Yep I found this on my tuono too. Cable was $100 so like you I bought one off ebay £6 and crimped it. Works perfect

[@TheEarlster]

Thanks Dean “Birky” Birkumshaw,

[@primus4379]

Thanks for the tip SteveC and Thanks Earlster for bringing this to everyone' attention...On another note, I learned autoblipper will be an add-on upgrade to our '16s SteveC

[@TheEarlster]

+PRIMUS - yep I heard the same thing too but it come standard on 2017 - I read that in MCN www.motorcyclenews.com/news/new-bikes/2016/october/revised-aprilia-rsv-rf-and-tuono-v4-for-2017/

[@klaus-juergenkessel3916]

Thanks a lot ! I just bought a new 2016 RSV4 RF and your video and infos are very helpful !

[@TheEarlster]

+Klaus-Juergen Kessel - thanks, you will definitely love it,

[@GareyCooperdude]

Anyone out there found this on the '17 Tuono? Nice video! Very helpful.

[@Lockitinlow]

Garey Cooper I just got mine. Hoping it does. Won't know until I take the screen off. Waiting on the mra screen to come out still.

[@MotoQuickShifter]

Awesome

[@nigelmitchell351]

My 2008 RSV factory twin has the same plug under the seat, which can be connected to OBD2.

[@TheEarlster]

wow Aprilia was definitely thinking ahead of time 👌

[@syk9855]

And people were complaining about the analog RPM Gauge when they actually had a full touch screen display

[@Mantas805]

Hi again The Earlster, I want to ask, if I will buy one of USB support kit's only without additional Bluetooth ECU, will my phone read info from the bike with v4mp app and USB cable only? My dealer can't answer to that question. Thanks!

[@TheEarlster]

Hey Mantas80513, unfortunately not, as far as I'm aware the USB kit is for power to your smart phone device only, Therefore, this does not interface to the ECU for V4MP.

[@abhishekkhullar707]

I have the limited edition rsvr rf 2015, I will try to find this cable My question was, do you think we can upgrade to tft screen of 2017 model to 2015 model ?

[@TheEarlster]

Good question, to be honest I do not know, but it would be an expensive upgrade because OEM Aprilia TFT Dashboard - 2D000278 is listed $708.68. I sure there will be other items you would need too,

[@121986adam]

G'day mate, I was just wondering what phone holder you've got there? Cheers

[@TheEarlster]

it was an aluminium gorilla glass metal case cover full-body purchased from Amazon, sadly Amazon do not sell them anymore but there are similar type on sale

[@Shimmoda]

Is this just on the RF? I have a 2013 factory

[@TheEarlster]

+The Muscle Bike, it's on the Tuono, RSV4 RR and RF models but I heard it's from year 2015 and above - this still need to be verified.

[@Shimmoda]

I guess I'll open her up this winter and check it out

[@TheEarlster]

Yeah sure mate, ps we're just starting winter here - not good :-(

[@Mantas805]

Hello Sir, have you bought original aprilia USB cable wich you provided in the video? What I need to buy from Aprilia dealer to make that V4 mp app to work? Many thanks. :-)

[@TheEarlster]

Hi Mantas805, I made my USB up. However, my mate bought the alterative USB KIT (plug and play) details on description for his Tuono v4r and it function fine, we both used sugru mouldable glue to hold down the USB in place. My local Aprilia does not stock the original Aprilia USB cable. Regarding the V4-MP app, I got my dealership to ordered and installed Aprilia Multimedia Platform Bluetooth ECU (no installation charge), the part number is 2S000088 and depending on your bike you also need a dedicated install kit which is sold separately, RSV4RR/RF requires plus installation kit 2S000580 and the Tuono 1100 requires installation kit 2S000656.

[@Mantas805]

+The Earlster, thanks for your answer. So basically if I install only USB cable kit, my V4 app won't work.. Shit, I was thinking that it will cost not too much...

[@carlton2913]

Earlster were u able to locate usb for the 17 model? im looking but I cant find it thanks

[@TheEarlster]

@Carlton Davis it's bolted on the LHS of dash sealed with a dust cap,

[@carlton2913]

I found it, Also what support are u using for your I phone

[@TheEarlster]

Cool 👍, the phone on this video I made it from a spare water resistant shockproof aluminum gorilla iPhone 5c glass case bolted and glued onto a RAM Mounts UNPKD RAM 2 X 1.7 - The stem is also from an adjustable RAM Motorcycle Fork Stem Mount - I also use a ram mount x grip for other phones, the RAM Mounts UNPKD RAM 2 X 1.7 is useful for the GoPro for those tracks days

[@richardharris9723]

I have the exact bike, do they all come with multi media? Thanks

[@TheEarlster]

No it's optional extra on our bikes, I believe it's now included on 2017 models

[@richardharris9723]

The Earlster Thanks, I purchased mine when it was 3 months old so I'm not sure if have it, are there any indications? And another question how did you secure the USB socket?

[@TheEarlster]

Hey Richard, if it’s the same model as mine than I would be very surprised if this is not hidden away in the console, and to secure in place I used sugru - works well,

[@yourealwaysright6770]

2019 factory I could not find it,anyone confirm if it’s present

[@TheEarlster]

it was present on a demo 2019 RSV4 factory 1100 I had a few weeks ago

[@massgass9131]

is this on the 2017 model rr??

[@TheEarlster]

It comes as standard on the 2017.

[@massgass9131]

as standard where?? in that clump of wires??

[@TheEarlster]

The USB cable, Housing and USB port are now fitted as standard on the left side of the dash on the 2017 model.

[@TheEarlster]

@Phillup DaVoid - I'm referring to the 2017 RSV4 RF model, not sure what bike you have, if you do not see it, prehaps it's not fitted and the USB cable is hidden away,

[@TheEarlster]

@Phillup DaVoid looks like the 2017 model RR is hidden beneath the windscreen, not sure why Aprilia did not include it.

[@ShamanWS6]

Not hidden on the newer RF. It's right under the dash on the left with a cap over the port.

[@TheEarlster]

+Steve C, thanks for sharing that info

[@paulbritton1436]

My 2016 RF has a port..........

[@TheEarlster]

+Paul Britton, thanks mate, I bought my RF in early 2016 but mine was released 2015 so I think Aprilia must of made it option extra or missed it out - lol
