Does anyone here have any experience with the "torque" app ?
I've got an ongoing issue with the ABS on my KTM690 and now the engine management light has come out to play!
I've seen one video on youtube recommending this dongle

Apparently it is definitely worth paying a little more for one like this?
Who's used it, what do you think?

Re: Torque app + Dongles
I have both.
I paid a lot less for the dongle many years ago and it has a different sticker on it.
I've used it on all my cars/vans since I bought it to read/reset codes and it worked fine for the same on my 2014 Tiger 800.
I have the paid for version of Torque, iirc originally you could only read the codes with the free version and delete them with the paid version, but that was years ago and might have changed.
It all only works with standard OBD functionality. You can get 'addins' that provide specific manufacture functionality, but not for bikes and only for a few brands of cars.
It will read ECU related stuff, but you'll probably find that it can't read/delete ABS information as that's not covered by the OBDCII standards and controlled by a separate module to the ECU.
