Thanks Jim

Yes I have a SEUC 2011 and it came with the 660 that I upgraded to the 665. There is a cable from the harness but it is hooked up y the NIM  device so I think it is for the GPS when she gives me turn by turn directions. The only other similar connector (unused) is for a mic.

All you need to do is us a Y-harness on the audio out from the GPS.  One leg then goes to the NIM and the other to the AUX.  Have it on my bike and works fine.  

H-D part number is 6920023 for the Y-harness and 92389-08 for an audio cable from the harness to the AUX.  Can also get these type cables at most any electronics store - Radio Shack, etc.

Are you talking about this setup?

Yes...that should do it, along with the mod to the radio to have a AUX input on the back of the radio if you don't want a cable on the front AUX input.  But you will have to have the radio set to AUX for the MP3 or XM from the Roadtech to play.

[Gamma742]

Yep! That's what I want. No wires plugging into the side of the GPS or the front of the HK Radio.

Looks like I need to run to Radio Shack for the parts listed and an extra cable to cut off and solder to the AUX connector for the rear cable AUX mod.

Did anyone end up with a stereo cable with one black one red and one bare? I have all the luck!

We have seen that. Bare is ground, and the last one I remember the red was the left channel. Best to check with a VOM to be sure of the colors.

Thanks! Which is right/left on the plug so I can trace back?

It looks like red is usually the right.

If you do not have a a volt/ohm meter there is no way to identify which color wire is left or right output. The reason for this is because not all cable manufactures follow a standard wire coloring spec.

The bare wire will always be the common or ground. If you are not a music buff you would not know what sound is supposed to come out of which speaker anyway so it will not matter which color wire you use for the left channel and which for the right channel. Just pick you have a 50% chance of getting it correct.

Those links are correct. Tip is left, next section right, and third ground.

All I'll have to do tomorrow is solder those in and put it back in the bike!

Anyone doing this (if over 50) buy a nice magnifying glass!!

[brassspike]

Thanks for your help. I have it all done and it works fine. Pretty stressfull work for me!
If I did it again I would use the male end out of the back of the radio. That would plug directly inot the NIM. I had to use the patch cable and the left too much cable that was not needed.
665 still does not have enough volume for me. All settings are 100% but not sharp enough for me at speed. Sounds great in the driveway.

Felt the same way, installed a boostaroo and all is good. Actually had to lower percentage out on 660,

I got to get the bike out to ride again today 70 degrees here
The volume thing was solved by two things. !st was a garmin update last night.
I rode against the directions so that I could play with the volume some. It was much better after the update. I did find that you can adjust the directions (Miss Jill) separate on the head unit. This is separate from music volume.Try pushing your volume control (on the bars) up WHILE she is giving directions. This will raise bluetooth and direction volume through the speakers. I missed getting that earlier. Jill will blast you off the bike if want her to!!
