Pretty happy that I bought a 18 the only thing I like on the new one is the infotainment system and I’m wondering how hard it would be to buy the new one and install in the 18 rg

Boom! Box GTS Radio Kit
Part Number 76000834

$1899.95

Fits '19-later Road Glide models with a 4.3 Boom! Box Radio.

At this moment it doesn't appear to fit the previous year bikes. Give that time....

Looks like it will fit.

Must be me, but other than the 2012 Skunk the only other paint set I have really liked was the Electric Orange & Black that’s on my 09 FLTRSE3. God knows I have tried to like other paint sets.

Looks like it would fit right in the size of the deck hole looks the same. I think it’s probably just them trying to force people to buy new bikes. I’m really not a fan of that lower plastic piece on the new road glide imo some people may like it tho.

I am really digging the Mako Shark Fade CVO RG, it looks beautiful!!! (care less about the other two color schemes)  and I’m digging the “new fang front spoiler"...reminds me of the FXRT



look at minute mark 1:50.

I like the Faring extensions, or sideburns as one called them.  I think they look good.  My questions is do they help with wind management?  I like the Mako fade or the gray and red.

HD claims the new boom will not fit older bikes.  Not sure thats true yet.  We would have to find out if wiring harness has changed.  I'm sure inner fairing did not change.

Quite a contrast between the video and the pictures on the website.  I bet they look great in person.

luvin my 09!!

There is a post or two discussing that on another of our threads.  Per those conversations, that "upgrade" is only available, currently, on 2019 models.  The speculation is at some point it may be available on earlier models including your '18.

I will look for that thread. Since I am not using the factory harness for much more than a power wire this is something I may be able to make work.

Sideburns...I like the nickname!

It was just the 41st anniversary of the King's passing....maybe a tribute?

Also had the thought about wind management would be cool if it did help. I don’t know if it will affect people that want to add lowers tho. I guess time will tell. Apparently some dealers already have bikes I seen on another forum so might not take long to see what’s good about them.

Like the blue shark color & snork breather...not warming to the fairing to chin piece. The other two colors are very meh IMO.

[skratch]

in doing a cursory look at the wiring diagram between the 2018 and 2019, they look the same, so not sure why the new radio would't fit the older bikes....  if there is a reason, would like to know, even though i have a 2013 and no immediate plans to 'upgrade'....

[skratch]

and the 2019....

[Threephase]

I wonder if the issue is how it communicates withe can bus system?

[King Glide]

I’m betting they say it won’t work because it would have to be flashed for the new one. The wiring looks the same and there’s no way they are going to re-work the inner fairing molds or build new molds because the two units appear to be the same size,it’s not cost effective.
