    INSTALLATION OF AMPLIFIER IMPORTANT: You must use a radio with no CD player like the Kenwood KMR-M322BT or the KMR-M325BT. That way the amplifier will still fit in fairing in front of the radio. Largest amp size needs to stay at or under 8.25" wide. We recommend the Arc Audio Moto600.4 for this bike.

    TESTING AND TUNING Turn bike ignition switch to Accessory. Choose a music source and play. We recommend setting the head unit volume to 70% then slowly increase the gain until you start to hear distortion. Then back the gain off a few clicks. About Adjusting the Gain (from Arc Audio Manual): “Because of the wide range of head unit output configurations all ARC Audio amplifiers have an adjustable input sensitivity or “Gain”.
