Rev Up Your Ride: Top Harley-Davidson Audio & Radio installations by Hawk Installations.


Imagine cruising along Lake Michigan’s stunning shores or pulling up to the Harley-Davidson Museum in Milwaukee, your Harley-Davidson’s engine roaring and your favorite playlist streaming seamlessly through a state-of-the-art radio with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. For riders in Milwaukee, Waukesha, Ozaukee, Washington, and Racine counties, upgrading your Harley’s audio and radio system can transform every ride. Hawk Installations, the premier 12V installation shop in the greater Milwaukee area, specializes in top-tier upgrades featuring brands like Soundstream, Kenwood, Sony, Cicada Audio, Hertz Audio, Rockford Fosgate, and iDatalink Maestro.




Why Upgrade Your Harley-Davidson’s Audio and Radio?

Stock Harley audio systems are solid, but they often struggle against road noise, wind, or your V-Twin’s rumble. Aftermarket audio and radio upgrades deliver crystal-clear sound, powerful bass, and modern connectivity like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto for navigation, music, and hands-free calls. Whether you’re cruising Milwaukee’s streets, touring Waukesha’s countryside, or riding near Lake Michigan in Ozaukee or Racine, a custom setup makes every mile epic—especially with a stop at the Harley-Davidson Museum.

Here’s a rundown of the top audio and radio upgrade brands for your Harley.
