Why your sunglasses get blown off at highway speeds – and how to fix it?

A Street Glide rider on the Harley Davidson Forums recently mentioned that at highway speeds, the wind gets so strong it blows his sunglasses right off. Chances are, many of you have experienced the same thing.

The root cause is simple: most Street Glide windshields are in the 6″ to 8″ range. That height does little to protect your face. At speed, the concentrated airflow hits you right in the face, which can not only knock off your shades but also make it harder to breathe comfortably.

To solve this, you need to redirect the air over the top of your helmet.

Option one – swap your current windshield for a taller one, typically 9″ to 10″ or even higher. A taller shield pushes the air up and over your head. The downside? A very tall windshield can throw off the classic low-profile look of the Street Glide fairing.

Option two – go with a windshield that’s engineered with better aerodynamics. Look for a curved or recurved top edge designed to lift the airflow without adding excessive height. This reduces wind blast on your face, so you don’t have to worry about losing your sunglasses at highway speeds – and you keep the sleek, aggressive stance of your bike.

If that sounds like the solution you’ve been searching for, take a closer look at this windshield. It was built specifically to solve the airflow issues riders like you face every time you roll on the throttle.

Why your Skyline OS won’t play iPhone navigation voice through the Harley motorcycle’s speakers – and how to fix it?

A Harley rider recently ran into this problem: he wanted to play iPhone turn-by-turn navigation voice through the motorcycle’s speakers, but nothing came out.

Let’s break down why this happens. The key lies in how Skyline OS handles connected devices. To enable Apple CarPlay, the system requires a Bluetooth headset (a helmet headset, a Bluetooth adapter, or a Cardo etc.) to be connected as a “microphone”. This is a hard requirement from Apple’s CarPlay architecture. As a result, navigation voice is routed to that headset – not to the bike’s built‑in speakers.

So, is there a way to force the navigation voice and music to play through the fairing speakers instead?

Yes, there is a proven workaround. You can wire a standalone Bluetooth adapter to the bike (using a wired connection), then pair your iPhone with that adapter’s signal. Once set up, the adapter tricks the system into sending audio to the motorcycle’s speakers. Both navigation prompts and music will play clearly through the handlebar-mounted speakers.

And here’s another bonus: you no longer have to buy Harley’s official onboard maps. Last time I checked, the map license cost $349.95 for three years – money you can now save.

If you’re looking for exactly this kind of solution, check out the CarPlay Adapter featured below. It connects via your iPhone to CarPlay and lets you enjoy navigation voice and music the way it should be – through your bike’s speakers.
