Default Refurbished 6.5 GT Head Unit

I'm not sure if this is common knowledge or not, but If you don't have the ESP and your Head Unit goes out, you can still go through Harley and get a refurbished Head Unit, using your primary Head Unit as a Core.

I was told 770, which comes with a warranty, but is still a lot better than 1800

Good to know. That might be a better option than buying a used one you know nothing about.

I found this out just by chance, the guy asked me if I had the ESP for my bike and I was like I don't think so, and I just mentioned I was looking for somewhere to get it repaired and that's when he told me you can take it to a Harley Dealership and get the refurbished unit. I guess if I would not have said anything I would have been stuck looking on eBay.

What really caught my attention is the fact that you get a warranty. buying from eBay like you said you know nothing about the unit other than what's posted by the seller.
