    I got a question.
    I have a buddy with a Street Glide, It has no plugs for a headset to plug into.
    Is there a way to git bluetooth connected to his radio.
    Or is there a way to have plugs for a headset in the rear like the passenger would have without spending hundreds of dollars to do it.

    Street Glide doesn't have Blue tooth capabillitties on radio. He'll probably have to go to rear speakers(mount in saddle bags lids) $$$. Tell him to turn up the volume,save the dough. There is an Aux. input on the lower right of my radio for an Mp3 or I-pod but they will play throukh the spkrs.

    That's why the Streetglide cost less than the Ultra, less capabilities. The cost would be pretty high, new radio and a bunch of other stuff. Just crank it up and enjoy. There is a new Streetglide out with speakers in the side bags, really good sound.

    While I have learned he can't add heated grips and now I see his bike is stripped and trying to do things with the radio and other things with the bike.
    It push's me farther away from ever wanting one.
    The bike seems to be stripped similar to a Harley Police bike.

    He can add heated grips both Harley and after market ones. Put the after market ones on my Springer and they work great.

    We was going by what several HD dealers told him.
    They had none in their catalog to sell him.

    And he isn't gonna use the after market heated grips.

    Ever owned a bike with a pair of heated grips?
    I got my 1st and I been riding since 64.
    I don't care to wear eskimo gloves,
    Heated grips rocks,

    And he has first gear suit including gloves and feet.
    Its a pain in the As* to put em on and hook up up and have the cords and all.

    He wants heated grips.

    If you want to ride yer bike, when its warm outside why not just take the truck.:rant:

    He has a 32,000 motorcycle.

    Sheesh, the aftermarket ones by Heat Demons you keep your own grips. They have heat strips that fit inside the bars. Very easy to install and work great.
