IPhone 5S, synced, phone book etc. etc., all text message settings on but no syncing or getting new messages, probably a good thing. don't need any pings and distractions.

I called customer service for HD and was told that it is a known issue with iPhone and it was not going to work at this time...

Dear Mr. Currin:

In response to your inquiry regarding your texting issue with your Iphone 5, there is an issue with the latest Apple update regarding texting.

I would encourage you visit www.Harley-Davidson.com for any updates regarding your Boom 6.5 system as well as with you dealer.

I want to thank you for contacting Harley-Davidson and giving us the opportunity to be of service. I hope the information I have provided will be of help to you.


Sincerely,
Customer Support
