Congratulations and Thank-you for your purchase of the Hogtunes GEN3 speakers
for “Rushmore” platform bikes! Since positive word of mouth is the best way to
grow our business, we want your new speakers to work as well as they were
designed to. If you have any questions or concerns, we are here to help. Email
info@hogtunes.com or call us during regular business hours (EST) at 705-719-6361.
If you still need help, then please consider a professional installation by your dealer.
Front Speaker Instructions For 362F-RM In FLH (Batwing) Models:
Step #1: Make sure your ignition switch stays in the “OFF” position. Remove
your outer fairing/headlamp assembly and set aside. Refer to a service manual if
you need help with this. NOTE: Placing a towel on the front fender can help
prevent scratches or “dings” from dropped tools or fasteners, etc.
Step#2: Speaker Cabinet Removal: On the brake side speaker cabinet, carefully
remove the cable going into the power port/cigarette lighter assembly. If your
bike has the CB module (mounted “sideways” on the clutch side cabinet) undo
the antenna cable and main harness. The CB Module will stay attached to the
clutch side cabinet when removed. Undo the speaker wire plugs going into each
cabinet (pink & pink with black stripe wires).
NOTE: We STRONGLY suggest completing the speaker swap on one side and
then moving to other side! Figure 1.1 and 1.2 (below) have arrows that point to
the factory fasteners that will be removed to allow the cabinets to come out of
the bike. Although the Brake Side is shown below, fastener locations are
common for both brake and clutch side cabinets.
Step #3: Installing The New Speaker: With the cabinet removed from bike
undo the 4 screws that hold the factory speaker to the cabinet. Carefully
take off each speaker wire by disconnecting one at a time. Take a Hogtunes
speaker and attach the factory speaker wires noting they will only go on
one way. The #1 reason for tech related calls is loose wires at the speaker
which is why we designed the self-locking clips on the speaker frame.
Using the factory screws, attach the Hogtunes speaker to the cabinet noting
that there is a locator “peg” on the cabinet and a hole in the speaker’s
frame which need to line up. The factory speaker grill can be left in or
replaced with the supplied metal mesh grill using the 3 factory screws on
the inside of the fairing. In the Hogtunes grill, you will see two holes and
one “keyhole” where the screws go through and into the fairing. The
keyhole in the Hogtunes grill needs to be oriented so it is closest to the
radio on each side for proper fitment! Using the factory cloth grills will
cause a reduction volume! With the grills in place and the speaker properly
attached to the speaker cabinet, the cabinet can be re-installed.
Repeat Step #3 for the second cabinet. Plug the factory speaker wires back
into the cabinet’s speaker wires and your speakers are ready to test. Make
sure to plug the power cable back into the power port/cigarette lighter
assembly on the brake side. If your bike has the CB module, make sure to
re-install the antenna cable and main harness. Re-install your fairing and
windshield and your new speakers are ready to enjoy!
362R-RM Rear Speaker Installation Instructions:
Step #1: Make sure your ignition switch stays in the “OFF” position.
Remove the factory speaker grills by undoing the 4 screws on the front of
the grills. Carefully lift up on each speaker and take the 2 wires off by
pulling one at a time from the stock speaker. Remove the speakers.
Step #2: Hogtunes 362R-RM rear speakers are a direct replacement for the
OE speakers. The female OE “in-line” connectors mate with the male
connectors on each speaker and only go on one way. The number 1 reason
for tech support calls is due to loose connections at the speaker. Please
make sure you have a very good connection to avoid this. Once you are
confident the factory wires are correctly attached to the new speakers, set
them in place, install the supplied grills or factory grills and secure the
speaker by reinstalling the 4 screws per grill. Using the factory grills will
cause a slight reduction in high frequency volume! Note: The factory rubber
“nutserts” on the rear pod side can be finicky. It’s a good idea to get all 4
grill screws “started” and then get each one snug. Gradually tighten each
one down making sure all 4 screws holding the grill down are secure! Turn
your radio on to make sure both speakers are playing and you are done!
