Does anyone know of an adaptor that will let you control the ipod with the bike cd controls and plays the song info thru the HK RDS receiver.. You can buy ones for cars, like the Neo but no one seems to make it for the Harley HK.. It seems to me they would sell a ton of them as you could mount it someplace lockable and still get to it to update and have all the funtionality from the handlebars.

Thanks in advance.. If anyone from Harley scans these forums.. Please consider it.

Maybe just my opinion but I would not waste the money on the IPOD. I have one, and I find that it is to much of a hassle to put it on the bike and remove it so no one steals it. I use the I-Tunes software to create my own CD's and use the factory CD player. I have 116 songs on one CD, so I am good to go, and no need to add the IPOD to the bike.

HD Renegade,
GF and I are trying to figure out how you fit 116 songs on a single CD. We have iTunes and would love to burn CDs as opposed to playing with an iPod on the bike.

I will be looking into the New Portable Sirius Satellite receiver. It's called The Stiletto 100 and it lets you listen to live and recorded SIRIUS almost anywhere.

here is the link

Sirius

Go to "i-tunes"

Go to "preferences"

Go to "Advanced"

Go to right tab "Burning"

Under Disk Formate Check "MP3CD"

You will be able to record 100-180 songs.

The disk will play on your HD radio and the song title and track number will appear on the read out, it will play on any CD player with MP3.

Works great..........

I have an iPod also, but donm't use on bike. Too much hassle. Agree with Bob, burning CD's is easier.

Burnin mp3 format & can get about 140 on a CD. I usually 1 in player & 2 in saddle bags at all times. 420 tunes is a lot of music. They cost less than a buck each. If I get tired of one, make a new one!!

The way to go.[sm=icon_ladiesman.gif]

Does this Zen Nano not skip or shut off like the Ipod? I am looking into buying something, soon!
Don't have a way to burn CD's.
