Default GTS Flash Options
What is the best flash option for flattening the built in Harley EQ curve?

Which bike?

Im using the 8/2 flash. I think its the flattest maybe? Another good option is the rockford flash or the harley 4/0 flash.

My vote is the HD 8/2 flash. Flat signal and closest differential between run and accessory

Is that a dealer only flash or is that an option for the RF flash?

some here say that dealerships can't or won't flash radios anymore. I had mine flashed at a local dealer last year. But any audio shop with the techno research tool can flash them. Rf website had a dealer locator as well.

I’m using the 8/2 flash as mentioned. Indie shop by me did it for 30 bux. This flash doesn’t give you fade option if it matters to you.

I know the dealers around here had that option removed from their programming.........if it doesn't see it, it is a no go.

My shop has the Techno Research tool. I tried all of the flashes and the Kicker flash sounded the best to me. Just a bit of boost around 80-100hz. I stuck with that.
