FreeWheeler- IPhone
Now, at 70, I've been riding since 1966. This Free Wheeler is great for me, bad legs and other issues. Now this is just one old man's opinion so don't none of you get offended.
Leave the bike alone, Don!t be adding anything on it that resembles the older trikes, you know the King/ Queen seat/ the suitcase's, the fairings, the wind shield,the flaps, the Walkie Talkies, the big speakers with that hip hop stuff that you young 50 year olds listen to/ lol / only fooling/you know what I mean.
It wasn't built for that, it's sleek, especially with the fiberglass rear end and the just right little trunk.
A couple of jeans/ tank tops / the old lady's girlie things and that's it and some cash in your pocket and you be gone//. leave it be. BUT------ I've been seeing a lot of this loud music coming out of speakers and those handle bar speakers and every think else, but that's not how I roll/ Ya like that saying Ya all / lol / Now that's too loud for me, I still dig the Stones and all the other bands I grew up with, hell, there older than me. Anyway if you got a IPhone 6 or plus 6 the best motorcycle handle bar mount is the ROKFORM MOUNT- the best $175.00.
But it will not fit because the 6 plus is too big, you can do it but you do not have a good view. Anyway, like I said before, I like a clean look up front, so I found something that is great, safe and beautiful.
I have a Iphone6 plus with all my ITunes on it.
So, I checked around and found a company that had exactly what I wanted, it's called THE JABRA
STORM, $80.00 and that includes shipping, man do I take a long time explaining things lol.
The JABRA STORM is a earpiece ( mini ) monaural
one ear only, so that your other ear is open to everything around you. The JABRA has a rubber ear gel bud that fit into your ear canal so the sound is going straight in your ear, I put a little surgery tape on it tape it to my ear.

You really don't need to do that, I'm just one of those guys who double checks everything.

This is long/ now you pair the
JABRA with your IPhone, that takes 1,minute, honestly and put your IPhone in your FreeWheeler 's trunk / it's Bluetooth all the way. Just tap the phone twice to make a call that SIRI will do for you, or just say yes or no to accept a call and navigation after you type it in , SIRI will tell you when and where to turn and your phone is in your trunk and you have one ear that's open to hear who is coming up or besides you / A Super Super product/ thanks all folks.

Back to you fuzzy

How doing/ all that in ear Jabra ear piece stuff I wrote is garbage, it is no good. I wonder if you or one of the guys can just tell me how to route a amp wire and two other wires under my FreeWheeler gas tank. No body tells you this, you can't run them under, those two plastic guard rails under the FreeWheeler's gas tank seems cool, but nobody tells you the real way until you by the product. Driving me nuts. I know, the old clothes hanger with the wire wrapped around it and just wiggle it through the outsidebottom of the tank, but there has to be a neater way. The wire has to be protected from the heat etc. I'm missing something here / check that fat insulated wire from the headlight going down the neck of the tank and connecting to the battery/ I gotta get those wires down there' without taking the tank off, all these handle bar sound system guys know what I'm talking about, but it is still a tricky thing, so if you got a idea please let me know. I found a way to make the handle bar sound system completely
wireless, complete Bluetooth/ no plug in / some people know the part I'm talking about and some don't, I'm even surprised that Harley is still using wires attached to a smarth phone to operate a Boom Box or whatever they call it/ I'm just old school and used to the old way . Have a nice holiday Fuzzy
 
Dave,
We have the capability to answer/call out on our cell phone, but I choose to leave it in the hatbox! While I'm riding, I really could care less who calls me. MY focus is riding, whats ahead of me, how the trike sounds/performs and my surroundings. I look at it like this, when I'm stopped I can look at my phone to see who calls me and I can return the call......if I want to while I'm out!!!:D
 
Just like wimoonshiner said!! I ,too, have more important things to do while riding than listen to a silly phone call. But then we each have our own priorities!! Ride safe!!
 
You guys got it all wrong

Now, I'm really not talking about the damn phone.
Hell with the phone, this just explain' s what I am trying to achieve and the sound and ring of the phone is just a by product of a bluetooth sound wave of what I am working on.
You all heard of the DASH LINK it's a pretty cool idea, if you haven't check it out, I'm trying to work around what these guys created, that's all. But if your into phones , cool , but this is something way different, I'm coming from the land of race bikes ,
and everything motorcycle, you must've miss read the post or read the other one. NOW, example if you are riding from Florida back across to Arizona on I - 10 with your old lady on the back of your FreeWheeler, because that is the bike we are talking about./ RIGHT/ I want to hear some damn tunes after going across Texas, it gets a little numb after a while. The Dash Link is a console that replaces your dash, you know left / right account/ signal light etc. But the idea is cool, it's just a charger that you put you phone in and dig the maps and other things. It's just a DOCKER to hold your phone. But like I said in my post about ///wires//// The FreeWheeler is just that , if you start putting **** on it you might as well trade it in for a Tri Glide Trike, TV and all. The moral of this story is to put 3 inch round speakers ( 300 watt system ) on the handlebars/ connect your Amplifier to the middle structure bar that is on the FreeWheeler, which is really a road king touring frame/ Speaker wires just connect Down to the amp/ and the amp wire comes up to the headlight for a on/off switch/ spliced and then run the amp wire along with a MTX MUDBTRC
All-weather Bluetooth® receiver/remote control
which is ONE of the coolest thing for motorcycles
made $ 75.00 / check it out. The whole post is about getting rid of this underneath the gas tank wiring old fashion snaking through under the seat **** and modifing a DASH LINK to just a plug in under your console, cause the back of the DASH is already wired to connect to your battery,
So did any FreeWheeler owner snake a wire under ther gas tank / that's all the questions was about.
And the phone is in your vest pocket without any wires at all/ the old lady can play her games on it.
Harley flipped out on it when they taped my conversation with my permission / about their boom box or whatever you call it being totally wireless.
Very few people have land lines in there home today.

It's a wireless world.

I accomplished this through the use of the Bluetooth helmet coms, if you wear a helmet(no judgement either way ride your ride) this thing works well.

Not perfect sound, but good enough, GPS directions come through the speakers and I have had the wife on the phone(emergency call about my mom being rushed to the ER) she could hear me fine and I could hear her. Anyway this set up is for a half helmet http://www.jpcycles.com/product/210-833
 
I'm with all the "I don't use my cell while riding" gang. I'll go even further and say I hate cell phones, period. I did buy one a few years ago, a Trac-fone. $99 per year as an emergency only device. It stays in the trunk and really hasn't seen the light of day in years except for charging it. I'm one of only a handful of people that doesn't let a cell phone run their lives.
 
Back to you SENA

That's it/ I forgot all about that/,SENA/ beautiful/ since I wear a helmet when traveling and don't wear one around our town, the SENA components
can help with the DASH LINK. Check it out, then the light bulb will go on and you'll know what I'm trying to do/ I think you already know/ smart cookie/ / thanks a lot / that SENA used to cost around $300.00 at one time /// Happy Holiday Days Everyone.
