    Will the ODO reading be reset to 00000 kms? Did you confirm about this from the service center folks?

      Yes, if they replace your console the new ODO will be 0.0Kms.

      I had got it replaced on my previous 390 (out of warranty) and it costed me only 7K, but this one costs 18K and in no ways I'm paying for that. So if its flickering, I might as well get it replaced now.

        Yes, I am aware of that in Old pre-2017 390's it'd get reset to 0 kms Orange/Black LED console.

        But my question is regarding the new color LCD TFT console. I remember reading on the same thread someone mentioned that going forward 2017+ D390, the ODO reading is also stored in ECU aswell and SVC has tool that can flash/write back the old ODO kms reading from ECU onto the new TFT which was replaced.

        Never got any confirmed response from the owners on this thread who got it replaced under warranty.

          Hope this chain gives better life.
          Irrespective of what chain you use, don't forget the timely lubrication procedure. A well lubricated and slacked chain will always last longer, run smoother, and reduce good amount of transmission losses.

          Good luck.

          Once upon a time, a guy asked a girl 'Will you marry me?'
          The girl said, 'NO!'


          And the guy lived happily ever after and rode motorcycles and watched sport on a big screen TV, went fishing and surfing, and played golf a lot, and drank beer and scotch and had tons of money in the bank and left the toilet seat up and farted whenever he wanted.

            the pre 2017 models also have the odo reading stored on the ecu. i've seen the odo reading show up on their diagnostic tool when connected to my 2014 duke (the reading was around 3% less than what was shown on the odo. never got a proper answer as to why the discrepancy.

            but i doubt if its possible to reflash a new console with the odo reading.

You can't help it, you can either get it changed under warranty or try to forget and live with it. It won't cause a problem per se.

                      Why not! You have all the liberty to try for it, go ahead and talk with your service manager.
