5. Remove wire caddy cover.
a. Carefully release each tab along the caddy until it lifts completely.
SPEAKER INSTALLATION

AMP INSTALLATION
If you have a 2020 Street or Tri Glide, the following steps must be completed before amplifier installation:
Remove four screws from the HD Connect Module. Remove Module from Bracket. Relocate Module to the clutch side of the radio and secure with two 8” zip ties included. (Fig. 4 and Fig 5.)
NOTE: There may be some connectors that will need to be relocated off of the radio chassis for the amp bracket to fit.
10. Fasten the amplifier to the bracket with the supplied hardware.
a. Insert the bolts through the bottom of the bracket and install the locknuts to the amplifier.
11. At this time, it is highly recommended to set the amp gain setting to 0. KICKER recommends that the dip switches be set up as follows (Fig 6):
Auto turn-on - 12VInput level - HIAmp1: HI-PASS – 80 Hz Input Gain control – 0
Fader - ONAmp2: HI-PASS – 60 Hz (6x9)
80 Hz (6.5” Tour Pack)
12. After finishing System Setup, use the supplied ¼” hardware and fasten the amp/bracket assembly to the radio chassis with the 10-pin connector and power connector facing the throttle
side. (Fig. 7)
HARNESS INSTALLATION
13. Plug the harness into the amplifier and route the speaker wires to their respective locations. (Fig. 8)
a. Separate the speaker connectors and plug in the amplifier harness to each speaker.
14. Plug the 4-pin male, rear audio connector into the 4-pin female rear audio signal connector coming from the radio harness. (Fig. 9 and Fig. 10)
15. Plug the switched power harness into the 2-pin amp connector on the throttle side of the fairing. (Fig. 11)
16. Plug the blue wire on the kicker harness into the switched power harness lead with one wire.
a. This allows for an accessory 12V port to remain available.
17. Route the power leads along the clutch side of the frame neck, in the electrical caddy to the seat area. (Fig. 12)
NOTE: If you are not running rear speaker lids or tour pack, please plug in the Dummy Load Plug into the amplified rear speaker output at the end of the harness. (Figs. 13, 14, 15)
18. Reconnect the battery terminals and pull the excess harness slack back into the fairing. Create a slack loop with excess harness slack.
19. Plug the radio in, and set the gain.
