And even if you didn't have spoked wheels, an RDC, a.k.a. TPM, retrofit is impossible because Motorrad will not issue the required software to your local dealer. They will, however, allow for an ASC retrofit, which also requires a software update. Why the inconsistency? I'd guess liability.

As with most things R12R, think I learned about this from Ambassador Eilenberger.

...provided, however, that your bike is late enough to accept it. My '07 was made just before the cutoff, so although I'd buy ASC in an instant, it's not available to me.

Forgive me, but I am confused. I guess it is the lack of a christian upbringing. What is an RDC? and, for that matter, a TPM, or an ASC? I am on the QT here... I need to know ASAP, the VP of my OSC is PO'd because my VIP card was not OK'd. This is FUBAR! Lee
