Damn!  It must cost a lot extra to build a radio that can play on the other side of the road .

I see what you did there. Lol

What is WHIM?

What is WHIM?

Wireless Headset Interface Module

Wireless Headset Interface Module

thank you. Is this necessary?

[Glenncarp]

In the every other vehicle world ...No. in the forever complicated and restrictive HD world...of course. $40K on a pleasure vehicle you need a module. On a $18K Hyundai, nope

[Enigmatic]

thank you. Is this necessary?

to get apple car play to work, from what i understand.

I spoke to people at Soundz, I was told that you can flash for the WHIM module; but you don’t need to install a WHIM module to make it work. I hope that makes sense.

If you have any questions, call Soundz, Pete may just be there, If ot, his stall is almost as knowledgeable as he is. I am almost considering buying his EQ module. $500 is steep, but it would be nice to adjust sound coming out of HD amps

thank you. Is this necessary?

Yes if you want to talk on the phone, or give voice commands to GPS.

That said, it is Standard equipment on then 18 and 19 CVO Touring bikes.

2/27 - Had radio flashed by my dealer and everything seems to work except CB. It is grayed out in the menu. There is a bug with the system such that the radio displays the message "! This radio is not compatible with this vehicle. Please contact your Harley-Davidson dealership". Message goes away by turning off the radio for a minute and turning it back on. Soundz is aware and working on a fix. So far, I'm delighted. This new radio is incredibly better than that old piece of crap that I have dealt with for five and a half years.

Is Pete working on a fix for the CB issue as well?  I need that CB to work too! 

[1hd1az]

Yes. They are aware and expect a fix soon. Not a huge problem as it only happens occasionally. Installation went quite well and EVERYTHING is working. I'm impressed.

You don't have to use WHIM if you have a wired headset. Apple Car Play will not work without one or the other.

Your dealer doesn't want to sell parts very bad.  Or the parts counter is too lazy to actually look it up and, instead, they're just saying something that makes it easy for them.  You can find it (and order) at the Harley website if your dealer really doesn't want to take your money.  Part number 76000834 for almost $1900 (gulp).

For those that really want it, New Castle Harley has it for $1609..still big $$$

I'm looking at a 2015 CVO RGU and am wondering if this is something I should ask the dealer to do before I buy the bike? Since I have no experiance with the GT or GTS I'm curious if it would be something to have added to the bike?
