Interesting ! I've had a lot of starting problems at freezing temps here. Not what they describe though. Sometimes nothing at all. Sometimes a difficult start and no MODES. Only in cold weather. I'm seeing my dealer Thursday so I'll bring this up. To his credit, he rang me up to see how the bike was behaving since the last updates.

Dealer updated my FW today it made things worse on my bike. Could not get to diagnostics screen, bike did not want to start well at all, the modes did not want to come up right on the bike.
I have a call into Harley and the dealer is going to call as well. I smart enough to take the old FW with me, reinstalled that and the diagnostics works right, the modes come up right and the bike started like it had been before the new software. If someone else has had the update done it would be great to hear if it worked for them. As a note my bike is current on all the updates available.

Sorry to hear u having troubles still. Got mine done today and everything seems fine. I wasnt having any issues previously except for some funky hard starts a while back. The new update does in fact enlarge the fonts on the screen.
