The 2011 CVO Road Glide Ultra was Harley's top-shelf touring flagship that year, wrapped in exclusive CVO paint and running the frame-mounted, shark-nose fairing with a full Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio system onboard. It sounded excellent for its era, but the head unit is a screen-free AM/FM/CD setup with no CarPlay and no Android Auto. HogPlay pairs that same fairing with an aftermarket touchscreen radio that adds wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto right out of the box.

No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way

The 2011 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide Ultra shipped with the factory Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio — a solid unit in its day, but no Apple CarPlay, Android Auto or touchscreen. Fit an aftermarket CarPlay radio (SoundStream, Rockford Fosgate, Boss, Diamond Audio or Aquatic AV) for wireless Apple CarPlay — SoundStream, Boss and Diamond Audio include Android Auto natively, while Rockford Fosgate and Aquatic AV gain it once you add a HogPlay Media Box or Piglet, which also unleash Netflix, YouTube, streaming apps, Mirror Link and AirPlay. No headset bypass needed — that's a factory-radio thing, not aftermarket. Rather not swap the radio? A bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen adds wireless CarPlay and Android Auto too.

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2011 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide Ultra and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2011 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide Ultra

The 2011 CVO Road Glide Ultra paired Harley's Custom Vehicle Operations trim with the frame-mounted fairing that made this bike's handling and wind protection stand out from the rest of the touring lineup. The factory Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio system delivered real fidelity for a 2011 motorcycle, but it was built years before phone-mirroring was part of the conversation, so there's no CarPlay, no Android Auto, and no way to run turn-by-turn navigation or music apps from your phone through the bars.

Riders upgrading this fairing today are choosing an aftermarket CarPlay radio purpose-built for Road Glide dashes, from brands like SoundStream and Rockford Fosgate, most of which include wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto standard. From there, a HogPlay Media Box adds Android Auto plus streaming apps like Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcasts, playing straight off an SD card or USB drive with no phone data required.

If a full radio swap isn't in the plan yet, a HogPlay USB Piglet layers in Android Auto plus Mirror Link and AirPlay screen mirroring on compatible aftermarket units, and a bar-mounted HogPlay Media Screen gives riders who'd rather keep the stock radio a separate display for maps, media, and mirroring.
