Option to turn the self-cancelling indicators off: Hi Peter, sorry for the delay: I have just had a conversation with Herr Lindner from the BMW press office in Berlin, and he has confirmed 100% that the 2023 spec GS and GSA will have the option to turn the self-cancelling indicators off.

Hi Carl. Thank you for an excellent channel of knowledge! I have a comment on your demo of how to adjust the heat level on the grips of the 1250 GSA. I have a 2023 model but without seat heating. On those GSA`s that only have heated grips it is not possible to set an individual heat level on the grips with the “short cut access”. You can only select pre set level 1 & 2 and “OFF”. I checked with my BMW dealer and they confirmed this.(I do have the latest software upgrade). May be you can mention this on a later video? Again thank you for your tutorial skills!

Good Evening Carl, had interesting conversation with my BMW dealer this morning as was enquiring about having my software updated to that in your video. I was told that BMW Motorrad has now instructed its dealer network not to offer software updates as a matter of course? Said updates are only to be offered to resolve a specific issue. Apparently the way it was sold to me - their rationale being that said updates cause more issues than they solve?
@justthewayitis2 жыл бұрын
Hi Jon good evening. Might I gently suggest, that your dealer service department is just being awkward, the real reason is possibly… The software update takes between 2 and 2.5 hours, and depending on where “physically” in the workshop the PC update equipment is located, (normally its located in one specific work bay) dealers do not (if they are busy or its holiday season) like to take up this space for 2.5hours with none profit generating work, like a free software update. I think if you started to experience connectivity issues between your devices (TFT, Navi and phone), they would do the update. Wink / wink / smile… The software updates do improve things. Kindest Regards, Carl

Hi, I think some BMW dealers are aware of this feature and do inform new owners, but its clear some do not know about this. This is why I released a video about this tip. I do like the dashboard but the one thing that could be much better, is an easy simple way to reset the standard trip meter. Best wishes Carl

Carl, i have the same software you have when i bought my S1000XR 4 mos ago. i have too many problems like cardo, TFT and iphone. music constantly disconnects. i insisted my bmw tech to do a running check and they found out there is a new SW updates! i am rocking this version for over 2 weeks now and all my issues were gone specially with music. no more cutting audio. the software version is 023_11_060. ask for a running check because they will tell you overnight! it will say at first 2hrs for the update but when it rolls it will take only 20mins for the update.

Hi Ad78, brilliant feedback, I actually have to call my dealer to speak to them this week, so I will ask about the new software update. Thankyou 👍Carl
