1. Somebody else answered this, so I won't repeat what he said. It's the pits that you can't program it, but one more thing mother Honda could easily improve.
2. The BT45 on my old Wing had 32,800 on it when I traded and it looked better then my Stone on the new '13 at 12K. I've got 14K+ on it now, and I won't go any distance next spring until I get it swapped. Will definitely go with the Battle ax again. I had the BT45 mounted forward (normal direction) and got along great. I know some have gone backwards for the "torque" in braking, but I was concerned about riding in rain with it backwards.
