Yes I am! It's yours as soon as we figure out the whole flash debacle. Things have taken a significant set back with HD's latest upgrade.

God....I'm so embarrassed. I did the boom upgrade from h.d.

At 65mph the stock system was very hard to hear. Now it's fine. Which means I'm happy. But I'm pretty sure that dollar for dollar the aftermarket would have exceeded..... it is what it is.

Don't feel too bad. I had the original upgrade on my CVO and was pretty happy with it. I made the mistake of being an early purchaser of the Stage II and I'm not as happy as I was and my wallet is quite a bit lighter.

I'm still hopeful mine is suffering from a programming issue as it seems as though at least some guys are thrilled with the Stage II. I've heard two guys compare it to previous Arc/Focal setups they've had. I'll believe it when I see it!

Seems like stage 1 is more reliable than stage 2
