I don't know about "powerful" but it can read codes, reset the check engine light, synchronize TPS and Idle speed control, show volts, RPM and a buncha other stuff. The big convenient thing is removing codes and turning that check engine off conveniently.

Is it worth 200 USD or whatever they want these days? Probably not. You can do nearly everything without it.

I've heard this same message before.  My question is: How do you learn to use it?  Will users here tell us how it works?

Each model service manual has a large section on how to use this thing. It is powered by the bike as long as the ignition is turned on. There is very little you can change with this device. You cannot reprogram.

Don't know about getting on in Europe (or Denmark) but you can download and print one for a price from manualslib.com....cyclepedia has them in the US for about 40 USD.

Are you sure that they got the brand new ones? I checked at cyclepedia and i seems like a 50R are different in the US and in EU. The US version is more Agility-like than the EU-version

By now they SHOULD but whether they do is another matter. Check and see. However, browse last year's model to see the similarities/differences. Bet they are the same. The system is most likely identical and codes SHOULD BE the same.

Can you use your Fi Tool on the Agility 50, or is too old?

No, not on any machine with no ECU. There is nothing to read and no provision to plug the tool.

Is there actually a connector for the tool on your machine?
