Thumbs down 2019 map updates

I have just been enquiring about map updates for the Boom Box 6.5 GT fitted to 2014-2018 model year bikes. Apparently HD have decided not to issue any new map updates past MY2018 which is actually a map version produced in Quarter 2, 2016.
So in my case, I have a Ł25k motorcycle that's a few months old with a Ł2k infotainment system installed with maps that are 3 years old with no option to update them.

I sometime wonder why I keep giving this company my business - thanks very much Harley, you sure as hell don't know how to look after your customers!

Default New map up date

I just updated my map from 2014 to 2020? According to naviextras . As for the cost CVO owners get 3 free updates over 5 years.It says so right in the owners manual.

I think the updates are several years behind when they actually make them.

If the updates are not free any more for CVO models beginning in 2019, how did you update to MY20 for free?

because maybe he is still under his 3 update/5 year plan? they didn't cut off everybody else's updates, they just aren't offering them with the new bike purchase any longer.

Makes sense. I assumed his bike is a 2019 model.
