Im in Broward. Right across the alley. I can ride there this weekend. Let's talk turkey! How long? How much? What's the procedure?

It would be great if you'd go back there and have the option checked and see if it's actually wireless (no phone connected to wires). I highly doubt it is as there's only like 1-2 auto manufacturers that even have it and 1 aftermarket radio brand that does last time I looked.

Or you could take your bike in and have them do it. Or ask one of the techs at your local HD shop to look into it for you. I don't care about wireless CarPlay, that's why I didn't have him turn it on when he asked. Hell it may not work, all I can tell you is I saw the check box and the tech doing the updates to my radio asked if I wanted it. And there was nothing for mic less CarPlay.

Ok,
I'd like to see if anyone has info for us non iOS people of the world. I hear there may be a stand alone Android Car Play option out there. If we can find something like that on a USB or similar could it possibly be installed? Anyone know of someone working on something like that?

I could do it but I didn't have a bike with a GTS radio then. But instead of you lying to everybody on here, you could just say you effed up and didn't know what your talking about...just saying LMFAO.

I wish there was as well, but I haven't seen anything.

If you want to find out if I'm lying about something so stupid go ask you your self....just saying. And I told you before I don't know if it works just that it was a selectable tab in the Digitech. You seem pretty worried about it so go ask. If you got any more issues with it PM me.

As much as I enjoy a good argument, Opinions belong to us. If you don't like it said to you please don't say it in public to someone else. I enjoy this web site because there is no drama. We all enjoy riding lets remember that.

Went to the dealer (actually 2 dealers) for other things yesterday. Talked with the tech, pulled up a bike with their computer, there is no wireless CarPlay period. (and I really wish there was). There is a setting to turn on the wireless interface module (WHIM).

There is no opinions. Just true/false here. It's a fact - No wireless. No need to be muddling up a thread with completely incorrect info for people.(Regardless of saying, well that's what the tech said/showed.)
