Hi guys, real quick one, how do you get the UDB to work on the bike?

I go to the menu, hold the down button till it says 'USB' above the milage counter.

However, when ever I place the USB in my computer it says there is no data on the stick...

Am I missing something?

After you turn it on, you have to start recording data.

Hit the high beam (pass) button to start, and again to reset (new lap).

I have had a DDA fail on me (replaced under warranty), however first try to format your DDA (from the dash menu) there may be an issue with the unit that can be cleared.

I also note you say you have a 1098S, the 2007 and 2008 model bikes used an earlier version of the DDA. There is an incompatibility for this DDA in that the USB won't mount on some more modern computers (go to the Prosa site for downloads to supposedly cure this) - in my case I never resolved this on my 2008 1098R and therefore I just use an ancient laptop to download the data from the DDA.

Finally there is a couple of formats for the data on a DDA and again your bike might not be like the settings your DDA is formatted to - again reformat the DDA from your bike.

The DDA has been a hobby, I got it to work on my Mac so I'm interested here as I would like to know your bikes specifics. For example my 2008 1098R has traction control however the DDA does not record that channel but a 2009 1198S does so there have been changes however I don't know if the changes are from the DDA or the bike (i.e. if I use a more modern DDA will I be able to record the traction control channel) so please tell me what DDA you have (the original - 2MB or is it a recent purchase 4MB).

Nope, still not working... Just says no files were found when I put the USB in???

I hit the highbeam button just before setting off then again when I finished the ride, it was a good 45 mins of riding.

You are on about the high beam flash button right? Not the switch to put it on perm?

The DDA is activated (stated and stopped) by a menu on the Instrument Panel, the high-beam flash button only marks laps on a DDA trace that is being recorded.
