Removal of the Fairing & Original Head Unit
To prevent accidental vehicle start-up, which could cause death or serious injury, remove main fuse before proceeding

Remove four fairing screws holding the outer fairing to the inner fairing using a T27 Torx driver. The first two screws are located under the fairing adjacent to each fork
Tip: Turn the handlebar for better access to the screws. The second pair of screws are below/adjacent to each speaker:
Remove three screws that attach the windshield & outer fairing to the inner fairing using a T27 Torx driver. Remove the windshield & set aside. Reinstall the center screw by hand to hold the outer fairing in place. Set remaining screws aside for installation later.
While straddling the front wheel fender, grasp the outer fairing. Remove the center windshield screw. Gently pull the fairing apart from the bike. With the fairing slightly pulled away from the bike, disconnect wire harness for the headlight or any other accessories. Lay the fairing on a protected flat surface to prevent damage.
Disconnect all wire harnesses from the OEM radio. Use a pry tool, flat-head screwdriver, or pick tool to lift up on the locking tab, then pull the male connector(s) out from the female connector(s). Also, unplug the FM antenna & disconnect the CB antenna (if equipped). If the OEM SiriusXM tuner is installed, disconnect & remove its antenna, it will not be used.
Remove the OEM head unit by removing 4 screws from the head unit support bracket. Use a 3/16” hex/allen key tool to remove 2 screws from each side. An access hole in the fairing support brackets accommodates a hex/allen tool. Set these four screws aside for reinstallation.
Gently pull the OEM radio out and up, away from the support bracket. No other parts from the OEM radio are needed.
Take a moment to clean the surfaces of the inner fairing surrounding the cutout for the radio & around the rectangle recess using a damp micro-fiber cloth. Any debris or residue left on these surfaces can affect the water-tight seal around HDHU.9813SG.

Installation of HDHU.9813SG Head Unit

The ignition switch needs to be removed for initial installation. Turn the handlebars to the far left, then turn the ignition switch counterclockwise to FORK LOCK.
Insert the key & press the unlock pin under the switch, on the left side. While pressing the unlock pin under the switch, turn the key counterclockwise slightly beyond the UNLOCK position.
The ignition switch should be free.
Remove the ignition switch with spring and set aside.
Secure HDHU.9813SG to the radio support bracket with the 4 screws set aside during removal of the original head unit (step 5) using the same hex/allen key tool.
Insert and lock the male OEM head unit wire harness connector(s) to the female socket(s) of the included wire harness. Then, insert and lock the male connector of the included wire harness into the corresponding female socket on the back of HDHU.9813SG. Swivel the latch into place, locking the male connector into the female receptacle.
Identify the location you wish to have the CarPlay/Android Auto USB connector. Drill a hole at the location using a 13/16” or 7/8” spade bit or step bit. Route the USB cable from the head unit to the USB location.
Remove the USB port cap, unthread the plastic nut and remove the gasket for the USB port cap. Be sure the secondary gasket ring remains. Insert the threaded end of the USB port thru the hole drilled during the previous step. Slip the gasket ring of the USB port cap over the threaded USB port. Thread the plastic nut down the USB port to secure it to the fairing surface. Finally, reattach the USB port cap.
Connect the FM radio antenna to the female receptacle extension, and any accessory added to this installation; SiriusXM tuner, Bluetooth calling microphone, camera video-in & trigger, amplifier audio RCA’s etc. The wire harness of HDHU.9813SG also includes a blue remote turn-on wire for amplifier(s).

Reinstall the ignition switch pointing towards FORK LOCK with the key inserted and turned to the position beyond UNLOCK. Turn the key back to the UNLOCK position. a click sound should be heard, confirming the ignition switch has been installed correctly. If the switch is loose and comes out, repeat this step.
Take a moment to reinstall the main fuse if it was removed. At this point, HDHU.9813SG should turn-on when the ignition switch is in the IGNITION position. Verify all speakers are playing and the head unit is functioning. If successful, tie any loosely hanging cable/wires that might impede reinstallation of the fairing.

Reinstallation of the Fairing

Tip: Turn the handlebar for better access to the screws.
The second pair of screws are below/adjacent to each speaker:
