From what I understand Digital Tech is connected directly to the mother ship and I suspect they are keeping a close eye on what going on in the audio arena.

Keep searching man and hopefully you'll find a good dealer to help you out!
Success!! I walked into (my NEW dealer's) service department and asked about the flash. "Sure, no problem. It'll take about 10 minutes" was the response. No appointment necessary, but might have to wait a little bit until someone gets free.

Couldn't ask for anything more...

It literally takes 5 minutes to do.

Loosen the saddlebag, pop the side cover off, plug into the computer, pick a couple options from the drop down menu, flash. That's it!

Glad you found a dealer that will work with you, I'm sure you'll remember that in the future

Awesome!

But now you have a more serious problem you are about to face, and my advice to you is, if you want to keep any sanity you might have, stay away, far away, from this forum or you will be bitten by the audio bug!!!

Spoke to my closest dealer this afternoon, as I'm going to change the flash on mine tomorrow, and the service manager said no problem. So we will see tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well.
