On the way to work this morning I had a few things happen.
1. The volume would not work at all until I turned off and back on the bike at a stop light.
2. Riding along just fine enjoying my iphone streaming tunes and bike switches to WB5 radio on it's own.
3. Turn on the nav map only to see north is facing 3 o'clock not noon.
4. Close to work my iphone stopped streaming tunes and the display read playback stopped when the phone showed playing.
This is the buggiest radio head unit I've ever seen on any vehicle period... Even with that,however, I freaking LOVE the 2014's.

Dont these guys read the manual? Or is it just easier to come here and throw out a problem and have somebody who did read the manual answer it?
(sorry, venting. Thanks for reading.....)

My NAV is set to 2d and N Up, so that is why I'm concerned that N is at 3:00 not UP or Noon.

Well then maybe you have one of those "'14 gremlins." There was one guy that said his dealer was just gonna swap out his radio cuz it had a problem and that his dealer already had 3 others that he was swapping out. I think he was in KY. hopefully your close and you can go to that dealer and get a new radio. Otherwise hopefully it is something that can be addressed in an update. Other than that I guess I got nothing else for you.
