Battery voltage reads higher than Charging voltage

Using a the newer GS-911 wifi (mfg date 6/27/18 - sticker on back) on the mobile app, all software is current and checked for updates each time I plug it in. Bike is a 2013 F800GS (not adventure).

OK, understood so it is a BMS-K ECU model, the the WiFi firmware for Web Interface should be 0.254-0.175-0.152 & the PC App 1912.1
How up to date is the iLevel in the bike ?, autoscan will tell you, the latest I have seen for the K024's is K024-18-07-500

Doesn't look like it's been touched since the bike was built Autoscan Report
Aside from maybe an incorrectly reported value, is there any reason I should spend the money to have my dealer update this? Benefits?
WayneC:
The voltages aspect is likely that the voltages are derived by interrogating the ECU's rather than directly reading from the socket, others may be able to confirm that & I would not be concerned by it
Re firmware in ECU's, BMW are not always forthcoming to Dealers on what firmware updates are actually doing but they can be improvements & bug fixes to program code or market specific data, coding & diagnostics capability etc, see the OSV, FSV, MCV, values in the autoscan
History has shown an update can transform a bike with better starting hot or cold & improve engine response at different rpm's etc. Too often Dealers were told dont update unless the owner complains re a specific problem so in general terms updating is worthwhile, it looks like on BMS-KP there are a couple of updates for your K72 model, I cant comment on the other ECU's

Thanks for the info.
