I'm on a trip at the moment, but when I get back home this weekend, I'm hoping to revisit it with my dealer. I've got a good relationship with them, so hopefully they won't charge me again. Will update with anything I learn.

Wow,, highest I had was 1/2 hour labor, (35.00) that's what I paid, local dealer. My dealer was going to be 21.00 but he's an hour away and was booked. (said I could leave my bike in the morning, and he'd work it in) but I'd have had to take off work,, go in hang around, get my flash, probably spend more money since I was there so long,,, etc...) Would have ended up costing me way more than 21.00 I imagine!

Reading the thread, and going to the page for JM it says "Go to the digital technician" and click 0 amp, 4 speakers, etc... we can't do that,, can we? That's done AT the dealer... I thought.

Just got mine flashed, lost the EQ control also ( bass and treble ) but my thinking is that's what we wanted for our aftermarket amps was a flat EQ and no boosted power from the radio...???
So the flash set my head unit for 1 amp and two speakers, is it possible that the bass and treble functions are built into the Harley Boom Amps
and the flash enables the head unit to control that ? I mean there are a lot of wires in those two connectors gong to the Boom Amp.
Just a thought....
I hope I like it, going to have to go back in the fairing and adjust the freq and gain now to try and get back the volume and sound I had before.

I just dialed in my gains after this latest flash that took away bass and treble and im pretty impressed so far. I could go for a little more bass but so far so good. I also havent been out on the road with it yet because its pouring rain right but hopefully tomorrow

Flash !!!
I am getting ready to upgrade my 16 SGS stereo but not sure given this flash issue. Are there any amps out there where we don't need to flash besides Boom? But, anything is better than the stock system, I know......
