Default 2008 Street Glide Stereo

I picked up a 08 Street Glide but didn't get a manual and am not sure if the stereo volume adjusts for wind noise? Mine doesn't seem to and I thought I had heard that they did? Does anyone know if it is a setting or had I just been misinformed?

Hey b4brook,

My 08 does.

It will be the last setting when you push your left( volume control) in vs up and down.. "AVC" It will also set your bass,treb, etc.

It adjusts based on speed and the AVC setting on the radio.
99466-08 is the part number for your owners manual. Or you can setup a online profile on the HD website and veiw a online manual.

It has an AVC (automatic volume control) setting that turns the volume up or down in relation to speed. 3 bars is the highest setting and will turn it down considerably when you stop.

Adjusting AVC
See L in Figure 4. Automatic Volume Control (AVC) automatically
adjusts volume level to compensate for ambient noise
associated with motorcycle speed.
If the AVC does not adequately compensate for ambient noise
(or if it over compensates), enter the audio setup menu and
select AVC. Compensation is adjusted with the AUDIO switch
on the left hand grip. Using left thumb, press the AUDIO switch
up (+) to raise the compensation level or down (-) to lower the
compensation.
NOTE
Although the receiver AVC is preset at 3 bars, it is adjustable
from 0 bars (OFF) to 4 bars. At 1 bar, the volume does not
change with motorcycle speed. The more bars displayed, the
higher the volume increases with speed.

Was gonna say my 01 EGC does, so unless life changed and 08 should also. I may be wrong.

Although I thought I was wrong once before, but I was wrong.
