[QUOTE="GPRIDER, post: 587454, member: 857"] I just hooked up a XPressEZ to my FJR before a long trip to Wiconsin this month. It's not hard to find a hot wire under the fairing somewhere under the fairing to power it. I tried some cheap earbuds I had first and it wasn't loud enough going down the road. I went to Best Buy and bought some good Sony noise canceling in the ear speakers with an in line volume control. They are loud enough because of the outside noise canceling. They actually sound good and cost $30. At first I didn't think I'd like a plug in my ear, but it's not too bad. I got used to it and they don't cancel out completely. You can still hear other outside noises, but at a much lower level. If you want wireless, you'll have to go with the J&M bluetooth unit. Only $300. Someone else Makes a bluetooth for a little less I think. But not much less. I really wanted the bluetooth so I wouldn't have to mess with the wires, but $30 versus $300 is no brainer. At least for now. If I come across some extra money in the future I might splurge for some. CycleGadgets has all kind of mounting devices for satellite radios. That's where I got mine. They'll fix you up. GP [/QUOTE]
