True unless you ever want to go back to a previous update because a new one broke something and made it worse.

True, then I suggest keeping the downloaded file on your PC, not on the thumb drive.

Since the waypoint limit seems to be fixed with this update it opened up other opportunities. I have a Garmin GPS in my car and I was able to export all the information (waypoints, routes etc) from Garmin Basecamp software and import them into my Ultra Limited. So far so good. For me the Basecamp software is much easiser to navigate and create than the Harly Owners website.

I've been messing around with the GPS after watching some ho to videos (this site is great btw) and the bike consistently shows up about one block away from its actual position...we're talking almost 2/10 ths of a mile. Anyone else get this or just me? I havent been able to test it out on the road since its 20 degrees presently and theres tons of salt on the roads.

You need to get it out with a clear view and pick up multiple sats for it to be accurate. You can get the radio in to Diag mode to and see how many sats you have. I'd wait until you can ride before you worry about it.

Looks like, from what I've been reading, somewhere around 60-65 is the max waypoints. Seems to lock up the unit over that amount and you have to hard-reset it.

Default One problem left

Just had the update done #3 I think. We still have the same problem we have had from day 1 . The radio besides taking a really long time to boot up still defaults to the weather band. They have tried all kinds of things. Still does it. The are talking to Harley about replacing the radio , but with this being the only problem should I . They think it is a power issue so we will see.

I keep the WB turned off by default and only activate it when I'm on a long ride or want a quick update.
