Harley redesigned the Street Glide’s fairing and saddlebag mounts in the 2014 model year, so a speaker kit built for the earlier 1998-2013 body style won’t bolt into a newer bike and vice versa — always buy by your exact year range, not just “Street Glide.” These ten options cover both eras, from affordable saddlebag kits to full amplified systems.

Buying tips

  • The single most common mistake buying Street Glide speakers is fitment by year: Harley changed the fairing and saddlebag mounting design in the 2014 model year, so always buy the kit matched to your specific year range (1998-2013 vs. 2014+/2014-2025), not just the model name.
  • A direct-fit kit (all six options here) avoids custom fabrication — confirm the kit lists your exact bike’s location (fairing vs. saddlebag/Tour-Pak) since front and rear speaker kits are sold separately.
  • If you’re starting from a completely stock, non-amplified sound system, a passive speaker swap (Rockford Fosgate TMS65, Hogtunes, J&M, or either Boss Audio kit) will still be limited by your stock amp’s power — the Stage III system solves that by including its own amplifier.
