Yes it is. The GTS does not support the Bluetooth profiles for Headsets (HSP), and probably a few others needed to use a wireless headset, like the Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP). The GTS only supports Bluetooth pairing to a phone (and maybe a GPS - unknown).

One of the last thing you said regarding devices that supply stereo sound when connected to the WHIMS was :
“That's not according to the 2018 P&A book - the H-D branded SPH10, 20S & 20S EVO, and the new "Audio Expand" headsets will”
That’s inaccurate, and I just want to make sure folks know before investing money in the WHIMS.

I hit up the OEM Harley Davidson site on Sena for the latest documentation and device manager software. Seems to be available sooner on their site.

They now have the user guide for the Boom Audio 30K. So guess it will be available soon-ish.

I use SENA Freewire, 20S and get full operation of all boom functions...The freewire is in lieu of the WHIM....No dealer flashing required for the Freewire option...Several videos on youtube from law abiding biker on the SENA Freewire and the WHIM...I recommend you look at the videos before making purchases.

I attended an H-D workshop conducted by a Sena dealer. He confirmed that the Branded 20S is the ONLY device that when interfaced with the WHIMS will give stereo sound. He had for lecture and display all up to date Sena devices and said emphatically that they will all pair with the WHIMS, but will NOT do stereo. That was a clear marketing strategy by Sena that HD went along with. That’s the only source (other than general knowledge I have picked up along the way) that I have.
I have my phone paired to the bike and my 10S to the WHIMS. You are right....I don’t have Siri, but I do have map directions. If I connect to CarPlay, I have audio map directions from Google Maps and Apple Maps. May even have Siri on CarPlay.

Let me get this straight - You're saying that the Harley SPH10, and the Harley 20S, and the Harley "Audio Expand" headsets won't give you stereo when connected to the Harley WHiM? Even though Harley's P&A books say they will? Where's your source of this revelation?
