Author Message   Highlander51 Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 05:09 pm:        Hi all, I'm new to the forum and I am buying a 08 1125 this week. The dealer says all updates have been done, but is there a way to verify this so I'm not just taking his word. Also the price is $8,995 plus tax and lic. and I'm trying to get the first service thrown in. Is this about what these bikes are going for? The bike is new. Thanks, Mike   Bikejunky Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 05:15 pm:        He can give you a print out of the SWR on the bike showing all recalls as complete. Also the dealer can give you a print out from the Digital tech that shows the reflash information. The most current flash for the 08 is calibration ID: M3HUS04z and Part Number:Y0152.1AM   Pariah Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 05:15 pm:        H-D/Buell maintains a record of every bike's update history by VIN. You could simply ask for this record at any dealer's service department--- they will list all updates that have been performed...   Highlander51 Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 05:18 pm:        Thanks, thats what I was hoping to find out. Very informative forum you have here. Thanks again, Mike   Zac4mac Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 07:00 pm:        Junky - true H-Dnet shows 04Z for 08, and 11Z for 09. However, anecdotally, 05Z and 12Z have been seen. Z   Bikejunky Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 09:20 pm:        Zac: That was a typo, thanks for picking it up. Should have been 05z   Bikejunky Posted on Sunday, May 10, 2009 - 09:21 pm:        Part number was correct for 05z   Zac4mac Posted on Monday, May 11, 2009 - 07:31 am:        Nate - that p/n for the blank ECM has been the same since initial release. Same number in my 08R parts book, one of the first printed... in fact, that p/n is "pending obsolete" now. The flash doesn't have a p/n AFAIK. BTW - Welcome to BadWeB, Mike. Hope you enjoy your 1125, I love mine. Z   Bikejunky Posted on Monday, May 11, 2009 - 12:54 pm:        Z speculation here, but do you think this pending obsolete is because the replacement ecm will be programmed with the finalized calibration or because there may be a recall coming for it???   Zac4mac Posted on Monday, May 11, 2009 - 02:11 pm:        Dunno, all I know is the ECM in all the 1125s so far is the same part. Maybe the soon-to-be 2010s will have a new ECM. If so, it will most likely be more advanced. Maybe just a different vendor or packaging, HD obsoletes parts for a variety of reasons. Retrofit? No idea. The IC was updated at least once and it does retrofit. Like a stock forecast, past performance does not guarantee future performance. Z
