Cycle Sounds Speaker Replacement


Chris,
One of the speakers on my 2 Wheel Tunes motorcycle sound system has blown. Is there a trick to getting the old speaker out of the housing? Thanks, Jim

Great question Jim.
To change a speaker in a Cycle Sounds or 2 Wheel Tunes motorcycle sound system just follow these steps:
1) Unscrew the speaker grill just enough to allow a medium sized flat blade screw driver to fit between the speaker grill and the bullet housing.
2) wrap a soft cloth around the end of the screw driver and gently pry between the speaker grill and the housing. Work your way all around the speaker so that the assembly comes out evenly. Continue this procedure until the inner speaker seperates from the bullet housing. The speaker should now be dangling from the wires with the grill still attached.
3) Unscrew the grill from the speaker. Disconnect or cut the speaker wires as close to the defective speaker as possible. Discard bad speaker.
4) Using included hardware, attach the new speaker to the speaker wires inside the bullet housing.
5) Screw the grill back on to the speaker and gently (and evenly) press the new motorcycle speaker back into the bullet housing. You may need to unscrew the speaker grill slightly in order for the new speaker to seat all the way down into the bullet housing.
6) Tighten speaker grill and you are all set.

That's all there is to replacing a Cycle Sounds or 2 Wheel Tunes bullet speaker assembly.
