Biketronics sells a kit to replace the older unit...
But you may want to look into the Sony units, they offer all the expensive ad on's HK has ..
Bluetooth, XM Ready, even a NAV system...


Here's a link for the handlebar controls add on ... it's about 50.00

It should be a plug and play swap, but call Radio Sound, HD's vendor of these radios to confirm:&nbsp\\; (502) 267-6768.

HK Radio's are VIN sensitive.. They'll work, just have to get the dealer to re-program the ECM..
This is a security feature..

I changed mine using the biketronics kit, a Sony stereo and XM. It works great. You may want to get the cover that biketronics offers now for the RG. I hit mine with the spray wand at the carwash and had to replace one of the stereos....
