Anyone know of a good and safe way to get a cd out of the cd player? I have one stuck. It was playing just fine, then I wanted to change it. Hit the eject button but nothing happened. Tried several times with no luck. When you cycle the band select button sometimes it will stop on cd selection for few seconds but then move on to the next band. Sometimes it will not even stop on the cd band it goes from am-fm-fm2-weatherband-am and so on. My bike is an 05 model ultra classic.This really sux, got to have my tunes for the road.......any help is greatly appreciated.
sometimes you can get them out with tweezers while your pressing eject. in my truck I beat on the dash and they come out sometimes. I have a H/K radio that's almost brand new sitting in my toolbox if you are interested just haven't tried to sell it yet. PM me if you want it
You might want to give Iron Cross Audio a call. They might be able to advise you and, worst case, they will fix the radio and provide a 1 year warranty for $250. They also have some neat mods available. You can call them at 201-207-7157 .
Forget the cd and do yourself a favor and get a mp3 player which you can plug right into the aux plug on the front of the radio. my cd kept skipping so i don't use it anymore.
I work in IT & have a set of long needle nose pliers which work quite well for getting into tight spaces. Too bad HD/HK stereo doesn't have the little eject hole you can poke w/paperclip...good luck!

OK, I hate to admit how "tech stupid" I am,,,What youre saying is I can make my IPOD play thru my speakers???!!!
Some time ago there was a tech tip on the Hog Tunes site about stuck CDs that recommended going for a ride with powered on with the door opened.
I had the same thing happen. I pulled my Maxi Fuse for a few minutes, went for a bumpy ride with the cd door open, and it popped right out, never a problem since, but I do not play CD's very often, I plug my iPhone in for tunes.
