Thank you for choosing the Hogtunes Model FL7REV Amplified 7” Fairing
Lower Woofer kit. Since positive word of mouth is the best way to grow our
business, we want your new system to work as well as it was designed to. If
you have any questions or concerns, we are here to help.
Adjusting Your System--Please Read!
In order to make your new system perform as good as it was designed,
please take a minute to understand and follow these tips:
1) Set your “Automatic Volume Control” (AVC) to 3 bars. After extensive on
road testing, we found that this AVC position works and sounds best. Your
new amplifier has been specifically set-up for this radio setting.
2) Your Hogtunes system is designed specifically for a motorcycle at speed.
Exhaust noise and wind noise have been taken into careful consideration
in how your system performs. How your new system sounds in a driveway
or garage is radically different from how it will sound at highway speeds.
Although your system was set-up with a factory radio with its bass and
treble controls in the middle position, if you feel the need to make
adjustments, please do so (carefully) at your normal cruising speed.
3) If you have an aftermarket car radio on your bike, everything will work
fine, but please remember that car radios are designed to work in an
environment with little or no exhaust or wind noise. Many car radios have
“features” such as equalizers, loudness contours, surround effects, etc., all
designed for a quiet environment, and all of which will hurt your ability to
hear your motorcycle system at speed if left on. Please take a minute and
turn as much of these “features” off. With a car radio in your bike, the
only adjustments you should be able to access for best performance are
volume, bass, treble, balance, and fader.
4) If your using an external device to supply music through the radios
aux port, we have an article on our website that can help make your
peripheral audio device sound as good as it can. The article is at:

assistance, please consider a professional
installation by your motorcycle dealer.

GETTING STARTED
Step #1: Remove the seat, and both wires (+ and -) from the battery.
Step #2: Remove the outer fairing/headlamp assembly. Refer to a service manual
if you need help with this. Note: A towel on the front fender can help
prevent scratches or “dings” from dropped tools or fasteners etc.
Expletives will also be kept to a minimum.

Hogtunes FL7 REV works on any 1998 and newer bike with a factory radio
and VENTED (2005+) Ultra style fairing lowers. The radio will power the existing
speakers, and the amp powers the speakers in the lowers only. You can see how to
add more speakers/amps to your system further on in the manual.
Woofer or Sub-Woofer? The 7” woofer is a large full range speaker
without an additional high frequency speaker (tweeter). The woofer is designed to
enhance sound at speed and will give a “full” range of sound, but should not be
confused with a “Sub-Woofer”. For more information, please read the article at:
http://www.hogtunes.com/techzone_files/7_inch_woofer_vs_sub.pdf
IMPORTANT: If you are installing this kit on a
2006-2010 Screamin’ Eagle® Ultra Classic, you will
need to go to page 14 for the special plug and play
instructions required to make the Hogtunes amp work
in unison with the factory amplifier mounted under your
Tour-Pak.
If you’re installing this kit on a 2011+ CVO Road Glide
Ultra or 2011+ CVO Ultra, please call for technical help.
Due to a harness change on these model year bikes, this
kit is NOT quite plug and play, but is easy to make work.

CHOOSING THE CORRECT MOUNTING
OPTION FOR YOUR EXISTING SYSTEM
If you have a Standard, Street Glide, Classic, or
Ultra Classic, and this is the only amp in your fairing
• The amplifier gets mounted to the top of the factory radio using the supplied
“hook and loop” adhesive, and must sit so you can read the text on top of the
amplifier as in diagram 1.1
• The amplifier needs to mount as far back on the radio as possible so the fairing
can go back on. The minimum distance from the back of the radio to the most
forward edge of the amplifier is 5/8” (15mm).
• On pre-2006 model bikes, it is a tight fit--but will go.
• 2006+ (Advanced Audio) radios have a “bump” on top of the radio that runs
from front to back down the center of the radio. Cut the adhesive in half and ap-
ply each piece on either side of this bump. The amp will then mount flush. Most
adhesives work best at room temperature or higher.
• Note: 2006 and newer Ultras have the CB module on top of the radio. The amp
will adhere on top of the CB module so it is “half on/half off this module as
shown in Diagram 1.2. The supplied adhesive is plenty strong for this! The amp
can adhere on top of CB and XM modules without issue.

ORANGE: Remote Turn On Lead
RED: 12v Positive--Attaches Directly to “+” Battery Post
BLACK: 12v Negative--Attaches Directly to “-” Battery Post
WIRING THE AMPLIFIER
Step #1: Plug the 2 connectors of the main wire harness into “Power” and “Audio
Input” on the amplifier. Tighten (snug) the 2 small flathead screws on the
power connector to prevent it from backing out while riding.
Step #2: On the input harness, locate the yellow/black pair of wires with the
male connectors and plug them into the factory speaker wires on the
clutch side of the bike. Also on the input harness, locate the green/
black pair of wires with the male connectors and plug them into the
factory speaker wires on the brake side of the bike. The connectors are
sized correctly, and will only go in one way.
Step #3: Locate the wire harness with the blue plug and white/black, and red
black wires on it, and plug it into the blue plug which is part of the input
harness you just installed into the amp. Take the white/black wires and
connect them directly to the clutch side main fairing speaker. Take the
red/black wires and connect them directly to the brake side speaker.
Step #4: On the opposite side of the amp are 3” (75mm) wires ending with a 4
pin black connector. This plug sends amplified power to your speakers.
Locate the 4 pin black plug wire harness with brown/black and blue/
black wires, and plug it into the amplified output plug. If not already
installed, plug the wires that will go into your lowers marked clutch side
and brake side into the open end of the harness you just plugged into
the amplified output plug.

Step #5: The orange wire is the “remote turn on lead” and tells the amp to turn on
whenever it sees +12v (.5 amp min.). Unplug the factory center wire (+)
on the cigarette lighter. Plug the orange lead from the amplifier directly
onto the lighter using the female connector. Plug the factory lighter wire
to the male “take off” connector which is part of the amps orange turn
on lead. Important: If you do not attach the orange wire from the amp
to the center wire at the cigarette lighter, the amplifier will not turn on.
If the factory fuse for your cigarette lighter is blown, and your cigarette
lighter does not work, your amplifier will not turn on.
Step #6: The red (B+) and black wires (B-), and the speaker wires marked “Clutch
Side” and “Brake Side” of the main wire harness will pass under the
inner fairing where the throttle and idle and/or bikes main wire harness
pass through on the brake side of the bike. Let the Clutch Side and Brake
Side wires hang on the front side of the crash bar for now. The red and
black wires are designed to be routed under the gas tank and across
the motor mount on the brake side of the bike, and come out just behind
the gas tank. You may need to undo the back bolt of the gas tank and
pivot the tank up to allow the harness to pass through at the back of the
gas tank. Be sure to re-install this bolt and torque to factory specs! When
correctly installed, the power and ground wires are the right length to
connect onto the battery.
NOTE: on ‘07 and newer bikes it is much easier to run
power and ground wires up and over the gas tank,
but under the chrome gas tank console!
Step #7: Attach the red wire to the positive (+) battery terminal, and the black
wire to the negative (-) battery terminal. The factory battery wires are
also re-installed at this point. Secure the FL7 Rev harness to the bikes
factory harness’ along the frame and behind the tank using supplied
zip ties.

Note: Harness will pass over front gas
tank mount/bolt. Opening the fuse holder
and removing the fuse will allow the wires
to pass easier. Careful!--The ring terminals
can easily scratch paint!

INSTALLING THE SPEAKERS
INTO YOUR LOWERS
Step #1: Remove access covers from the front of the glove boxes. Using a cutting
tool such as side cutters, the 4 male parts each access panel snaps into
will be cut and removed. Cutting them from inside the glove box will
eliminate marks on the front of the glove box. When cut, parts may “fly”
so please be careful and wear eye protection!
Step #2: Looking inside the glove box, locate the 2 nuts at the back of the glove
boxes, and remove. This will release the painted lower fairing “cap” so
be careful it doesn’t fall and get scratched!! Remove and put aside.
Step #3: • Looking from the front side of lower, locate the flat plane approx.
1” towards the motor, directly across from the lower bolt hole for the
fairing cap just removed.
• Drill a 1/8”(3mm) pilot hole in the center of this plane, then a final
5/16”(8mm) hole. You will go through 2 layers.
• The wires that go into lowers are marked clutch side/brake side. Pass
wire into glove box, large connector first. The sticker can be removed
to fit through the hole if needed. Pull up any slack into the glove box
so that wire will go along crash bar, making sure to keep quick
release plugs in the center.
• Using the supplied black “gummy” material, seal the hole around the
wires inside the glove box.
Step #4: • Pull grills off and remove woofers from adaptors.
• Locate the angled woofer holder for the side of the bike your working
on and attach it to the glove box opening using the parts in the kit.
Supplied hardware goes through the holes made when male plugs
were cut. Washers will go on the studs inside the glove box before
securing the adaptor down with the supplied nuts.
• Once secured, reinstall the painted lower fairing cap.
• Take a speaker and attach the speaker wires.
• Locate the silver “posts” with the hex key opening and put the woofer
in place. Start each thread into the brass inserts in the angled woofer
holder BY HAND!!!!! After all the threads are started, use supplied
hex key to tighten the woofer into place. Press the grill into place by
lining up the holes on the inside of the grills on to the silver posts
• Please MAKE SURE the female rubber parts on the inside of the grill
attach to all 4 posts holding the woofer in. Failure to do so can allow
the grill to come off while riding.
(continued on next page)

Step#5: Once everything is complete in both lowers, use the supplied wire ties to
secure the exposed speaker wires to the crash bar. Moving back into the
fairing, use supplied wire ties to secure the FL7 REV harness to the bike.
Before re-installing outer fairing, turn front
wheel to each extreme side making sure any
wiring is not impeding the steering of the
motorcycle. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death!
• Turn your system on and make sure both woofers are working.
• On the side of the NCA 70.2 amplifier, there is a 3 position gain switch.
Adjusting this switch up or down allows you to “tune” how the new woofers
sound along side the rest of the speakers in your system.
• Take one last look at all the wiring you have done, and using zip ties, make
sure everything is secure and safe for a bike at speed. Reinstall your outer
fairing and enjoy the latest edition to the Hogtunes system on your bike!
• Before riding, please go back and make sure that the 4 rubber parts on the
underside of each lower grill is firmly seated on all 4 posts that hold each
woofer in!
The next 3 pages are designed
to show how you can integrate this Hogtunes kit
into a full Hogtunes system on your bike if you
ever wish to make additions.

SYSTEM UPGRADE #1
This system has the incredible power of 2 NCA 70.2 to your bike! The first amp
will run your fairing speakers, and HF-1/HF-2RG Tweeter Pod (if present). The
amplifier supplied in your FL7/Rev kit is used to power the 7” woofers. If you have
an Ultra Classic, or Road Glide Ultra, in this configuration, your radio will con-
tinue to power your rear speakers
WARNING: If you choose to add a 2nd amp to power your fairing speakers,
please make sure the speakers you have can handle the ACTUAL power of this
amp! Stock speakers should not be used. If you choose a brand other than
Hogtunes for your fairing speakers, be advised, we have seen many competitors
over-rate the ACTUAL power handling of their speakers by as much as 3 times!!
Use supplied blue plug send
signal from expansion port of first
amp to input of second amp
Optional
HF-1/HF-2RG
Tweeter Pod
11 12
SYSTEM UPGRADE #2
This system uses a Hogtunes NCA-40.4 160 watt 4 channel amp and a NCA
70.2 for the ultimate in power! As shown below, the typical system would have 2
channels of the 40.4 power the fairing speakers while the other 2 channels power
the rear speakers. The bypass out of 40.4 is used to send music to the NCA 70.2
which powers the fairing lower speakers. If you have an Ultra or RG Ultra, our
Big Ultra, or Big RG kits have everything you need for this upgrade all in one box.
Everything installs easy and your fader still controls front/rear. If you have a “non-
Ultra” but have added a King Tour-Pak® and Ultra Style Fairing Lowers, Hogtunes
Rear Speaker Pods can be added and the system below is also easily done.
Use supplied blue plug send
signal from expansion port of first
amp to input of second amp
Optional
HF-1/HF-2RG
Tweeter Pod
