Default Best Software version ‘16 Street Glide Special

Hello all, Its been a while since I last posted. I’ve been real busy

I recently had the bike serviced at the dealer and I believe they updated the software on my system. The version now is 1.22.01. If I recall, back when I was setting up my system everyone was saying that one of the 1.19 versions sounded the best and I think that is what I had before they updated it but it may have been the first 1.20 version. It sounds different since the shop visit. Maybe a little muddy and not as loud.

What is the current thinking on the best sounding software version?

My my system is a stock Boom head unit with Biketronics line leveler, a ARC 600.4 amp, Focal 165krc in the fairing and Titan II in the lowers.

Thanks!

Don't know about what is the best version but I do remember reading that if your info unit has been updated then do a reset on it.

I had one of the older updates on my '16 SGS and never updated cause I never had a reason to. Never remember anyone saying a specific version sounded better but some were more troublesome than others.
