Going to get a smaller one tomorrow, the boys took my 16 gig ones back to college, imagine that. LOL.  KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED.

[mrambo4]

Okay maybe a secret is smaller is better, used a 16 gig thumb drive and it took it.  So secret use a 8-16 gig thumb drive.

I knew it, I knew it, I knew it!!!!

I had absolutely no issues with my boom box whatsoever.................... I took the bike to the dealership for recalls and had them put in the new download and now it's frigged up.

Pulled the fuse.  Reinstalled the update. AVC still doesn't work without having to turn it off then on every time I start the bike. Any other ideas?

[Ghost__Rider]

Only thing I have noticed that changed on mine is the intercom. I can't hear myself when I speak. But it is clearer and no wind noise. My wife says it's much better. I also can't hear myself when on the phone. Kinda make me feel like I need to talk louder than normal.
Also the zoom feature in the nav and weather map works like it's supposed too now.

How often is there an update?

[GregKhougaz]

Got an apologetic call from my dealer re the speed volume control.  H-D admits that for the CVO bikes,  the issue is not yet fixed.  It has to do with the external amp interface.  They're working on a software solution.  (So they said.)

I updated my 2015 FLTRUSE this morning with the 1.18.3 software version.

AVC not working - works now
Auto Dim not working - works now (haven't been through a tunnel yet but it adjusts for different levels of light)
Intermittent PTT not muting music - works now
Time Zone issue - well at least it's the right time for East TN. Hopefully it will adjust correctly when traveling

Update to my original post. I use my headset most of the time so the AVC seemed to work. When I switch to the external speakers as others have mentioned it does not work unless you go into the setting and turn it off and then back on at each start-up. The time zone issue does not work either. The clock displays EST which is correct for my area but when I cross the state line into Georgia where it is EST as well the time jumps an hour ahead.

Yep, sounds like we're talking about the same thing.

The route I loaded was about 125 miles long, and is a scenic route down the Mississippi for about half of it.  Unfortunately, No mapset I've ever had wants to follow those roads, or even go down them at all.  They are treated like off-road trails, even though they're paved.  So I have to use a lot of shaping points to force the track where I want it.

I checked my last several years of trips, and 90% of them would have been fine with 9 waypoints.  It's that 10% that would have made things frustrating.

Maybe it's time to try following a "track"?

Big Lew,
Have you had a chance to fool with the 6.5 Nav much? Reason I'm asking is because I found a waypoint/location issue. When you import a route the 6.5 Nav puts all of the waypoints/locations into the Saved. The issue I found is that on some of the waypoints/locations when you go into the Saved it won't let you select them. So if you wanted to route to that waypoint/location without loading the Trip you can't or if you want to delete it, same thing, you can't. What I found is that if the waypoint/location is created that does not have a physical address and just uses coordinates it won't let you select it or remove it. I was able to determine the work around to fix this issue that appears to be in the software on the 6.5 Nav. If you open the gpx file in a mapping software and select the properties of a waypoint/location that does not have a physical address the Notes/Comments for it is blank. From what I can tell the 6.5 Nav uses the Notes/Comments for the Title Bar display on the screen so if it is blank this is making the selection fail. Take that same waypoint/location and add a name/description in the Notes/Comments property using your mapping software. Import it back into the 6.5 Nav and when you select the waypoint/location it will now let you select it and whatever you put in the Notes/Comments will be displayed in the Title Bar on the screen. Any of the waypoint/locations that fit this scenario will be duplicated in the Saved list when you import the gpx file. The only way that I found to remove them was to do a factory reset and that is a pain because the Save settings and Restore settings does not work. You have to manually change all the preferences back to what they were before you did the reset.

I've not been able to use this beyond powering up and loading a trip.  There's just been too much snow.  I can't even power it up right now because I have the bike torn apart changing the bars.

I understand what you're saying about not being able to select points to delete them.  I had a similar issue when I loaded duplicates and had to do a reset.   Have you tried deleting the trip to see if that will delete the associated points?

Yes I have tried. Deleting the trip does not remove any of the points associated with it. I have contacted HD Customer service several times about this issue and they just don't seem to grasp what I am trying to explain to them. In both cases they have referred me to page 162 of the Boom audio manual at which point I explain to them that I can't select the waypoint to edit it or delete it (I believe they think I am an idiot that can't follow instructions). The work around I described works fine but ultimately they need to fix the underlying software issue. I have a good friend that I ride with often that is a retired HD Regional Service Rep. He is going to set up a call for me with someone technical at the MoCo that would be willing to listen and understand the issue.

That has happened to me also but after I avoided commas, apostrophes, hyphens and other characters the problem was resolved for me. I think these characters cause a corruption and only a reset resolved that.

I noticed the same things, wife didn't like not hearing herself at first. Haven't used the phone yet. Did have a new issue pop up and that was the whole Boombox locked up downtown San Antonio trying to get to the hotel, GPS display froze, kept playing music but could not get it to respond to any input, nor could I turn it off. Everything was fine after shutting bike off and turning back on.
Only other thing I noticed was it seemed it took a long time to sync bluetooth with my phone. Oh well fix one break another.

Yesterday had another issues pop up. While playing music from my phone, the music would stop and the only thing that started it again was to press the PTT, so I got to watching and noticed the CB icon light up like someone broke in but nothing had and squelch high enough to prevent noise problems. Anybody else noticed this?
