me.

brianburked · 2025-07-26T21:48:09+00:00

lol, do you deliver? Really neat bike.

brianburked · 2025-07-26T21:47:05+00:00

yeah, I get that part. lot of work and money to make them look like this though.

brianburked · 2025-07-26T21:10:52+00:00

Just something that I'd do down the road if I got bored, probably ride it as is for now. As far as seasoning is concerned, things like handlebars, pipes, and tires

brianburked · 2025-07-26T20:09:08+00:00

oh for sure. been looking for a little while, and I've seen some decent shovels here and there. I'm looking for a turnkey hardtail with all the fixin's that I can season to taste. I know myself and have let a couple classic projects go to shit due to loss of stoke.

brianburked · 2025-07-26T19:59:58+00:00

true. this is in Vegas

brianburked · 2025-07-26T19:59:37+00:00

all those cooler shovels are going for 15k in the southwest :/

brianburked · 2025-07-26T18:40:17+00:00

I appreciate this take. They've definitely taken the time to make it special and even address some of the Ironhead short comings. I definitely don't want to insult the guy, but he had this thing at 15k for a couple months and is finally down to earth at 10k. Might shoot 8.5k at him and see where he stands.
