what i mean is the dealers should be capable of doing the reset for free. I think they just hook up through the DDA connection under the seat...

Dealers.

Free.

Dont see those two words together too often  .

Nah, I mean if you have good relationship with your pet dealer then perhaps they'd do it for free to keep things sweet. And maybe once in a while - as you  found in Italy - some dealers will just be helpful for no payment.  But in my experience if you didnt pay them the big dollars to service your bike, they aint gonna look too generously at resetting anything for nothing.  And frankly I wouldnt expect it to be otherwise.  Doesnt matter if its just a 2 minute task.  They bought the hardware and have the know-how, we got no right to expect to benefit from that for nothing.  Nice though if its offered.

Awesomeness!  It's about time.

I wonder if the pro version that Guzzitech sells includes the Siemens software?
