Congratulations on your purchase of Hogtunes HF-1 tweeter Pod. Since positive word of mouth is the best way to grow our business, we want your new
tweeter pod to work as well as it was designed to. If you have any questions or
concerns, we are here to help. Email info@hogtunes.com, or call us during
regular business hours (EST) at 705-719-6361. A complete set of these instructions with photos is available on our website at www.hogtunes.com. If you still
need help, then please consider a professional installation by your motorcycle
dealer.
If you have the Hogtunes kit which includes the 4 channel amplifier, front
speakers, and this tweeter pod, please refer to that instruction manual, visit our
website, or call us.
Tweeter Pod Installation Instructions
Step #1: Remove the ground wire from the battery, or make sure your ignition
switch stays in the “OFF” position. Remove your outer fairing/headlamp assembly, and set it aside. Refer to a service manual if you need help with this.
Step #2: NOTE: If you already have a Fairing Dash Pad (HD Part # 58262-05)
remove the unit from the bike, and skip to Step #5. Your kit comes with a small
triangle shaped “drilling template” with two 1/8” (3mm) holes in it. Please note
one side says “clutch side” and the other side says “brake side”. There is a “V”
formed in the inner fairing plastic where the drilling template fits into. On the
brake side of the bike, hold the drilling template “in” this “V” so the words
“brake side” are showing. Using a 1/8” (3mm) drill bit, drill the pilot holes, repeat for the clutch side and enlarge all 4 holes to 5/16” (8mm).
Step #3: With the tweeter pod in hand, move to the seat side of the bike, and
run the speaker wires through the bottom 5/16” (8mm) holes just drilled.

This kit comes with “see through” grills installed, and a second set covered
with grill cloth. To change grills, remove the 2 screws holding the small circuit
board in place on the back side of the pod, and straighten up the 4 folded over
“legs” Once straight, pushing on each leg will allow the grill to release from the
pod. Sit the new grill in place making sure it is fully “seated” and fold the legs
over to secure. Re-install the circuit board.
Step #4: Holding the tweeter pod in place, locate the mounting screws with
washers and install them through the upper holes, making sure the tweeters
wires are not in the way of the screws going in. Make them snug, but do not
over tighten. DO NOT USE “SCREW GLUE”.
The supplied mounting hardware and hole size allow room for minor adjustments, so before the part is
completely secured into place, make sure it is lined up where you want it. If
you are replacing a HD Fairing Dash Pad (HD Part # 58262-05) you need to
use their washers which are larger diameter than the supplied washers. You
may want to start the bike to check for rattles. If anything is rattling, use the
supplied loose piece of foam to “shim” the pod and stop any rattles.
Step #5: Unplug the 2 speaker wires on the brake side front fairing speaker.
Using a “Y” cable that came in the kit, plug the 2 larger male connectors of the
“Y” jack into the female connectors that were just unplugged at the speakernoting they will only go in one way. The female connectors on the “Y jack will
now plug into the front fairing speakers-again, they will only go on one way.
Plug the 2 wires with smaller male spades on the brake side tweeter into the 2
remaining connectors on the “Y” Jack. Repeat for the clutch side.
Step#6: Re-install the battery ground wire, turn your radio on and confirm
that both speakers and both tweeters are playing. You can adjust the tweeters
sound using the treble control on your radio. Re-install your outer fairing and
your new speakers are ready to enjoy!
