Biz,

I took the bike out today and gave the new 595 set up a 300 mile work out.

Well to my surprise the Infotainment "bleep" started to work and continued throughout the ride, really clear really sharp.

I dont know if the system needed a couple of boot up's or what but we now have a proper working HD compatible system !

That's interesting! Now if I can just find a reasonably priced HD 590 for sale somewhere.... :D

I was under the impression that the beep couldn't be heard, so I'm surprised. Would be interesting if you could try the thing actually on a touring HD model to see if it mutes the radio etc to give you the instruction..... Whereabouts in the country are you, as a matter of interest, Les?

Biz,

I use it on a 2010 Ultra but I prefer a BT set up as opposed to the HD set up.

However I have just found the bag containing all my headsets and leads so if I get a chance I'll wire it up and give it a try.

Will give you a shout when I get it tried out.
