The 2018 Harley-Davidson Superlow earns its name honestly — a 25.5-inch seat height, narrow build, and mid-mounted controls make this the easiest-reaching Sportster in the lineup, built for riders who want confidence at every stoplight. Under that low-slung stance sits the air-cooled Evolution 883, a torquey, no-nonsense V-twin that defines the entry-level cruiser experience. What the Superlow doesn't have is a dash, screen, or speaker of any kind — Harley left the bars bare. The HogPlay Media Screen fixes that with a 7-inch bar-mounted display built for exactly this kind of stripped-down bike.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2018 Harley-Davidson Superlow 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.)

Low, light, and easy to throw a leg over, the Superlow was built to get new riders comfortable fast, and the 883cc Evolution engine gives it enough low-end grunt to feel lively without being intimidating. It's a bike stripped to essentials — no fairing, no dash pod, nowhere factory to mount audio or navigation. That blank bar is exactly where the HogPlay Media Screen goes to work.
The 7-inch screen clamps onto the Superlow's bars, wires straight to power and ground with no dash cutting or wiring-harness splicing required, and pairs wirelessly with Apple CarPlay or Android Auto through its built-in speaker. Because the mount is reversible, installing it doesn't touch the bike's stock look or resale value — pull it off and the Superlow is back to bone stock in minutes.
