Factory codeFLHRCI
EngineTwin Cam 88
Factory head unitNo factory options — HogPlay Screen recommended
Factory USB locationNone

The 2003 Harley-Davidson FLHRCI Road King Sidecar is a rare factory-built variant of the Road King Classic, engineered from the frame up for three-wheel duty with revised geometry, a stabilized front end, and the fuel-injected Twin Cam 88 delivering smooth, carb-free power for the extra load of a sidecar rig. Built in Harley's 100th Anniversary year, it carries classic Road King touring lines but zero factory radio or navigation. The fix: bolt on the HogPlay Media Screen and bring modern connectivity to this rare rig.

No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen

The 2003 Harley-Davidson Road King Classic with Sidecar (FLHRCI) left the factory with no radio, stereo or touchscreen to bypass — so instead of a workaround, you add your own. A standalone HogPlay Media Screen is a 7-inch head unit with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, live Maps & Waze navigation, calls and streaming built in — we recommend the Screen 7 Pro with its onboard DVR drive-cam. Most riders settle for Bluetooth-only kits that leave the phone in your pocket with no turn-by-turn directions; this puts it all on the bars instead. It mounts to the handlebars with basic power and ground and comes off just as easily, so reach out to the HogPlay team if you'd like a hand. (Media Box support on Screens is in development.)

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2003 Harley-Davidson Road King Classic with Sidecar (FLHRCI) and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2003 Harley-Davidson Road King Classic with Sidecar (FLHRCI)

Few Road Kings left the factory set up for a sidecar, which makes this 2003 FLHRCI a genuine oddity in the touring lineup — a Twin Cam 88-powered Classic tuned for stability at the tiller instead of solo lean angles, riding on the leather-and-chrome touring look Harley leaned into for its centennial year. Factory instrumentation still stops at a speedo and idiot lights, with no provision for phone audio or turn-by-turn guidance.

The HogPlay Media Screen closes that gap without touching the wiring harness or dash. The 7-inch unit clamps to the handlebar, taps into switched power and ground, and mounts in either orientation — handy on a sidecar-equipped bike where cable routing and rider reach can be tighter than stock.
