The 2011 Road Glide Ultra paired the shark-nose fairing with full touring comforts - locking saddlebags, a tour-pack, and cruise control for long-haul rides. Its Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio system delivered strong sound for the era, but it has no touchscreen and no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto. HogPlay's aftermarket CarPlay radios drop into that fairing opening and add wireless CarPlay and Android Auto the factory head unit never offered.
No Factory CarPlay — Add It Your Way
The 2011 Harley-Davidson 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.

The 2011 Road Glide Ultra carries Harley's shark-nose fairing along with the full Ultra touring package - hard saddlebags, a tour-pack trunk, and a Harman/Kardon Advanced Audio system built into the fairing. For 2011 that stereo was a genuinely good setup for its time, with real speakers and a head unit sized for the dash - but it predates touchscreens, phone mirroring, and any factory CarPlay or Android Auto.
Riders adding miles to a 2011 Road Glide Ultra want the same things every long-distance rider wants now: spoken turn-by-turn directions, easy access to music and playlists, and hands-free calls and texts without pulling over. None of that lives in the stock Harman/Kardon unit, which is why an aftermarket motorcycle radio built for this fairing - brands like SoundStream and Rockford Fosgate both make head units sized for the Road Glide dash - is the direct route to wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto on this bike.
Once that new radio is in place, a HogPlay Media Box plugs into it to add Android Auto plus Netflix, YouTube, YouTube Music, and podcasts, played straight off an SD card or USB drive with no phone data used. Prefer to keep the stock radio? A HogPlay USB Piglet adds Android Auto and Mirror Link or AirPlay screen mirroring, and a bar-mounted Media Screen is a no-radio-swap alternative for riders who'd rather leave the fairing stock.
