Thanks to all. System sounds incredible! For all who wonder, you can't go wrong with the help of these great riders. Kenwood KDC-X998, Kappa 62.11i, RZ4-2000D, Polk MM691 with Biketronics Bt1005x. The sound is amazing!
Boss, Ive only been able to ride with it a few days but so far Im very happy. It has over 20 colors to choose from, I chose the orange like the gauges and I can see it just fine most of the time. In bright sunlight its a little tougher but not impossible. I usually set up my music b4 I go so I really don't even look at it anyway. I is highly customizable and I have no regrets. You set it up to play selected folders or random and switch with the handlebar controls with all my songs on a usb. The Pandora Bluetooth works very well. Id say go for it
I'm running the same HU and I haven't had any complaints with its functionality and ease of connecting to BT. I have playlists on my phone and I leave it alone...
I have the BT858 and no complaints. One thing that helps is playing with the Nega/Posi settings in the display area. There have been a few times where the sun was in a perfect spot and very tough to see, but other than that it's not bad. Like others said, I know where I'm at from the hand controls and it's not a big deal if the screen washes out every now and then. Add to that I'm in upstate NY and the sun only comes out 2 or 3 times a month lately anyways.
