Just had the recall done and my software version went from 011_007_035 to 014_015_020 which is quite a jump.

Has anyone noticed any changes to any of the bikes functionality? Any screen changes, icon changes, etc?
 
My R18 B was updated to S/W Version: 014_013_030

Didn't notice any improvements or deficiencies, other than I had to reload my connection to my phone for music and navigation functionality.

I had 2 bikes done. No issues initially. Since getting my bikes back, I discovered the Bobbers charging port no longer works (near the reverse lever). I know it is not the Optima 4 charger at fault, as that still works on the Bagger. The Bobber will go back next week to get that looked at.
 
Maybe take a look at the plug on the back of the charger port; the charger has to be disassembled, in order to work on the Reverse.

Both of my bike's charging ports work on my bikes after the Reverse Recall.

I did take the cover off for a quick look, but could not see anything disconnected. The dealer is only 3km away, so no big drama getting the bike there.
 
I noticed my 2021 Classic started to backfire on overrun after the software update.
After about 1,000 miles it now does it far less.
I’ve had a few back fires as well since the update. But I also re-loaded the BT Moto tune…
