Has anyone installed a subwoofer on their Valk? I have an IS not looking to shake windows, just add some richness to my sound

Not sure if anyone has done major mods to a stock Valkyrie's sound system. I gutted my Goldwing's stock system and upgraded. (Copied most of the work from JimmyT)


I used a kicker 6.75in subwoofer with a passive radiator in the left side saddlebag. A lot of the bigger speaker and audio companies are making smaller subwoofers that will fit a lot of saddlebags.

 cooldude  I have a JL Audio Sub in F6B. It adds a lot to my system.  Not sure how much adding one to a trunk would benefit. The key to the sub on my bike are strategically placed vents that are protected from water intrusion by a product called Frogzkins. My sub is in my saddlebag and the vents vent the low frequency information into the air pocket I'm riding in. Otherwise I think the bass would just get lost as you rode at higher speeds.
