On my phone at least, when it's connected there is a separate volume level for Bluetooth. Also, I've found the volume level depends on the audio source; some mp3s are louder than others. Maybe try playing something on youtube or Pandora to see if the level is different.

So no one is having this problem !!! just Me

is the volume ok when you plug your phone into the usb or is it just when connected via bluetooth?

I mentioned this to a techie friend that is into Apple.

He said that this has been an issue with the iPhone

suggested that
-make sure you have the latest OS update
-do not have any other apps running in the background (Facebook could be an issue)

if still having problem time to talk to Apple

I guess that the good news about the bad news is that it is not a Harley issue.

Thank you for the feed back !!!! I only tried with the blue tooth setup not with a cord attached I will try that and see if it makes a difference.

My buddy has a 15 CVO Street Glide, he found that if the Facebook App is active on his iPhone, the volume is cut by nearly 1/2.  Make sure Facebook is disabled and see if that helps.

With by 15 SERGU and my 14 Stingray, bluetooth music from my iPhone 6 is very muted if any other apps are running on the phone. 

I found it much easier to run my music via the usb, that way I do not have to turn apps on and off.  Plus is it keeps my phone charged.

Any updates on this issue? I think I'm having the same problem.

I've noticed a significant difference in not only loudness, but also quality when using iPhone thru Bluetooth. I much prefer using USB cord for a couple reasons: sound quality is way better, it charges my phone, the screen album on the display. However, I've just recently noticed two issues that seem to have begun. One is that I cannot forward or replay a song, only volume control. Second, every single time I shut the bike off and restart it, I have to reset the volume speed control setting.
 I actually stumbled across this feature one day, when I felt like I just wasn't getting the same quality sound at speed, and when I went to the volume speed setting, lowered it a notch from the "4" settings, then put it back up to the 4th bar, the amps really kicked in when I started moving again!! The sound is incredible, but as I said, once I stop and chit off the bike, I have to go through the process again. Not a big deal, more of a pain. The ability to skip songs or repeat, now that's a problem!! Any ideas???

So it's Normal.

Okay, update to my one problem with scrolling through songs on my iPhone. Discovered that it was because on my bike's setup, I had the presets selected instead of scan!! All is good on planet Mad Max now!!!

    Like everything on a Harley that doesn't work right or that the stealer can't figure out.

I have the same low volume issue with my android Phone. Any ideas to get volume louder when streaming music from Pandora? I don't have music loaded on my phone so usb won't help.
Thanks

Do you have the volume on the phone the whole way up for the music?
