Hi all, I am contemplating buying a 14 RT-S. I have a Stratus Sirius radio that I transfer between my truck & my 08 Goldwing. I have an addl. cradle & antenna. Has anyone integrated this radio into the factory RT audio system? I would like to do this & listen both thru the bike speakers & the helmet headset. I know BRP sells a sat. radio, but I'm trying to avoid the cost & addl. subscrption. Thanks, MarcusB

I've got the Onyx... :thumbup:
It gets it's power from the port in the top trunk.
The antenna sits on a velcro pad up on the shelf around the outside edge... (But hidden under the lid!
If you have BRP's MP-3 cord; you've got all that you need to complete the deal.
You do have to manually change channels... But for about a $450 dollar savings... :2thumbs:

What about $36 a year gets you the app for your phone added on to your current subscription?

My cellular phone (When it's turned on...)
only rings!
If I happen to answer it in time; I talk to the unlucky person, who made the mistake of calling me! :D
No internet
No texts
No GPS
No messages
No games



No fooling! :D

The Sirius/XM app on an IPhone uses a TON of data, big reason I don't have it.

Don't know about Bob but it's the one I've got, only $27.70 a month. I might be cheap but I only wanted a phone, not a high tech gadget.
