Same for me. I can connect my 20S to the SR10 Bluetooth unit and to my iPhone at the same time. I went that route vs connecting my iPhone to my SR10, although that would work also.

Yep, the 2 foot Firestick NGP. Don't yet know how well it works and may not know for a couple of months. I don't live where I can check it out with someone so will not know how it works for a couple of months probably. I think it should work well. If not, then I'll install a regular antenna that grounds to the bike. That should work also as it worked on my GL1800 for years. You cannot cut or coil the special NGP coax and they have you put the extra length into a bowtie shape with 1' or more width of the bowtie. I placed mine in the area under the passenger seat area and it fit fine. No holes drilled for this installation.
Not sure on the splitter from the Firestick. I don't use the FM on the bike very often (I also used the USB from the left saddlebag for my music), and it seems to work just as well laying horizontal at the back of the bike as it did mounted.
Have attached a couple of photos. In the picture of the mount with the antenna, I put extra tape around the mount and antenna connection just to ensure that it not get grounded to the bike. After installation I did a continuity check to ensure that I did not have the antenna grounded to the bike. A reminder that I purchased an additional OEM antenna mount that I drilled out for the CB antenna. I was going to make a bracket, but decided that this was simplier for me and would give me the exact mounting location and angle. The original mount for the FM antenna is still attached to the FM antenna and I simply moved it to the back of the bike under the top cover. That way I can put that antenna back as original if I desire.

You can control the volume on the handle bars. I would think that would be about it. I also mounted my phone to the clutch mount during this adventure so I would have to control from there. I use a flash drive in the saddle bag for tunes most of the time, I like being able to use the bikes controls for that. For me, this was for the use of Maps, an app called Rever, and notifications etc. Plus with the 12v power plug, I can keep my phone from going dead while running these apps.
Thanks for checking the Bluetooth.So just to clarify, you can have your iPhone connected to the Sena then you can have your iPhone connected to the motorcycles Bluetooth and play music through the speakers on the bike. Just want to be sure prior to ordering this.
Does Rever let you download routes out have created elsewhere? If so, how many waypoints?
Yes phone connected to Sena, Phone also connected to bikes BT. Music will play through bike's speakers from phone. As far as Rever goes, I just started messing with it last summer, but I kept forgetting to use it, or I would forget to turn it back on after a lunch stop. But having the phone mounted on the bars should help me remember better than keeping my phone in my jacket pocket. I can't tell you much about the app, I am just starting to mess with it.
I checked this out on the EC website, thanks for sharing.
So...if you pull the left fairing pocket...this will mount underneath, and use the 3.5 mm cable, correct? How does it get power?
I would like to mount my phone for turn-by-turn directions through the Bluetooth, and possibly for tunes, and would like to keep my phone charging while doing these things.
There is an open power connection under the cubby. If you install a usb socket you have power for your phone. That BT module comes set up for that exact situation, as it fits right in between the power connection and the usb socket. The website explains it better than I can, but it is simple, everything is out of sight.
