Touring radio
Can anyone tell me why it is that the Harmon Kardon radio is such a peice of crap? I had my FLHX in the dealer 2 months ago for issues with the radio and they keep telling me that they are on back order. What makes this pile of crap radio so great that this is the second time i have had to have it replaced? Anyone want to buy it when I get it so I can put a real radio in my bike?

well my first one went out at 10k miles or 6 months and the second went out at 50k miles or 2 years. When i went to the dealer they told me i had to wait in line behind 7 other people whose radios have went out. So you ask why i think its a piece of crap... How about 2.5 months without a radio. You would think for what we pay for our bikes that they would at least put in a radio with some shock resistance

So you can't blame H/K for any problems you have had.

So it is no telling who produced the radio you are complaining about.
