Bought my PWX from Lennys (a 2018 BH bike), not sure if it needs to be taken to a BH/Yamaha dealer for a firmware update. I know these updates are common on other manufacturers; not sure about Yamaha.
Does Yamaha PWX need firmware updates?

Congrats on your new BH.... glad to help if you can answer a few questions: What model did you get? Where are you located?

Are you asking whether your new bike needs an update or whether a bike you’ve had for awhile might need an update? I would imagine the shop would have run all updates before sending out a new bike (mine did). I ride a Specialized Creo (delivered in Feb) and this week was notified by way of their app (Mission Control) that the bike needed both a display and a motor software update. The bike had to go to a Specialized dealer for them to do the update. The bike was purchased from a dealer in Arizona and the update was done by a dealer in Colorado, no problems or requirement that I go to the dealer where purchased.

I have the same BH model and have not yet updated the software... any dealer that does Yamaha service should be able to upload the latest version.

From the Yamaha website, in the FAQ section: Question: Can I change or update the drive unit software? Answer: Software or firmware updates are not necessary.
