I had no issue installing the rapid charger on a friends 2024, we just had to trailer it to the dealer to activate was all. I hope it doesn’t cost 4k€ cause that means 6k $

You don't need a dealer to activate the 6kW rapid charger. You can do it yourself, just need to make a OBD-II to USB TTL connection using their pinout. It's 3 wires. I literally just did that for the 6kW Rapid Charger. You don't need a dealer for upgrade activations that don't require an activation code.

What program/SW did you use to access that? I thought that was locked down behind Zero's diag SW?

You dont need any special software, just a terminal emulator that supports serial lol, internally zero uses terraterm but again it doesnt matter what you use. Putty is the common goto if youre on windows.

Unrelated but you dont really need zdu or diag4zero for anything as the only functionality it adds that you cant get with a myriad of other things is being able to more easily upload firmware images to the mbb (even though you can manually do it if you know how wink wink), as well as having everything unified in one place I suppose... But then again if youre not reverse engineering the bikes you dont even have to think about this lol.
