Cicada Audio 24CXK65 6.5" Component Speaker Kit for 2024+ Road Glide | 2Ω or 4Ω
The Cicada Audio 24CXK65 is a complete component speaker upgrade available in 2Ω and 4Ω versions for factory speaker locations on 2024 and newer Harley-Davidson Road Glide models. Each kit combines high-output 6.5-inch Carbon Matrix Composite mid-bass drivers, shallow ring-radiator horn tweeters, external crossovers and Road Glide-specific grille integration.
High-Output Road Glide Front Stage
- Designed for 2024+ Harley-Davidson Road Glide
- Available with 2Ω or 4Ω mid-bass drivers
- Two 6.5-inch Carbon Matrix Composite drivers
- 250 watts RMS per mid-bass driver
- Separate 4Ω shallow horn tweeters
- Road Glide grille-mounted tweeter design
- External 12dB crossovers at 7kHz
- -3dB / -6dB tweeter attenuation capability
- Rain or Shine™ all-weather performance design
Cicada 24CXK65 Road Glide Kit Overview
The Cicada Audio 24CXK65 is built for Road Glide riders who want more output, stronger mid-bass and clearer high-frequency detail than a factory speaker or basic coaxial speaker replacement can provide.
This component system separates the 6.5-inch mid-bass drivers from the shallow ring-radiator horn tweeters. The tweeters mount in Road Glide-specific grille assemblies, helping create a more focused front soundstage while preserving the factory speaker locations.
Select the 24CXK65.2RG 2Ω version or the 24CXK65.4RG 4Ω version based on your amplifier, channel configuration and final system impedance.
Available Impedance Options and SKUs
24CXK65.2RG — 2-Ohm Version
Includes 2Ω 6.5-inch mid-bass drivers. Select this version when your amplifier is stable at the intended 2-ohm channel load and the speaker wiring is designed for the lower impedance.
24CXK65.4RG — 4-Ohm Version
Includes 4Ω 6.5-inch mid-bass drivers. Select this version for amplifiers and multi-speaker configurations designed around a 4-ohm channel load.
What Comes in the Kit
- Two Cicada Audio 6.5-inch mid-bass drivers in the selected 2Ω or 4Ω configuration
- Two 4Ω shallow ring-radiator horn tweeters
- Road Glide grille assemblies with integrated tweeter locations
- Two external 12dB / 7kHz component crossovers
- -3dB / -6dB tweeter attenuation capability
Why Riders Choose This Kit
Road Glide-Specific Design
Designed around factory speaker locations on 2024 and newer Harley-Davidson Road Glide models.
250W RMS Mid-Bass Drivers
The 6.5-inch drivers are built for substantial amplifier power and stronger mid-bass output in open-air motorcycle riding conditions.
2Ω or 4Ω Variants
Two impedance options allow the component kit to be matched to different amplifiers, channel loads and system configurations.
Grille-Mounted Horn Tweeters
The Road Glide grille assemblies position the shallow horn tweeters for focused high-frequency output and clearer highway listening.
External Crossovers
Separate 12dB crossovers control the transition between the mid-bass drivers and tweeters while providing attenuation options.
All-Weather Construction
Rain or Shine™ construction supports motorcycle use and changing riding conditions.
Mid-Bass Driver Technology
- Carbon Matrix Composite™ cone provides a lightweight, rigid and efficient speaker diaphragm
- OFC copper shorting ring helps extend high-frequency performance from the mid-bass driver
- OFC copper Black Coat™ voice coil supports high conductivity, low resistance and extreme thermal performance
- N35SH neodymium motor provides strong output from a compact and lightweight motor structure
- Die-cast aluminum basket features Cicada Audio Vortex Flow Venting™

Fitment and Ordering Notes
- Select 24CXK65.2RG for the 2Ω mid-bass version.
- Select 24CXK65.4RG for the 4Ω mid-bass version.
- Both versions include 4Ω horn tweeters.
- Use an amplifier stable at the final impedance presented by the speaker wiring.
- Do not connect a 2Ω load to an amplifier channel that is not rated for 2Ω operation.
- Confirm crossover placement and available fairing space before installation.
- Set amplifier gains only after all speakers and crossovers are connected.
- Professional installation and system tuning are recommended.

Cicada 24CXK65 Road Glide FAQ
What motorcycles does the 24CXK65 fit?
It is designed for factory speaker locations on 2024 and newer Harley-Davidson Road Glide models. Exact trim and factory audio configuration should be confirmed before ordering.
Is this listing for the 2Ω or 4Ω version?
This single listing includes both versions. Select 24CXK65.2RG for the 2Ω mid-bass kit or 24CXK65.4RG for the 4Ω mid-bass kit before adding the product to your cart.
Are the included tweeters 2Ω or 4Ω?
The shallow ring-radiator horn tweeters included with both kit variants are rated at 4Ω.
Which impedance should I choose?
Choose the impedance supported by your amplifier and overall speaker wiring plan. The 2Ω version may allow a compatible amplifier to produce more power, while the 4Ω version may be better suited to multi-speaker configurations or amplifiers designed around a 4-ohm channel load.
Does the kit include Road Glide grilles?
Yes. Each kit includes Road Glide grille assemblies with integrated locations for the separate horn tweeters.
Does the kit include mid-bass speakers and tweeters?
Yes. Each kit includes a pair of 6.5-inch mid-bass drivers, a pair of shallow ring-radiator horn tweeters and external crossovers.
Does this component kit need an amplifier?
A properly matched motorcycle amplifier that is stable at the selected speaker impedance is recommended to take advantage of the system’s power handling and output capability.
Are the external crossovers included?
Yes. External 12dB / 7kHz crossovers with tweeter attenuation options are included.
What warranty does Cicada Audio provide?
Cicada Audio lists a two-year manufacturer warranty for both versions of this component speaker kit.
