Yes, You have to play it via bluetooth. Which means you can not plug it into the port in the dash. If you need to plug it in do so in the tour pak. It will stream with no problem.

I don't have an iphone but on my android I've just connected them via Bluetooth. On the Harley radio go to the home screen -> set up -> scroll down to blue tooth set up, list paired devices. Then you click add new device making sure iphone is discoverable. Once paired fire up Pandora on phone and on the Harley home screen you will now see media, click on that and you should see your phone.

Isn't Pandora Internet based and therefore impossible to get a good signal in a moving vehicle?

depends on where you're at. you can get and keep a good signal for a long time in some areas, while in others (like mine) you will lose signal in one spot about 2 miles long, that is about 15 miles from here.

i wouldn't suggest doing it though unless you have an unlimited data plan. it can get right expensive, right quick.....

So, if you can get a continuous signal it would have to be via 4G, not WiFi, so the point about data plan is a good one. I'm using Sirius and have made a good deal for now. Best bet may be to record your favorite stuff onto phone or iPod or even a chip and stop paying fees to anyone. I think the satellite stuff will go away for that very reason.

I play Pandora with my 14 both Bluetooth and with line in .
It works pretty good but I have sprint as a provider . So I never really have 4G most of the time not even 3g .
What I have noticed is with the Bluetooth I do have some delay .

Pandora will stream in "1G" even. There are places where it cuts out, but it is less often then the drops I used to get with XM. Pandora will also go to "low quailty" mode if the signal bandwidth isn't high enough. I have been using it for a couple of years on both my bike and with 4 wheels.
