There is a number on the sensor, the dealer needs that to synch it to your bike, so copy it down before you put the tire on the rim.They have to do it on their computer so I doubt if you can do it yourself. I had 2 replaced in my front tire, only about 5 minutes for them to synch it to the bike, the seat comes off and they hook up a cable and punch the number of the unit into the computer and your on your way.
