Gear shift assist Pro on GSA

[Lord Knormoer]

Ai, julle se daai gear assist is wild? Wel ek het myne bestel en sit hom Donderdag op. Hoop hy is lekker.........

Jy sal dit enjoy
Soos LKM gese het nie n moet nie maar fok dis great fun
Soos n bike is, nie n moet nie maar great fun

Goeie grot!! Dis lekker, het hom vandag laat opsit. Het vinnig gesnap op watse revs ek kan oorskakel want n ou plaas Suzi 490PE ry jy anyway sonder n clutch. Ja so vanaf eerste na tweede is n bietjie van n whiplash (klein bietjie) maar verder op lekker. En nie eers te praat van die klank nie, veral met my akro op!!!

Even as jy afgear, gee hy so automatiese blib, dit klink baie nice. Baie lekker speelding!

Welllll, bit the bullet and ordered the gear shift assist.  BMW said 2 days to get the enabling code from Germany, so today I popped in and they had everything ready.  Had my coffee (no muffin, shame on you Zambesi!!  ) and after 20 minutes the mechanic came back to me.

"No, sorry, no can do.  Since you bought the very first generation of LC GS, you have no harness to make this work.  You will have to get a new harness that has been specially covered in whale foreskin which will cost a fortune."

So much for early adoption, thanks BMW.

I have a Gear Shift Assist Pro … a left GS Pro Enduro boot … try it they work … no whale foreskin needed

Ok, so I had my GSA Pro installed not long after they became available in the Western Cape. And why I am mentioning it is purely to state that I have had it for quite some time and not even once have I had an issue with it.

So I took my bike in for the 20000 km service two weeks ago and I was told that new software will be downloaded on the bike which directly relates to the GSA Pro.

I was a bit sceptic as I strongly believe in if something works, leave it alone. However I was pleasently surprised when I got back in the saddle and started shifting, wow I dont think I can even change gears as smoothly by using the clutch.

Now I am impressed. Thank you BMW.

the new QS software is brilliant, QS even better, faster and smoother.  absolutely fantastic.

i cant believe the difference the upgrade has made.

oh so, so smooth, its like a new gearbox!!

[Lord Knormoer]

I'll be upgrading mine later today...looking forward to the experience

Did you have it done?

Are you happy?

What was the cost for the upgrade?

[Lord Knormoer]

Works great

[BikerJan]

Did BMW contact you guys to get the upgrade done, or was it done during a normal service?

[K-9]

it's not a five minute job.

they just do it next time your bike is in the shop for a service.

it takes up the work bench and it takes a while, due to the fact that all the bikes software is reloaded, so takes an hour or two.

then they run the bike until the fan starts.  (bike must be at running temp), they then run through the gears a few times on the bench.

no cost.

My GSA is due for its 10 k service any time now.

I am glad to hear it even gets better
