Since the usual answer is "Search for it" and that means wading through tons of comments by everyone since we're all such talkative folks here, I thought I'd assemble some of the very useful links posted on this forum for those of us interested in tinkering (and save the next person some time).
I give you my Tuono Bookmarks.

Reset the Service Light:
Enter code 13432 in the diagnostics menu and scroll down to reset service light option.
After entering the above code, this is also where you can change miles/km.

Owners Manual (Courtesy of Aprilia):
http://www.serviceaprilia.com/public/lumAprilia/
Select your model on the left, the Gen 1's seem to be listed under Tuono 1000 R and the Gen 2's model years seem to all be listed under the Factory link...

Excel spreadsheet

The Excel spreadsheet for torque-specs doesn´t work:

Not Found
The requested URL /Templates/torque specs.xls was not found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

That's too bad. I didn't post that stuff so the fix is beyond me.
If anyone takes the time to recreate it I'm sure they'll post it back on here somewhere.
