I don't care for using the stereo on the bike/tryke - I don't feel the need to make everyone in the area listen to my music.
Cardo Freecom 2 helmet unit and my phone with MP3s or Pandora works for me.

I find the 'noise' of a radio distracting while riding. I already have 47 things to keep track of and the noise coming at me from the dash is just too much. I had a great Alpine system on my last HD and the only time I ever turned it on was when I was parked somewhere. I'd rather have a builtin dashboard setup with GPS, Drivetrain status, Trip information - all of that functional stuff - skip the noiz. I have a phone, bluetooth helmet, bluetooth hearing aids,etc, if I get a phone call or text (which I will find a spot to pull off and respond to). I'd consider XM since I do listen to patriot news and a few other select news/talk stations, but don't know how to add satellite radio to the bike. I just got it in my truck and love it. I'm going to call them today and ask about having it set on my phone as well - problem solved.

All you have to do is add streaming to your XM subscription (if it's not already included) and you can stream from your cell, pc, laptop, tablet, etc. I have an XM on my 2014 RTL and stream it to my cell and other devices so I have it in my car through my phone.

Good work around as long as you are in range of cell signal, which depends on the provider and geography, and you have a data plan to cover it all.
