Tunes for my 2013 ST S
I took my bike it for its 600 mile ( $ 400.00 oil change ) on sat.and they gave me a loaner that had a radio.
i liked it so much,when I got back to the dealership,I asked what it would cost to add a radio to my ST S? ONE THOUSAND BUCKS,REALLY!!!!!!!
Does anyone have any ideas as to what I can do to get some tunes for my bike that will not require a mortgage ?

there are many
stereo mods. search the diy board and the my mods board. you can spend 100- 1000, or any point in between. i've got around 150 in mine and it sounds excellent.
it was fun while it lasted.

If your handy I posted a DIY on custom speakers on my RS. I just got back from an 800 mile ride and they sounded great even at 80mph. I've got under $200 in the whole setup.

stereos
i have a pioneer head unit in the trunk, and four speakers on the dash. two memphis 5 1/4, and two 3 " dwg / shark generic. sounds great.
hchays speaker set up is a little more elegant than mine, but they both sound great. it's all in the diy section.
it was fun while it lasted.

iPod Nano with bluetooth. Lots of tunes and am/fm capability. Pick up a Sena headset and for under $400 you're cruising to your own private soundtrack. Just a thought.

I dont know what extra parts youll need but on ebay a scrap yard has the radio module from an Rt for sale for around 150.00.
Or i have a scala rider Q3 headset with aux port for sale, 120.00.

Same thing here. The radio in my 2013 st-l works good, speakers are not so great. I use the Sena bluetooth helmet set up with my iPod. Love the set up. Wife rides with me, and she has the same. Sena's work great as intercom, blue tooth to the phone or your i pod or what ever. Ryde On!

Lol, damn. Totally thought this thread was going to be about performance tunes, as in chips.

Very interesting to hear. I use my iphone along with a bt in my headset. Use some streaming like Spotify and radio over 3G and music on the phone directly. The sad part is data coverage is bad outside of urban areas. I was contemplating a nano exclusively as a radio tuner but it's using the headphone wire as an antenna. How's fm reception with the nano directly to bt?
thanks

Good question!

Further research has proven, sadly, that listening to the radio via bt on a nano isn't possible as the headphone wires act as the antenna and if the headphones are connected they override the bluetooth as output device.
