Description
Soundstream Reserve HDHU.9813RG
The HDHU.9813RG is a direct-fit 7-inch multimedia head unit for 1998–2013 Harley-Davidson Road Glide and Road Glide Ultra motorcycles. It adds Apple CarPlay, Android Auto, Bluetooth, SiriusXM-ready operation, USB playback, and aftermarket-amplifier outputs while keeping the factory-style Road Glide installation.
What It Retains and Why the Fitment Matters
- Pre-wired plug-and-play radio harness
- Factory mounting bolts and hardware — no separate trim kit required
- OEM antenna connection
- Supported factory handlebar controls
- USB charging and media playback through the supplied connection
The vehicle-specific chassis means the customer is not paying for a generic radio plus a stack of separate cosmetic adapters just to make it fit the Road Glide fairing.
Important Factory-Amplifier Limitation
The HDHU.9813RG will not activate OEM Boom! amplifiers. On a factory-amplified bike, the amplifier path has to be changed as part of the system plan. That can mean replacing/bypassing the factory amplifier and rewiring the speaker signal path rather than treating the radio as a complete factory-amplifier retention solution.
Audio and System Features
- 7-inch high-definition capacitive touchscreen with adjustable RGB key illumination
- IPX5-rated weather-resistant faceplate and glass
- 4-volt front, rear, and subwoofer RCA preamp outputs
- Built-in 4-channel amplifier, manufacturer rated at 50 watts per channel and 2-ohm stable
- Built-in equalizer and audio adjustment
- RCA camera input with 12-volt trigger
- USB MP3, WMA, AAC, and FLAC playback
For a non-Boom-amplified Road Glide this is a straightforward factory-fit radio upgrade. If the motorcycle has a factory Boom amplified system, plan the amplifier conversion at the same time so the complete audio path is correct.
