CRF1100 Apple car play

A little guide on how to set up Apple car play on your Twin.

[@philb.5656]

My God man thank you! So much easier than trying to decipher the manual. Thank you for taking the time to do the demonstration, very much appreciated!

[@Vanguard1987]

Thank you for this. Found it just before picking up my new ATAS, so very much appreciated!

[@jezevans8697]

Really useful - if owners took a few minutes to watch and learn (people like me) then you've got a really good system on the AT with huge functionality

[@ne21]

Thanks. Easier than reading the manual!

[@Geordiebiketester]

Honda just released today you can now use Android on your AT. Once we get one to play with I will do a quick bit of content.

[@danielslevene8117]

Excellent & thank you very much. More please on the GL1800 DCT Airbag Tour. 🤞👍🏻

[@renrut111]

If you already have for example a sena system used on another motorcycle it’s important that you carry out a factory reset to delete all information or the bike will ‘default’ to passenger connection and you will not be able to use Apple play

[@danielflorian3458]

Can i use Waze on that display?

[@AkansasRIDER]

sorry, you don't "press the tiny button" to get to other screens in carplay... instead swipe the screen. thnx for informative video.

[@rsaric3950]

will this work with bluetooth iphone headset.? I cant connect

[@baluchavan6625]

my dream is to get one

[@davecar9213]

My AT will not recognize my Sena 10U. Any tips for that.

[@Geordiebiketester]

David Carrigan Hi my wife works in our clothing department and said is you Sena fully up to date with its firm ware ?

[@rockmanADV]

I get so frustrated with CarPlay I just unhook the phone so I can see my off-road screen! 😂😂😂😂 thanks

[@TheFbiFilesRepeat]

Why was that?

[@RockyDeanda-w6m]

@@TheFbiFilesRepeatWell this comment was before the recall Honda had. Once I got my new screen it worked flawless.

[@JHPier]

Thanks for the explanation. There is no built in storage place for the phone? No pocket or under seat storage?

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

was your question ever answered? thinking about buying this bike and wondered same .....worried about phone mount and vibration destroying i phone camera

[@JHPier]

@@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA Confirmed there is no set place for the phone. I bought a Quad Mount with anti-vibration dampener and have been fine, and in rain I just put it in my tank bag - there’s really no need to see the phone since I can see the AT’s screen and control it through the handlebar.

[@ANONYMOUSBIKERUSA]

@@JHPier thanks for the info if you don't use a tank bag tho phone and rain won't mix hmmmmm good info thanks 🙏🏽

[@scottbirdsall9230]

Does anyone know if its the same for android?

[@DavideGalloni]

Hi, thanks for this video. Just a question, which usb cable I need to buy to connect my Galaxy Note 10 Plus to the bike? Is there a particular cable? My phone has a Type C port.

[@Geordiebiketester]

I thought the phone would come with a normal size USB to phone for easy charging. Anyway it’s standard size USB that the bike has for plugging into.

[@terrystratford1235]

@@Geordiebiketester can a generic shop bought cable work, or does it have to be the cable that comes with the phone? I ask as I have an old Samsung s5 and just have a charging cable I got from a fuel station!

[@Geordiebiketester]

@@terrystratford1235 Honda made a point on our training to say use original cables. You may have to buy a Samsung cable just to be sure.

[@terrystratford1235]

[@baldandbiking]

wont using google maps suck up all the data on your phone plan?

[@Geordiebiketester]

Motorcycle Destinations by C650guy yep it will so maybe worth using another for your mapping.

[@IIxMURPHYxII]

Every time I sit on mines I need to re-add my Bluetooth headset. Any tips?

[@Geordiebiketester]

Had the same thing with a Wing. My phone was connecting to other stuff which caused a lot of cross over. Check your headset is only set to the Twin and not connecting to your phone via Bluetooth.

[@UncleWally3]

Sorry for the stupid question, but why does the iPhone have to be physically connected if Bluetooth has been activated? And while I’m asking, once connected, can you control the GPS using the headset?

[@TheWalfare]

Carplay "mirror" the screen from you phone to the bike. I would image bluetooth bandwidth is way too low to accomplish wireless data transfer for the screen.

[@UncleWally3]

TheWalfare: Thanks, but yet my television and iPad/phone can be mirrored - wirelessly? But I guess what allows that the wifi, not Bluetooth?

[@TheWalfare]

@@UncleWally3 By doing some quick googling I can see you can get wireless Applecar play, abeit the support is rare or you have to buy some aftermarket adapter/dongle for it. A quote from one article I found "Fortunately, a small but growing number of cars now support wireless CarPlay, which was first introduced in iOS 9, and uses a combination of Bluetooth and Wi-Fi to keep your iPhone connected to your ride." Other article mentions that wireless receivers are costly so this might be choice from Honda to keep overall cost down. I know its pretty shitty you have to use cable everytime, but for long distance touring you would plug your phone in for charging anyway so its only inconvenience for short rides, commuting, etc.. For my crf1100 I will prob route permanent cable to leave it on the bike.

[@simulacrae]

@@UncleWally3 the simple answer is that while apple have a wireless option for CarPlay most manufacturers doesn’t support it yet.

[@slowsteve3497]

I think they want you to keep your hands off your phone while you’re riding. I think it’s a safety issue. Whether you like it or not.

[@ryaniskandarrrs]

Can it not use by cable?

[@Geordiebiketester]

Ryan Iskandar no it needs the cable for full apple car play.

[@ryaniskandarrrs]

@@Geordiebiketester thanks alot for that information....my dad just bought the new africa twin and he ask me does it need cable to use the car play?.....by the way...thank you

[@chemabenitez1449]

When I connect my Intercom EJEAS V6PRO a la AT the Intercom automatically turns off, could someone tell me what I am doing wrong? I have previously verified that the Bluetooth is compatible with the system that incorporates the Africa Twin.

[@spugh89]

This needs answering please?

[@rafe1603]

Same issue here with V6 Netphone and AT. Did you solve?

[@p.santos6694]

Can I connect my Samsung galaxy (android) ?

[@Geordiebiketester]

Yes you can very soon Honda just released a update for Android.

[@T8kyol]

My apple car play refuses to work on my 2022 africa twin. I dont have an “original” cable. But its charging the phone. I cant imagine apple has a special extra “car play” wire in their charge cords as opposed to others. Honda do better. Chevy has wireless car play. I expected better from Honda. Very dissatisfied. Should have got a KTM

[@Geordiebiketester]

Just checking you have done it correct? Bluetooth headset pair with the Twin. Plug iPhone in on its lead. The iPhone has no Bluetooth connectivity to the headset or the bike? It’s that simple. Headset to bike phone to bike nothing else.

[@T8kyol]

@@Geordiebiketester yeah tried that. My system must be screwed

[@ClasssicAri]

Pardon? Did this guy just click the page dot to go to the next screen? What a psychopath.

[@rafeples1]

HEY HAO I CAN DO THIS WITH ANDROID PLS

[@Geordiebiketester]

No sorry not yet. It may come in the future as the Wing has a update to use android as well as Apple car play.

[@Geordiebiketester]

Honda say you can now just released a update for Android. Once we get our Twin sorted I will have a look at it see how it all works.

[@willito6969]

Does the Honda xavd has CarPlay?

[@Geordiebiketester]

No it uses Honda Road sync app.
