The 2021 Sportster S introduced Harley's Revolution Max 1250 to a stripped-down muscle roadster, all attitude and bare handlebars with zero screen or stereo from the factory. Harley never wired in a display for this bike, so riders were left staring at an analog gauge and nothing else. HogPlay's bar-mounted 7-inch Media Screen fills that gap, bolting straight to the bars to deliver wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster S 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 2021 Sportster S launched as Harley's answer to a modern muscle roadster: a Revolution Max 1250 V-twin, minimal bodywork, and a cockpit built around a single round gauge rather than a stereo or display. That stripped-back approach is part of the bike's appeal, but it also means the rider is on their own for navigation, calls, and music - there's simply no factory outlet for any of it.
That's exactly where wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto earn their keep on a bike like this. Turn-by-turn directions, hands-free calls, and a music library all become available at a glance, without ever pulling out a phone at a stoplight.
HogPlay's bar-mounted Media Screen is built for exactly this situation - a self-contained 7-inch display that bolts to the handlebars and needs only power and ground to bring wireless CarPlay and Android Auto to a Sportster S that never had a screen to begin with. It also carries Bluetooth audio in and out, so it can push sound to a portable Bluetooth speaker or feed into an existing amp and speaker setup already on the bike.
The HogPlay Media Screen on the 2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster S 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 2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster S rides in.
Android Auto on the 2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster S: HogPlay makes the 2021 Harley-Davidson Sportster S 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.
