I know our bikes are new to market but was just wondering if anyone bit the bullet and installed one of the off the shelf "universal mounting" slip-on? I am not looking to piss off the neighbors, but would like a little bit more sound/growl from the pipes. Maybe some flames too.... Just kidding!!

At work on a rainy day so the bike is at home in the garage. That said, I haven't tried the AUX plug but I'll take Chief's word for it. Honestly, since XM had that special going, 6 months for $30, I've been playing that on the bike. Apologies to OP, didn't mean to take this thread on a tangent.

Like others that have replied, I have an Android and the SMS messages work. The funny thing is, I can’t get music to play over BT or when plugged in via USB. Seems like we should swap phones.

I would say seek therapy but you already have the bike soooo.... as you were.

Very cool Zelthian. Thanks for the info and pics!!

You are right, I wouldn't expect Yamaha to do the calling, but I would think Sena would be all over it in an effort to sell more units. Actually when I called, they were nice, but still the woman on the phone stated that it's does not work with the Yamaha Venture. She then directed me to post up on the community forum to request the engineers to look into it, which I did. I noticed there were a few other people asking about future compatibility with the Yamaha Venture, so I tagged myself with that group. Think there were some people asking the Can Ams too if memory serves, which I didn't realize also had the wired type unit. Now that I look at them though, I noticed that the Harley version has a yellow button and the Honda one has a red button. Maybe the Yamaha version can have a blue button?

Cool man. Great looking bike and thanks for the info and testing it out. Funny enough, I did call Sena and asked if that Freewire would work, but was told no. This was probably Feb time frame when we had about 25 ft of snow. Or at least it felt like that.

Yea figured it would be easy but i like tucking in/hiding wires as much possible. On to more important things, show us more of that pinstripping you got going on.

OK not really worthless, but is there any chance you could post some pics of the setup? It would help with visualizing how the wiring can be handled.
