This may not be what the OP is asking for but it sheds light on why a bluetooth headset won't connect wirelessly to the system. I know there are some good workarounds like the Sena solutions.

The Bluetooth profiles currently supported are:

HFP
A2DP
AVRCP
MAP

HFP is hands-free profile; this is for interfacing a cell phone to a hands-free kit in a vehicle.

A2DP is advanced audio distribution profile; this is for streaming audio between a media device and a (vehicle) radio.

AVRCP is for remote control of the radio/media player; it allows a remote device to pause, skip, fast-forward, etc. on music tracks.

MAP is message access profile; it's used to exchange messaging data between a cell phone and a radio. This is typically used in vehicle systems for displaying (or speech to text if supported by software) of SMS messages.

What is NOT listed in the specification is the HSP-headset profile. This is why a Bluetooth headset won't connect wirelessly with the 6.5 infotainment system.

 

Thanks for posting this info - it's really helpful to understand the issues. It does make it very painful to know that it's basically just a software kernel that is missing that's preventing us from having the bluetooth convenience however.

Has anyone started any communication with HD to let them know we want this? Or has any industrious software writer come up with a hack to add it in?

 

It's not a matter of the Infotainment is "missing" a Bluetooth Profile, it's that the Bluetooth profile we want doesn't exist.

The HSP profile mentioned is not the answer. That is really a watered down version of the HFP. It is used to interface to cellphones. It would not allow control of the voice commands to the Nav, CB, etc. while allowing simultaneous connection to a cellphone via HFP and a music playback device via A2DP. What is needed is an entirely new profile for two way communication to replace a hardwired mic, let's call it a "Bluetooth Helmet Profile". Not only that but the Bluetooth headsets would have to support it as well. Harley can't do anything until (if ever) such a profile exists and headset manufactures implement it.

It's not going to happen anytime soon. There is no motorcycle or car system that can utilize a Bluetooth headset in this manner. Go try and pair your Bluetooth helmet to your car and see what success you have.
