For 2023 the Road King Special's headline is Industrial Yellow — Harley's boldest paint option yet on a bike known for going the other direction. Underneath the color, it's the same FLHRXS the model has been since the 114 arrived in 2021: a nacelle headlamp, a pop-off windshield, and no fairing anywhere to hang a radio or a screen. That means the electronics side of a 2023 Road King Special starts from zero — no factory audio, no touchscreen, nothing built in. HogPlay's 7-inch CarPlay screen fills that gap the same way it always has: a self-contained unit with its own speakers running wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps at the bars.
No Factory Radio — Add Your Own Screen
The 2023 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.)

Industrial Yellow gives the 2023 Road King Special its most distinctive paint yet, but the bike underneath hasn't moved: Milwaukee-Eight 114 (1,868cc), a blacked-out nacelle headlamp instead of a fairing, and a windshield you can pull in seconds. Because there's no fairing, there's never been anywhere for Harley to mount a Boom! Box on this trim — the FLHRXS leaves the factory with no radio and no screen of any kind.
HogPlay fits it exactly like every other model year: an add-on 7-inch CarPlay screen with its own built-in speakers, delivering wireless Apple CarPlay, Android Auto and streaming apps without touching the factory wiring. Plug-and-play, fully reversible, no dealer visit.
The HogPlay Media Screen on the 2023 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 2023 Harley-Davidson Road King Special rides in.
Android Auto on the 2023 Harley-Davidson Road King Special: HogPlay makes the 2023 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.
