Do you have contact information for Ben? I would be interested in this style of enclosure for my F3.

Good morning,
for those of you with the shark audio on the F3..... Did you hook it up directly to the battery where it is always on? If not where did you power it from?

thank you

I'd recommend an in-helmet audio system... you can chat with your passenger when you have one, answer your phone, and listen to tunes/radio on your phone.

I got http://www.sena.com/product/intercoms/3s/

It's worked well for me.

Looking into Sena 10c as well as Shark system, know they are totally different products.

I had the JL system added to my F3. It sounds amazing but it was pretty costly because it had to be a custom job. JL has the pre-made system for the older spyders but hasn't made one for the F3 so we duplicated the pre-made system. .uploadfromtaptalk1445193602007.jpg

1400 watt Shark Audio. USB, SD and Bluetooth. Best tunes I've ever had on a bike. I've installed 4 of them on F3's now and they all say the same thing.

Hi, I just checked their website and the system u mentioned ( the 1400 w) is offered with chrome speakers only. Am I able to request black speakers instead? And is it possible to hook up a subwhoofer to the system as well? Any clarification will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I recently installed this 600W system on my F3-S... It was on sale at Shark and installation was pretty easy..... The biggest issue I had was running the speaker wires so they didn't show. It took about 1.5 hrs.

I wired the Shark stereo directly to the battery. I tried the Aux power, but then you could not run the stereo without the motor running. The Shark system I bought has a wired handlebar remote, and I simply turn it on or off from the remote. The Shark manual is not very complete and I missed the fine print the first time stating you have you have to hold down the power button for several seconds to turn the system on or off from the remote, but it's there....

The F3-T comes with a radio option maybe that could be fitted to the F3

I have the Sena SMH-10 Bluetooth Headset. The speakers sound great and I can talk on my phone if needed.

Custom designed and manufactured for me by Ben@CarToys, Portland, OR.

Which store in Portland, I'd like to get up with Ben, be nice if they listed it on their web site!

Nice pics, thank you for posting. Where did you guys connect the main power cable to? Did it affect the harness as far as having to re-calibrate anything?
