Located near Richmond, Virginia, the team at Extreme Audio has worked on audio upgrades for BMW K1600 and R1200/1250RT motorcycles since 2018. Backed by more than 25 years of experience in the mobile electronics industry, they saw an opportunity to provide BMW Motorrad enthusiasts with premium audio system upgrades. In 2022, they created a new company called Motorrad Audio and began selling their direct-fit speaker pods, amplification solutions and bike-specific wire harnesses.
Expert 3D Modeling
While there are numerous options for Harley-Davidson audio upgrades, the Motorrad Audio team identified a gap in the market for BMW bikes. Leveraging their extensive background in 3D scanning, design and fabrication, they embarked on a mission to develop their own products. The result? Audio system upgrade solutions with amazing sound quality, impressive output, sleek design and perfect fit and finish.
Crucially, Motorrad speaker pods look like they belong on the motorcycle. We’ve seen aftermarket audio solutions that, quite simply, look like an afterthought. If you didn’t know the bike, you’d think the Motorrad Audio upgrades were installed as it rolled off the assembly line.
Everything You Need for Great BMW Motorcycle Audio
Having installed hundreds of audio upgrade kits on Harley-Davidson, Yamaha, Honda, Victory and BMW motorcycles, the Motorrad Audio team knew which features and design elements ensure efficient and reliable performance while offering exceptional sound quality. They combined these features when selecting the products to use with their kits and developing the wiring harnesses.
Each kit includes a harness with OE-grade connectors that eliminate the need to modify factory wiring. The T-harnesses connect to the factory audio system wiring to extract a clean audio signal and send it to your choice of a medium- or high-power amplifier. The kits include amplifier power and ground wiring, a high-quality water-resistant fuse holder, audio signal and speaker wire connectors. The connectors are color-coded for a smooth installation.
Each kit also includes a preinstalled mounting bracket for the amplifier, stainless-steel fasteners and packets of dielectric silicone. Special laser-cut gaskets help keep water out of the amplifier.
Attention to detail includes preconfiguring the amplifier you’ve chosen to work with the factory-installed radio on each BMW motorcycle. This eliminates any guesswork in maximizing sound performance while minimizing noise and hiss.
Motorrad Audio works with all the industry’s top motorcycle audio product manufacturers. You can choose speaker solutions from companies like ARC Audio, Cicada Audio, Diamond Audio, Hertz, Infinity or Precision Power.
