Getting rid of speakers
Posted: Sun Feb 10, 2019 10:32 pm
Hi all!
This is my first post but I've looked around quite a lot lately as I purchased a couple of months ago a 2005 R1200RT.
Lots of great information that helped make my mind and buy this bike.
I haven't been able to ride it very much so far as it's winter here in Canada but I'm looking forward to lots of great rides in the future!
My question: My bike initially came with the option for the radio prep with the speakers.
I don't have a radio installed and don't plan on having one.
While changing the headlights bulbs, those huge speakers and their boxes were in my way and I was wondering if it was ok for me to cut them off?
Will it mess things up with the CANBUS?
My concern is that there are some small speakers below each main speakers on each side of the dashboard and they are wired together.
What purpose do these serve?
Thanks in advance!
Alex
