08 SERT map files
Does anyone know when the MoCo will have the map files for the 08 models. The 07 maps will not work I was told and they are saying the maps won't be ready until September sometimes. Does anyone have more info on this? Thanks for your help.

The way it sounded to me was the SERT is the same its the software that creates the map files that needs to be changed. The new ECM will not take the 07file. If someone knows more than I do please post.

I had an '07 download put in my '08 yesterday along with SE AC and slip-ons. The is some gurgling and mild decel poping. No noticable performance increase. Bike does run cooler and glad to get ride of the stockmufflers. Just a band aid until the SERT is available.

RE: 08 SERT map files
I've heard the new ECUs are different. Don't know how different if any in the area of the fuel/timing maps data structures. It may be they're backward compatible in that area, but if the units themselves are a different design it's not likely they maintained compatibility across-the-board for the SERT interface, which would mean a redesign of that, too. Probably all is true, which is why the delay thus far.

This is an excerpt from a recent Tech Info paper from HD, irt mods to the 08 MY bikes....
"...
"...
Modifications to all 2008 Models
•
Perform PDI and Set-up prior to modifying new motorcycles to verify proper operation and become familiar with new features.
•
Do not modify motorcycles until you have all the parts required; this includes calibrations and the EFI TUNER.
•
2008 Model Street Legal calibrations will be available on Digital Tech II. All Race
Calibrations will require use of Screamin’ Eagle EFI RACE TUNER.
•
As a reminder for previous model years, 2007 Street Legal calibrations are available on DTII and 2007 Race calibrations require use of EFI TUNER. For 2006 and earlier models, Street Legal calibrations and some Race calibrations are available on DTII, other Race calibrations will require an EFI TUNER.
•
EFI RACE TUNER for 2008 models will not be available until sometime this fall.
Someone got fed a line of Bravo Sierra......
FWIW, MY 08 bikes have a COMPLETELY DIFFERENT set of calibrations.... and all cals are -08(X) part numbers.... There is NO POSSIBLE WAY that you can install an 07 map into an 08 bike with the dealer Digital Tech.....
