What flash was done on the Headunit??

There are about 15 different configurations you can flash the stock headunit to.

Thank you for the reply --- I had it flashed to exactly what biketronics asked for - and then send them a picture of the flash - they said = ok ~

Maybe I missed it, but what year and model bike do you have??

I've got a BikeTronics 4150 amp and six speakers that sounds pretty good. You should not be having that kind of issues with a BikeTronics set up.

Talk to them!!
hey Murph- a bit off topic. What is considered ‘Old Cape Cod?’ I’ve got a lot of family in the Sandwich area. And as a kid spent a lot of time in North Truro.
