    Rear Speakers

    My 93 VIII has got some crackling rear speakers. My question: Are there any aftermarket bolt ins or do I need to find used ones? I would rather not have to " Make them fit." Second part: if used is the way to go I need at least one tweeter and the larger one for the rear left.

    How Hot Is Too Hot

    The 93 has a temp guage that has a wide range for NORMAL. I noticed mine runs up almost to the N in NORMAL. This is close to the RED H for HOT. At the time I was driving about 80 MPH with the A/C on and it was about 85 outside. As I slowed down to 65 and shut the A/C off it ran cooler, like in...
