2023 was an engine year for the CVO Road Glide: the FLTRXSE stepped up from the Milwaukee-Eight 117 to the bigger 121, shown off that year in finishes like Dark Platinum and Whiskey Neat Black over the shark-nose fairing. The radio held steady — still the 6.5-inch Boom! Box GTS touchscreen, still headset-locked for CarPlay. HogPlay's Boom-era bypass clears that lock from the inner-fairing USB-A port, and a Media Box or Piglet then adds wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps.

Headset Bypass Required

The factory Boom! Box GTS radio locks CarPlay behind a paired headset. A HogPlay headset bypass removes that so CarPlay and the USB port work without one — then a Media Box or Piglet adds wireless CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps.

We also stock universal parts that fit the 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide and most other motorcycles — standalone CarPlay screens and universal USB power.

About the 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide

2023 marked a genuine hardware jump for the CVO Road Glide — the Milwaukee-Eight 121 replaced the 117 under the shark-nose fairing, wrapped that year in finishes like Dark Platinum and Whiskey Neat Black. The infotainment side stayed familiar: a 6.5-inch Boom! Box GTS touchscreen fed by a USB-A port in the inner fairing.

Boom! Box GTS supports Apple CarPlay, but only once a Bluetooth headset pairs in. HogPlay's Boom-era bypass clears that requirement, so a Media Box or Piglet can add wireless CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps through the CVO's speakers — plug-and-play, no dealer, fully reversible.

⚠️ 2023.5 transition — check your system before ordering. Early-2023 CVO Road Glide units run the Boom! Box GTS described above and take the GTS CarPlay Unlock bypass. The mid-year 2023.5 build (many are titled as a 2024) switched to the newer Skyline system with an under-seat connector — those use the under-seat bypass instead. Not sure which you have? Check the dash and the connector under your seat — both bypasses are listed above so you can match your bike.

Android Auto on the 2023 Harley-Davidson CVO Road Glide needs CarPlay enabled first: a headset HogPlay bypass unlocks the factory Harley-Davidson Boom!
