Passenger speakers

[Lobo]

Just purchased a 2012 RT Audio and Convenience. I thought there were passenger speakers, but no sound. How can I find out?

My X - GF had that model and it had rear speakers.......Check your preferences screen and see if they are turned up loud enough so you can hear then........Although the sound won't impress you, the BRP - RSI 4" speakers break up sooner than the fronts .......IMHO........that's why I changed to the JBL - 2 OHM models................and they will ROCK YOU.........................Mike

We got a new to us 2012 RT A&C last fall, you can barely hear the rear speakers, I've tried changing the fader and balance and it makes very little difference. Must just be one of those things, I couldn't hear it anyways unless I was stopped so it's not an issue for me.

Go to the setting that will let you put more sound to the rear. I run 2 plus to the rear.

Still no sound. How do I get inside the rear speaker housing?

been there done that ( a few times )........The entire side housing must come off, and to do that a lot of the rear has to be re-moved first.................WHY do you want to do this ....maybe I can help before you do it .......Mike

The AC model did not come with rear speakers. That is an add on.

If you want to put them in yourself you will need the speakers AND the wiring. There is a kit from BRP.

I did a video when I upgraded my Speakers and show you how to get at them in the front and rear.

Apparently Her A & C had the speakers as an ADD-ON......so as Bob said they aren't standard........Mike

(I just ordered speakers for my RT, and now I have a better idea of what I'm up against!

The USPS has delivered me a HUGE project...
I might just chicken-put, and call the dealer!

Once I got the coffee wiped-up; this is funny as all get-out!!

[Cmayer]

Ok I must be missing something because I am unable to get any sound out of the rear speakers. Does anyone have a suggestion?

[Bob Denman]

Yup!
Start the bike, but leave it in neutral, with the parking brake on...
Hit the "mode" button, until you see the personal preferences screen.
Scroll down (down button), until you see "audio"
Hit the "right" button
Scroll down to the "fader", then hit "right" again.
This should allow you to adjust the front to rear balance.
