That depends on where you go. The HD dealer cant flash it for aftermarket but a RF authorized dealer can. Expect to pay $50-100 for that.

I apologise for being dense skilled. RF? As long as it's an HD radio Harley can flash. If not HD then have to go somewhere else. I think I follow ya.

TravelingGypse, Hertz HCX vs. SV's. I was pulling the trigger on a set of Hertz SVs until I read your comment above. Looking at speakers for lowers, matched up with BT4180 and 7.2 Titans in the fairing. Appreciate it.

The sv's will be perfect in the lowers as that is what I am running in mine. You don't need a coax in the lowers as you have all the highs you need in the fairing and in your face. Those sv's get loud and provide the mids needed from the lowers without needing a bunch of power.

I have another question. Is that amp difficult to tune? I've never had to tune one. Just figured I'd ask before I start to throw money. lol

Which amp? If you are referring to the BT4180?, there are no adjustments on that amp whatsoever.

If budget is not a huge concern, the Focal Sport amp is very damn hard to beat for both short term and longer term growth options.

@travelingypsye mentioned this one:

Stinger SPX700X4 Micro 4 Channel 700 Watt Powersports Amplifier for Motorcycles, ATV, Marine and Mobile Applications.
So I wasn't sure if that one was hard to tune or if there were other ones?
