[Lorenzo e Chiara Marsigli] Hi there Fan@ics!
Hi @ics!
I´m thinking about equipping my ´98 RD07 with a sound-system and would
like to know if maybe some of you already had that idea/wish?
[Lorenzo e Chiara Marsigli] yes, I did. Altough my solution is quite unsafe (and so i just tell it to u... accept it at your own risk), it is very simple: a simple Walkman and audio earplugs. I put the walkman in my jacket pocket, the earlplug wire under the front buttons line, then earplug in the ears and I wear and close my helmet.
This system is obviously unsafe (and illegal too) since at high volumes you don't hear nothing but music. Nevertheless, a very simple way (no modification to do, except if you want to powe the walkman with @ battery) and the sound quality is eccellent.
I don't think external speakers are a good device to listen music on a motorcycle. Usually you get a too high pitched result... something like "tschitschitschi" :))

I ride my two @s for more than 100.000 km in the past 4 years, half of them while listening to music. How this could happen?! Should I suddenly stop? :) IMHO, @riders and their proudly owned bike can do as they best feel....Vlada, pls don't feel flamed for this. take it as a joke:)
