I think this my be a new version of the maps.

My first upgrade was 2014 something or other, this one says NACVO MY2017.

Anyone check this out or confirm it is a newer version of our maps?

Nah, open it up and it says Q2.15

[68 XLCH]

My maps are Q2 2014, so they would be new for me, thanks.

Probably is new.  Takes a year or two to get maps data from field surveys to distributed new maps.  Even Garmin is typically a year or more behind current.  The companies generating the map data have to drive the roads collecting coordinates, address and POI info.  Some can probably come from aerial photo and gov sources but at some point someone has to gather the address and POI changes.  Can you imagine doing this for every change made in the US.  Must be millions of road and company info changes.

Think my May 2015 RGU came with 2013 maps which I updated to 2014 late last year.  May wait another year to do the next update.

I think I saw on the NaviExtras website that one map update is free?  I don't have a bike with the Boom Box GPS so I couldn't verify for sure.

If only one update is free how much are they after that?

I thought we had free updates for 3 years, could be wrong.  The problem is, it takes so long for Naviextras to update their maps.  If indeed its now Q2 2015, this will be the first real update for my '15 CVORGU.  My bike came with 2014 maps installed and the bike will be two years old this Dec.

I believe it is 3 free updates in 5 years.

I checked my database version on my bike and it says  NACVO-MY2016.

I did do an update this spring.

Are we saying that I have the latest update?

Thanks

[WTF Chuck]

I don' think so because my bike showed the same thing. so I got a new finger print from the bike and then came in and connected to Navextras site and first had to update the toolbox software. Then it told me there were updates. I am now downloading the new map update and will take quite a while it has been going 45 min and only 26% I will wait till the morning to install on the bike and hope all goes well will update tomorrow.

Can someone help explain the process of checking your version and the steps to perform the update for my '15 CVOSG?

[WTF Chuck]

Go to the bike go to setup scroll down to information then look for soft ware or nav I am typing from memory  and you should find what you are looking for.

Then if you want to do update you have to export from bike to a USB stick at least 8GB formatted fat 32

Do you have the Nav tool box on your computer already if not you need to download that set up an account on the Navextras web site and follow the directions on there site.

I don't have the Nav Tool Box or know what it is exactly.  I also use a Mac if that affects anything...

[WTF Chuck]

I don't think the toolbox works with a Mac you can follow the link
and find out for sure . The tool box  software is need to do the map update.

So I guess I have to download the update from a Windows PC to a USB thumb drive and then load it into the bike to update?
