Fairing Stylenacelle (headlamp nacelle + detachable windshield)

The 2019 Road King Special skips the fairing altogether — just a blacked-out headlamp nacelle and a quick-detach windshield up front, which means the FLHRXS never came with a factory radio or a screen to plug into. HogPlay solves that with a self-contained 7-inch screen mounted at the bars: its own built-in speakers carry wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and your streaming apps, so a bike that shipped with nothing at all gets full phone integration without cutting a single wire. Under the tank sits the Milwaukee-Eight 107, the touring engine Harley ran across the range before the 114 arrived two years later.

No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen

The 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special 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.)

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special

Introduced as the stripped-down cruiser of the touring lineup, the Road King Special (FLHRXS) pairs the classic King's blacked-out attitude with none of the fairing hardware its Street Glide and Road Glide siblings carry. No batwing, no shark-nose — just the nacelle headlamp and a windshield you can pull off in seconds. That also means no place for Harley to mount a Boom! Box, so the 2019 model left the factory with no radio and no screen whatsoever.

HogPlay's answer is the add-on 7-inch CarPlay screen: a self-contained unit with its own speakers that bolts on at the handlebars, bringing wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps to a bike that never had any of it. Power comes from the Milwaukee-Eight 107 (1,746cc), the engine every base touring model ran before the bump to the 114 in 2021. Plug-and-play, fully reversible, no dealer visit.

The HogPlay Media Screen on the 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special runs a dual-Bluetooth design — pair your phone for wireless Apple CarPlay or Android Auto on one channel while the other feeds an auxiliary amplifier, handlebar speakers or a portable Bluetooth speaker. A small built-in speaker handles turn-by-turn voice prompts and light audio on the move, and the fully sealed, waterproof housing is built rugged to stand up to the weather and the elements the 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special rides in.

Android Auto on the 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special: HogPlay makes the 2019 Harley-Davidson Road King Special run wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay — compare every Android Auto for Harley-Davidson & Indian motorcycles option, then confirm your exact fit with What Fits.
