Harley-Davidson Skyline OS Update-important improvements for the navigation system

New update brings zoom function and more

Harley-Davidson has released a new software update for the Skyline OS Navigation system. One of the most important innovations is the possibility of zooming and out in the card on the left handlebar fittings at the push of a button. This function improves the usability and increases safety while driving. Because you no longer have to go in or to zoom in with your fingers.

Zoom function for better navigation

The new zoom function enables a quick adjustment of the map standard-a feature that many drivers have missed for a long time. Flexible navigation is particularly essential on longer tours or in unknown regions. With just one tip on the handlebar fittings, you can now enlarge or reduce the view without cumbersome navigating through menus.

Right to have updates carried out by the dealer?

The update for the Skyline OS can be downloaded via the Harley-Davidson website's service area. However, there are some hurdles:

• Long installation time : The update process can take a lot of time, there is a range of 45 minutes to 2 hours.
• Discourse : If the installation is interrupted, problems can occur.
• Necessary power supply : The battery must be full or loaded during the update.

If you are not familiar with the installation, you should better have the update carried out by an authorized Harley Davidson dealer.

Skyline OS is clear and modern

Since its introduction, the Skyline OS has proven itself as one of Harley-Davidson's best motorcycle systems. It impresses with a clear, glare -free display and intuitive operation. It is particularly commendable that Harley-Davidson regularly releases updates to further improve the software.

There were always problems with radio reception in individual models. For me, the navigation failed once when I wanted to change the route in the belly of a ferry, which was probably with the limited reception. What really bothered was the lack of the zoom function. Personally, I find the skyline OS very successful and very modern, it is the course of time.

Conclusion

The new software update makes the navigation system even better and more user-friendly. The zoom function is a welcome addition that increases driving comfort and security. Even if the update can be downloaded itself and can be pulled up via a USB-C stick itself, it is often the better choice to hire the dealer.
