So I’ve received and installed my unit. Install was fairly simple and everything arrived packaged up nicely and the harness / dash kit was done very nicely by FHC making everything extremely easy to install. It sounds GREAT. I can BLAST my stock Road Glide speakers with no distortion. I’ll eventually be upgrading speakers but haven’t decided on a pair yet (not paying $319 for Rockford Fosgate). A few things I’ll note - - The steering wheel control module is pretty limited from what I’ve seen. Yes it works, but it only gives you basic volume up / change song / ATT / input switching. You can’t really manually navigate around any of the onscreen features with it. I think it will still get the job done though. I haven’t found a way you can navigate the maps at all using the handlebar controls.. - Simply installing the radio in the kit into my stock Road Glide slot left the radio sitting slightly at an odd angle that didn’t exactly match up to the slot, and the buttons wanted to fall below the dash opening. I rectified this by using 2 washers below each of the 4 mounting holes which raised the radio a little less than 1/4 inch and that worked perfectly. - The anti-glare screen may work inside of a vehicle, but for a bike, you still can’t see a damn thing in direct sunlight Although the head unit sounds really good, the features and capabilities of the head unit are somewhat limited. Not having features like wireless Apple car play on a brand new ‘premium ‘ head unit are a bit disappointing. Do I think it’s worth the price? I honestly feel like $500 for this kit would be a more suitable price. No fault of FatHead cycles, they are just taking the existing radio price and tracking on about $98 for the kit and harness, which is fair. But the price from Sony is a bit higher than I think it’s really worth. If you have the extra cash to just piss away though, it’s certainly a cool upgrade with monsterous sound. I might buy one for my Jeep. FatHead can you pre-configure me a kit for my ‘15 Jeep Wrangler?? :P

Just installed this unit on my pop's bike. Its does not have a GPS, navigation and most other functions must come from your phone. Break your phone and your left with Glorified FM radio. Also it is touch screen but has a row of buttons across the bottom. While trying to set it up I would have to use these hard to read buttons because no one screen buttons would bring me out of the page I was on. Not water proof as you can see from other videos and much less functionality than many other 100-250$ units.

The can bus and obd2 system are one in the same, just the obd2 is used to access the can-bus system. Harleys, and other bikes are probably not regulated by the govt to have a standardized communication system. So each bike manufacturer can do what they want. Tuners have access to the ECU and perhaps through that port, there may be a way to access and then convert the data via the maestro so the head unit, if applicable, could show credible data.
