You guys are all a bunch of arm-holes.

My 2013 BMW R1200RT had an oil change minder that, unless you had a special gizmo (which I did), you'd have to take to the dealer to reset. So why reset it (use "trip B" or whatever snarky response)? Because it would cause a warning light to turn on that couldn't be turned off any other way if I recall correctly. Does this new one work like that? Wouldn't surprise me given how HD money grubs at every opportunity (like a $900 first oil change and "bolt torquing" ritual inspection).

There is nothing that comes up on the screen, at least for the 1k service interval there wasn't. $900? Hopefully that was a snarky response because I'd feel bad for anyone dumb enough to pay that. I only paid $250 last month.

So the newer bikes have an oil change reminder? Or just two trip meters?

It’s 2 trip meters, A and B.

I typically use A to measure distance between gas stops. I use B to measure overall trip distance.

Hi, We talking about HD's here?
BTW, on our Alpha Romeo, the oil change reminder can't be reset except by dealer. So...I know the feeling.
