Ditch the HD radio and go aftermarket, get the Hawg wired install kit and controls and you can still use the handlebar controls on your bike.

What Kenwood do you have? 4000 songs... Are you talking 4000 songs on a flashdrive you use in the usb port or does the radeo have storage? By the way your SG is looking good.

KDC-X493 And yes I use a USB flash that plugs into the front of the radio. Not all the radios I looked at had a port. Sometimes the CD would skip when I hit a bump so I just put all my CD's on a flash drive. I don't have to carry CD's now and it never skips. The Kenwood is a little complicated but it's much better sounding than stock. Thanks for the compliment on the bike.
