I have a new 2021 Ultra-Limited Touring bike that was just outfitted with the CarPlay jumper from 67 Offroad
https://67-offroadllc.com/
Best $25.00 I spent and works as designed and marketed.
I do not have a WHIM and no plans to... my stock radio has the most recent radio software update and all works just great with the "jumper" and my IPhone 12.
No idea where dealers or people heard that it doesn't work on 2021 bikes... but I can confirm its doing just fine on my new one.

I sent a message to the seller asking if the item was returnable and mentioned I just found out that those jumpers don’t work on 2021’s. They replied back saying they DO work on 2021’s and they installed 4 of them yesterday.
After receiving the seller’s response and re-reading your post, I’m guessing the person you quoted wanted the jumper AND the WHIM. I don’t know how all this stuff works together so I could be completely wrong.
I don’t want to take off my fairing right now to look so I guess I’ll wait for the jumper to arrive and pray that things work the way I want them to.
I have a cheap Android I use for radar detection so I tried Android Auto with that and I couldn’t get phone calls routed to my Packtalk or get the MC’s NAV audio routed through my Packtalk either.
If worse comes to worse, I’ll have to set my destination on my phone’s map app AND the MC’s NAV unit, view the map on the MC’s display and get NAV audio from my phone to my Packtalk. Definitely not an ideal scenario for a new MC in our age of technology.

You will NOT get the bike's NAV to be heard through your Packtalk w/o adding the WHIM to the bike. You could just connect your phone directly to your P:acktalk to allow phone calls, but they won't work through the bike to the headset w/o the WHIM. The WHIM is the Wireless Headset Interface Module. Without it, there's no way you BT headset can be connected to the bike.

I’m assuming that if I’m using the jumper to enable CarPlay with my phone connected to the MC via USB and my phone connected to PackTalk via Bluetooth, all audio from my phone is going to be routed to the MC and not to my Packtalk. Right?
If that’s true, then I’m going to be forced to buy the WHIM if I want any audio to my headset regardless of the audio source (MC or phone) when using CarPlay.

I just bought a 2019 CVO Limited and got it home last week. My friend and I bought Sena 50S units, and I was finally able to try to run Carplay and the Sena on a ride last Saturday.
At first, I hadn’t even been able to activate Carplay since the icon didn’t show up. Half way through the ride we were stopped at a gas station for one of the bikes, and when I fired up the bike the icon magically appeared. We had the bluetooth comm already set up, and for a brief moment (maybe a minute or so) CarPlay came up and everything was working. I was able to get into Waze, and about the time I was plugging in a destination the Carplay cut out, followed by the intercom. I couldn’t get them going together again (only spent another minute or so trying).
I plan to work with them this weekend and see if I can get them going reliably. I’ll likely unplug the WHIM (I don’t have the HD Sena headsets) and try jumping the pins with a spade connector - I suspect that will do it. I think that other thread nails down one of the biggest issues… the order of device startup is crucial.
