I have a sirius xm edge player in my personnel truck pop it off and use it in my work truck. I'm thinking of installing it on my 2014 Flhtk. Maybe mounting it on a ram mount? Antenna were to put it? Just tune to a channel and let it play and hope for no rain? Anyone install one on their bike?

I double checked the tag and it had ABS listed and that's when the sales person pointed out that it was an available option. That's just stupid in my opinion. Why have it on the tag at all if it's not on the bike?
A buddy picked up a 13 RG on Friday and asked me to come help him out with the deal. We get him down to a price he could deal with and while they are doing the paperwork, I'm walking around it checking out his new ride. I'm like "hmm something is missing." I go back and look at the tag and then back at the bike. They had done the same thing. Bike had security and ABS, but no cruise! Who buys these tour bikes without cruise? I was like WTF?!?! I mention it to the sales manager and he gives him a store credit to cover the cruise control and install, but damn WTF! I'm thinking the same thing you are. Why do they try to make it confusing for you to figure out what's what. Just list what's ON the bike and the price please. Bright side, we did have a great ride Saturday and Sunday though.

The Bluetooth phone stuff requires another module ($400 I think it is to plus install) unless you get the big touring bikes then maybe its included but on the Streetglide its not, you have to get the module plus the connection part and take off the trim part below the gas cap.

Pretty frustrating but im hoping they come out with a Bluetooth headset and it all fixed but who know's................ any thots or disagree let me know. I as the Harley dealers aren't really 100% sure of it all. Ride safe, paul

It's complete bull$hit. It pairs with the phone, pairs with the helmets, but doesn't communicate at all. I paid the extra money for the street glide s for Nav and bluetooth and you need a $400 plus labor HARD WIRE to make anything work. Whats the friggin point of having bluetooth???? Could go from the phone to the helmet or whatever and save $3000 over a regular SG.

I'm pissed to say the least.

Plus the clutch recall. On top of all this. Don't ride your brand new bike until we get en ough parts out to dealers to fix them. I knew something was wrong with it the day I picked it up. Had plenty of hyd clutch bikes this thing felt like crap. Pretty disillusioned with HD right now. Thats beside the OVER MSRP crap HD lets dealers pull. I didn't pay that, but plenty around here do.

I have a love hate relationship with Harley for most of the above reasons. The dealers tend to be shady imo.
