Has anyone seen an update past July 2020? I have a 2019 Goldwing. I was able to do updates as they came out but it seems they stopped issuing them. I don't see a way to get them even as a paid option. Am I missing something? THANKS

I hope updates ARE available on a regular basis.
If you're in an area where there are new roads/new construction, or changes to existing roads then your nav system will not be much good as time goes by.

They said free updates for ten years. They didn't say how many updates you will get. So my guess is the next update will be in 2028 then 2029 and the 2030. That way they satisfy the requirements for the people that bough 2018s. Then they will come out yearly to satisfy 2019,2020 etc.

I never saw that part, where did you see that? Seems like time to start fussing. I don't want to pay for map updates but it seems odd that it isn't even an option. Garmin doesn't list anything other than cars.

When the 2018 wing was introduced, that was one of the features they were talking about.

I think I signed up to be notified when updates come out. I THINK I signed up. But I’m not holding my breath….

I've pinged them multiple times via Facebook and all I've been able to do is get confirmation that is the correct link. Gonna continue to call them out and hope to get someone's attention. Might be good to add to add to my FB post...get the counts up? I was not able to find my previous post so I just re-posted it.

Only 4 1/2 years til the next update. So just be patient.

Sounds like someone "Waiting for Godot." Get a world class GPS (Garmin Zumo XT) instead, and bypass the helplessly pathetic Honda onboard system. No update will ever save poor programming.

I'm still a little jealous of my ridin' buddy's Road Glide with a TOUCH SCREEN nav!

I mostly use google maps on my phone but it's nice to have the built-in and hey, I paid for the dang thing so it doesn't seem unreasonable to expect them to properly update it. Yes, the programming is pretty bad, can't even use all 4 cursor keys to navigate the keyboard. I use the online trip planner and then import it via usb key...works ok that way. Not sure why they didn't implement it as touch.

There is a new navigation update available on the Honda motorcycle website.

Looks like the only update is for the map which is better than no update at all. Thanks for posting!

yes indeed... not sure I had any part in that but I've been bitching at them for awhile. I've been checking that before each of these posts so they just did it in the last few days. excellent.

Just went for a quick ride after updating the bike. Sorry to say, Honda still hasn't given us a mute for the nav that doesn't kill the infotainment system. If you have a route programmed in and the nav volume set to 0 the system still muted the music.

watching my bike load, the files indicated that the previous ones had some updates too. Only file #9 was the GPS map. A few have indicated that bluetooth connection to there cardo and sena units has improved. My guess a few bug updates and tweaks were done without Honda admitting to the issues.

I've been waiting for this FOREVER!!
