Alfred02 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Anybody else noticed this? My bike had just a service done and they uploaded any updates into it like shift assist update. It didn't say anything about any changes to the screen function. Before, the screen would always go down to it's resting position, once the ignition was turned off. Now it stays in the last position I have set, without going to it's resting position. Link to comment
mdm Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 I had mine in for the 6000 mile service and got all of the SW updates and no change. I wish the windshield would stay up with key off. Link to comment

moshe_levy Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 This is something I complained about in the first week. If the updates leave the screen up, I'll be a happy man. There is no need for this added wear and tear at all. Prior RTs stayed in position until the rider decided to move things. -MKL Link to comment

moshe_levy Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 I know. This issue plagues the Wetheads 2014+. Link to comment
Sailorlite Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 When the windshield is in its down position does it somehow "lock" the Nav V into the dash? Link to comment
narcosis Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 When the windshield is in its down position does it somehow "lock" the Nav V into the dash? No. I have always removed and installed the Nav V with the windshield fully down. Link to comment

Just trying to work out if this is an actual intended update, or a software screw-up when they uploaded the latest update. Link to comment
strataj Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 When the windshield is in its down position does it somehow "lock" the Nav V into the dash? Not on the RT but in you sig line I see you have owned a K1600 with the screen down it does lock it Jay Link to comment
TrickLidz Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 I think it's an actual update as the dealer said I needed the "windshield" update and did it but didn't have the equipment for a computer "reflash" Yes, I agree, I hate it coming down when key off, it was so much better to be able to clean the windshield with it up (on our 41 day tour) while my buddies 13 has to be put on and raised!! Another negitive, when I started using the tall ram mount on the handlebar for phone, vid, cam, etc and forgot about the shield lowering it was constantly hitting that on the way down! If I had known that this would happen after the "fix" I wouldn't have had it done Link to comment
AndyS Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 ...If I had known that this would happen after the "fix" I wouldn't have had it done Are you saying it never used to come down, but now you have had an update, it DOES come down? Link to comment
TimRT Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Just trying to work out if this is an actual intended update, or a software screw-up when they uploaded the latest update. I just had the gear shift assist pro update a couple of weeks ago and my windscreen returns to its resting position with the ignition off, just like when new. Link to comment
Alfred02 Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 Well, as I said, mine stays and works perfectly normal in any other way. I just washed the bike yesterday and it was a god sent. It just makes it soo much easier to wash with the screen all the way up. If it's an unintentional by-effect during the last flash upgrade, then I like to keep it that way. Link to comment

I hear you, BUT I can't help but wonder....so what else got screwed up!!!???? Link to comment
Alfred02 Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 I hear you, BUT I can't help but wonder....so what else got screwed up!!!???? Everything else works, except I can't notice any difference regarding the quick shift that is suppose to be improved and suppose to have had an update with the latest flash. shifting is exactly the same as it was before.

Skywagon Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 2014RT came out of service today. Had 3 software updates. No change in windshield behavior, no noticeable change in shifting behavior. Link to comment
moshe_levy Posted October 23, 2015 Share Posted October 23, 2015 Same here. 2015 out of service yesterday fully updated. No change at all, in anything. -MKL Link to comment
Larsman Posted October 24, 2015 Share Posted October 24, 2015 I was just updated yesterday. I feel the shifting is smoother, especially at lower rpms and between 2nd and 3rd which I always avoided due to clunkiness. No change in screen function. Oil level indicator is a little more fussy though. Bike must now be extremely level for it to register. Charging read 14.3 for the first time in a year. It usually tops out alternating between 14.1 and 14.2 when running. Link to comment
