The 2018 Harley-Davidson Superlow 1200T is the approachable end of the Sportster line — a low, easy-reaching seat, a taller windscreen, and passenger comfort touches bolted onto the stripped-down Sportster formula, all driven by the air-cooled Evolution 1200 (1,202cc). It's built for riders who want cruiser confidence without cruiser bulk, but like every Sportster, it left the factory with bare bars and zero infotainment — no screen, no navigation, no way to run CarPlay. That's where the HogPlay Media Screen comes in.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2018 Harley-Davidson Superlow 1200t 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.)

Harley aimed the Superlow 1200T at riders who wanted the Sportster's low, planted stance and manageable reach-to-ground without giving up two-up comfort — hence the taller windscreen and passenger backrest that set it apart from a standard Superlow. The Evolution 1200 underneath delivers the torquey, air-cooled pull the Sportster family is known for, but the cockpit itself stays minimal: analog gauge, ignition, nothing else.
Mounting the HogPlay Media Screen doesn't touch any of that factory simplicity. The 7-inch display clamps onto the existing bars, taps into a power and ground wire for juice, and pairs wirelessly with your phone for Apple CarPlay or Android Auto — turn-by-turn, calls, and music through its built-in speaker. Since it's a bar-mount add-on rather than a fairing cutout, the install is fully reversible if you ever want the bike back to bone-stock.
