I've posted it numerous places, no dedicated thread. No handling differences from stock. I like it, but it's not for everyone. Had a guy ask my why I would do this. I told him, "I bought the thing as a Sport Touring bike. Three reasons, Horsepower, groundclearance, weight."

Today I had my bike serviced and updated by the dealership. They did the seat base recall, the cold weather infotainment update and I now have the extended Hill Hold time and the bigger fonts on the display. Nice!

They adjusted the gear shifter up a bit for me as well - which I am more than capable of doing myself, but while the bike was with them, I figured they could do it.

My heated grips had quit working a couple of weeks ago and they diagnosed that to a fault in the wire from the grip to where it plugs in. New grips ordered under warranty and will be here next week. 2 minutes to instal when they arrive.

The left hand mounting point of my steering damper is rusting, so they are contacting the mother ship about that to see if they can get a warranty replacement

Anyway....all done and up to date and I was even pleasantly surprised with the price - which is about the first time I can say that for an HD service.

So there is a charge for the latest software updates?

No - no charge for the updates - all part of warranty. I had the 5K miles service done at the same time and that was what the charge was for.

I had the TFT update/recall done 2 weeks ago, but I did not notice any increase in brake "hill hold" time.

There's a couple of updates, the TFT update that adjusts the screen font ISN'T the same as the cold weather recall update. One is a flash (BSM?, cold weather, plugs into the computer) and one is an infotainment update using the USB C port.

I'm not sure if the cold weather and hill hold are on the same flash.

FYI the infotainment updates CAN'T be downloaded by us regular joe's, you'll need a HD tech to download it for you if you want to update it yourself. FYI USB stick has to be FAT32 so if your using windows to format your drive, it needs to be 32GB or less.

Thanks...I have to get tires mounted in a few weeks, I'll have the tech ensure that everything is up to date.

"the left hand mounting point of my steering damper is rusting" Mine too. The design of that is makes it to hold water. The only fix is going to be covering it up somehow. Fortunately, not seeing any noticeable rust anywhere else.
