16 | WheelsOfGrace.com | Issue 48 H-D Connect utilizes a cellular telematics control unit (TCU) that functions as an LTE-enabled modem connecting LiveWire motorcycles to the cloud. The H-D Connect service will be offered for a one- year free trial period after the purchase of a new LiveWire motorcycle and available with a subscription charge following the initial free period. H-D Connect will be available beginning in Fall 2019 in the United States, Canada, Puerto Rico and most EU countries. In late August 2020, service will be available in Australia, Brazil, Mexico and Japan. Subscription details can be found on H-D.com/connect. Motorcycle status: With H-D Connect and the H-D App, the LiveWire motorcycle owner will be able to check key vehicle health information on the H-D App at any time and from any location where sufficient cellular signal is available. Information available through H-D Connect includes high-voltage battery charge status, available range and 12-volt battery charge status. For example, as the LiveWire motorcycle is charging, the owner can check the charge status, including charge level and time to completion, without having to be near the motorcycle. Tamper alerts and stolen vehicle tracking service: To ensure that an owner's bike is safe and secure, H-D connect indicates the location of the parked motorcycle on a map in the Harley-Davidson App at any time and in any location where sufficient cellular signal is available. H-D Connect will send an alert to the owner's phone if the security system is activated because the motorcycle has been bumped or is being tampered with. Another alert will be sent to the owner's phone if the motorcycle is moved out of the geo-fenced area, and GPS-enabled stolen-vehicle tracking provides peace of mind should the owner need to locate their motorcycle. Service reminders and notifications: Automated reminders about upcoming vehicle service requirements and other vehicle care notifications will be provided to the rider through the H-D App, which will also offer a Charge Station Location Finder. Color Touchscreen A 4.3-inch color TFT touchscreen (thin- film-transistor, a type of liquid-crystal display noted for high image quality and contrast) located above the handlebar offers the rider a wide range of information on a display that's bright and easy to read. The display unit is tilt-adjustable to afford most riders an optimal viewing angle and the screen brightness adjusts automatically. The touchscreen only functions when the motorcycle is not moving but many of the display options can be changed using the hand control joysticks while riding. • A speedometer, range and high-voltage battery status (percent remaining) are always displayed, as required by motor vehicle regulations. • The screen display can be customized with several rider-selectable "widgets." Some include: • A power meter that indicates how much of the available power is being used as the motorcycle is being ridden • Ride Mode indicator (displays which mode is active) • Charging status (showing time remaining to full charge) • Alert information keyed to the tell-tale warning lights (turn signals, ABS active, Traction Control active, Check Engine/ Battery Overheat, etc.) • Active Bluetooth® connection and available functions • The LiveWire motorcycle offers Bluetooth® connectivity for use with a smartphone and a wireless headset through the touchscreen. The rider can listen to music files stored on the smartphone, accept incoming calls, and hear turn-by-turn navigation instructions provided by the Harley-Davidson App. Music file and incoming call information is displayed on the screen. The rider can control music and phone functions with the joystick hand controls. 16 | WheelsOfGrace.com | Issue 48
