The 2016 Harley-Davidson Road King Classic carries the touring line's oldest silhouette forward, pairing the fringed leather saddlebags and wire-wheel styling with a Twin Cam 103 big twin that had become standard across Road King trims by this model year. It's a bike built to look timeless while still moving like a modern tourer, but Harley never gave it a factory screen, GPS, or Apple CarPlay. The fix for this 2016 Road King Classic is the 7-inch HogPlay Media Screen, a bar-mounted upgrade that brings wireless CarPlay and Android Auto to a bike that predates all of it.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2016 Harley-Davidson Road King Classic 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.)

The Road King Classic has always played to nostalgia first, and the 2016 model does it with a bigger, torquier Twin Cam 103 under the tank rather than the smaller 88 or 96 that powered earlier Road Kings. That extra displacement suits long-haul touring, which is exactly where riders start missing modern navigation and hands-free calling most. HogPlay's screen mounts to the handlebars on this bike rather than replacing anything in the fairing, so the Road King's classic dash and analog gauges stay untouched.
Installation is a bar-clamp job: mount the unit, run power and ground to the battery or an accessory circuit, and the screen is live. It's fully reversible, so a 2016 Road King Classic can go back to stock at resale time with no cuts, no splices, and no trace left behind.
