A quick video of my Bluetooth receiver on my R1250RT into the factory audio system. This will allow you to listen to anything on your phone or streamed through it like Podcasts, radio station apps or audio books.

I thought this Bluetooth feature was factory installed.

It is, but doesn't work with the bikes speakers, I believe they work with helmet Bluetooth speakers. I've tried everything to make the Bluetooth on the bike and Nav come through the speakers with no luck. This system does.

Great Idea!

Are you running bluetooth in your helmet, as well?

I used a separate power cable that connects to the battery. It works great, you just have to remember to power it off. I velcroed it to the top of the right side glove-box. See attached.

Nice to have that info on the power supply cords. I am using the optional cord that connects in the right storage compartments, the trade off is not having the use of the phone to change playlists etc, but best done stationery anyway. Is anyone using i buds with bluetooth and how do they work instead of helmet speakers?
