Hey guys I see people a paying money for the rear speaker wire harness adaptor for faring mounted amp , it is a great option for people who don't want to splice wires or leave the sock wiring intact.
However I am cheap and also feel the shorter wire run produces less interference and stronger signal to the amp. With the adapter harness the preout wire will be running down the frame then all the way back up to your new amp. During that trip the signal will be getting weaker and picking up interference.
from looking at pics posted by Poseidon in his install write up I was able to trace the wires back to the faring using my multi meter , this is what I found.

This is the connector the "adaptor" harness plugs into.

This is the harness located in the faring with the wires , had to do a little leg work to figure out the channels but
orange/red wire = L+ & orange/black wire = L- .
Pink/red wire = R+ & pink/black wire =R-
I will add I have not done this on my bike yet so please if you decide to do it , double check every thing I have mentioned here and assume I am wrong.
