NOTE
RIDE PLANNER AND THE H-D APP ARE FOR DOMESTIC VEHICLE USE ONLY.
When using GPX files, after being imported onto the GTS radio unit via USB or Mobile App, the Alternate Routes needs to be set to OFF. This will make the GPX Route accurate to design on the Ride Planner website or H-D App.
The system can import ride, trail and destination files saved in GPS Exchange Format (GPX). The files may have been exported by another motorcycle equipped with a Boom! Box, created by Ride Planner (https://maps.harley-davidson.com/) or using the H-D App. A single GPX file may contain multiple rides and destinations.
The system can use GPX files exported by other GPS devices or mapping websites. While GPX is a standard format for navigation files, due to differences in how the file is generated and the data in that file from different programs, there may be some differences in the route once imported. Differences may be in the destinations or waypoints on the route or the route path between points. Review the route before riding.
Imported routes are stored in respective locations within the radio. Destinations are stored in the Saved list. Imported rides are stored in the Rides list. Imported phone book contact files (V-card files, VCF) are added to the Book list in the navigation menu. In some instances, the imported GPX file may load as a trail instead of a ride due to the data from other mapping sites.
Harley-Davidson recommends using Ride Planner (https://maps.harley-davidson.com) for creating, saving and exporting routes to guarantee system compatibility.
