Gap Flasher Issues

[Motorhead]

Ok...then it’s not just me lol...

But apparently my sled goes riding by itself now cuz I have an extra 560 miles on mine too while it was sitting in the trailer. lmao!!

Left my sled in Maine cuz my next trip is a couple weeks away(I have the flasher with me)...I wonder how many more miles will be on it when I return????? Lol!

Maybe your flasher is logging your dream mileage of those beautiful, smooth, perfect county trails !
At least they are still rideable, correct?

Lol...was up from the 27-31st...put on 426 miles, was pretty decent considering the beating they took on the 21st!!

Very good now with two new systems hitting them in the last week!! They’re back in big business!!

Heading up in a couple weeks again.

Be time to adjust the valves before you know it

Lmao...exactly!!

Gotta be the GAP software messing with the cluster instrumentation’s....

I just wish I could get my phone to even connect to the flasher. Kind of think my flasher might be dinked. Will find out when I talk to Dave more on Monday.

1. Did you get logged in?
2. Do you have good internet and wi-fi?
3. Have you done this before that you know the steps?
4. Key on, flasher plugged in properly, the phone should see it with gap app.
5. Have you restarted your phone? This must be done too now.

Ya I logged into my account. Have turned the phone on and off, deleted and reloaded the app 10 times. Reloaded firmware to flasher 3 times. Tried downloading app to two other phones and even they can’t see flasher when trying to connect. Ignition has always been on, even tried with sled running. Sled battery is fully charged, internet is good. Never had any issues last year connecting. Flasher did stay plugged into the sled all year and battery fully drained and would not take charge, had to buy a new battery. Should of tried connecting to the flasher before I did any firmware updates. Talked to Dave earlier today, were going to troubleshoot through it Monday afternoon, he has said it’s not totally uncommon to hear of a flasher gone bad. Guess we will see.

When you’re downloading the firmware are you getting the prompt to connect your device and going through that step?

I asked the dealer I bought my sled from,
"when should I set the valves"?? His reply " This thing will be junk before you have to worry about that."
Second ride on it today, tach recall hasn't worked since flash and today default HP stopped working. On a good note, this thing has some balls and is a blast to ride!!!! I'm sure the bugs will get worked out.

What do glitches in aftermarket software have to do with the build quality of the sled?

I was just responding to staggs comment about the valves...I thought it was funny. What the dealer ment by "junk" was actually implying the sled being wore out before I have to set valves. I also mentioned the flash issues I'm experiencing.

It was a joke because his sled is putting on miles without him riding it.

186 miles total on sled now, hour meter reads only .6hrs. This thing runs great but I didn't think I was going that fast....
