Blow Through'ish Harley King Tourpack single 8" 400w RMS

[Shane35Fowler]

So I am Considering building a Box inside my Motorcycle TourPack. It's a Knockoff 2014+ HD King Tourpack the Goal is the Build a Removable Box/Port Design that Blows Through the Tourpack twords the Rider(Me) Aero port most likely.... lowest of lows obviously aren't the goal here but something that plays relatively wide band. The sub I'm most likely going to use is a Savard Rap 8" DVC on a JBL BR-A 400.1(Brazilian model) I am open to other Sub suggestions buttttt space is a premium.
internal dimensions are 20"W x 10.5"H x 12.5"D.


Current Setup is 5.25" chan 3&4 of DSP Infinity kappa 50.9CS in the Front Fairing and 6.5" Chan 5&6 of DSP Infinity kappa 60.9CS in the rear Tourpack Pods. Have a JBL DSP4086 DSP/AMP and JBL BR-A 400.4, Banda Black 400.4.
have toyed with the idea of using a Single Wide band like the CDT Audio ES02CF Pod as a Center/Tweet/Mid on Channel 7. And still trying to figure if I want to use a dedicated 3.5" or Super tweets on Channel 1&2

Chan 8 will be Sub

This isn't for any Grudge or competitions...... Just my own personal listening bliss.

interesting idea.....but to be honest i dont think your gonna be able hear much output from an 8" sub going down the road on a loud bike....not worth the time and cost. The enclosure will have to be a decent size to get any kind of output....and how are you gonna mount that on/in a bike?

Using just Woofer Box Pro. With the Included Rap 8 Parameters and .7-.8 Ported Box looks like I'll need a 2.18 Aero at 8.5" long? Anyone able to model this in another Program and see if that stacks up

https://www.savardspeakersystems.com/rap-8-d4v2 or D2 it doesn't matter as I haven't purchased the sub amp yet.

A Box inside of the Box.... Lol the Tourpack is a Trunk basically. There is an area below the backrest that I can use to cut the port to blow through to my back.

Sorry the above post was supposed to have quoted your text too....new to this forum....gimmie a min to get the hang of it .
My Bike is NOT a loud bike at all.... Cockpit is fairly well protected from Wind noise and my exhaust isn't that loud(it's a Honda F6B or a Goldwing basically). Hopefully having T/A from the DSP and 31 Band PEQ will help some. Lol.

*Edit-add* Or do you think using something like a PA Sub with a much higher Sensitivity but normally means higher FS would get the Job done better?

No no no....I wasn't trying to discourage you from participating. Hope it didn't come off like that.
My Bike is really not louder than a typical v8 with exhaust or Turbo diesel. It sounds like a stock Porsche because it has a flat 6. With exhaust. But with no drone.

I know a single Rap 8 in a 4th Order has done 136.8DB..... but I don't have room for that and I'm sure Cabin gain is not going to be a thing in my application.
