Default Factory Software Upgrades?

Had my 2010 Limited at the dealer for the rear brake switch recall. While in they upgraded the software by 2 versions.

When I asked the Service Mgr, she didn't know what the upgrades were for, just that the mechanic had done it no charge.

Anyone know what these upgrades were for? I'm guessing just the radio as an online search isn't coming up with anything else.

Ask to speak to the tech, seems you should have been told what they did. I would guess maybe a EPA up grade. Have not heard of any issues with the motors.

My 2010 Ultra's HK radio needed the flash update. Downloaded it and flashed it in the garage. Other than that, there is no other updates that would apply to my knowledge.

too bad, I was hoping for a factory solution to the pinging. I've got the V-Xieds but haven't installed them yet.

LowcountryJoe,

I have a 12 Ultra EG. Just curious as to how you download a radio update and flash it to the radio. I have researched but could not find anything.

Your '12 should have the latest update, but you can check and if not HERE are the instructions and DL. Just remember to burn the CD at 8x or below and also Nero works as one of the best burners for the update. I really don't use Nero much, but for this job it may be the best.

LowcountryJoe,

The link for the HD AAS software update. It has links to the AAS software download and instructions. The instructions detail the steps to download, copy, and upload the update to your bike. Use a CD, not a DVD. The disc reader will not read a DVD.

Anyone know if the Ipod software update only works for Ipods or will it work to control other Mp3 Players?
