Default Scanning saved preset stations using handlebar controls?

I set up some preset stations on the HD Harmen Karden Satellite Radio on my 2010 RG. Is it possible to scan through just the saved presets using the handlebar controls?

I would love to find that this is possible. Don't think so though.

Thanks for the replies. That's what I figured, but I was hoping that I was overlooking something. It would be a nice option.

One plus for the batwing you don't have to reach near as far to change directly to a preset station, on a shark it is WAY out there

Found this:

"Click the horizontal rocker switch to the right. This will cause it to select the next preset or strong radio signal in the frequency band. Clicking the left side of the switch causes it to scroll downward through the band or select the previous preset."

Say anything about it in the owner's manual?

"or strong radio signal" this just scans to the next station and if it happens to be a preset it highlights on the display.

I wish there were a way to scroll through the presets as well, I've looked for it with no luck, and yeah read the manual.

I have XM and have all 3 pages of presets defined. So it's worse when you have to press "more" twice then the preset you want.
