easiest way to tell, remove switch from under clutch lever, put the meatal tab over both arms and tape up tightly so both arms on switch are closed. then tie switch up somwehwere out the way. you'll lose launch control+pit lane limiter ability, but it will show you if it's the switch adjustment...

sounds like your clutch switch not working/adjusted properly, or excess play in the gear linkage

it's you typical cheap chinese stuff you get from ebay generally, but cheaper, i've ordered a few bits to see delivery wise, came very quickly, nothing major, just some electrical tools+bits, about £30 worth. cheaper than ebay, delelvery not that much different, think took 9 days, with full...

awesome bikes, had a few over the years road+track. brakes are defiantley the weak point, and the rear shock. newer blade calipers,lines etc was always a popular upgrade. plugs 1+4 are a proper pain in the arse to swap, other than that, easy bike to work on

sorry, read it as gear leaning, not learning. tbh unless you've changed the q/shifter/blipper you shouldn't need to reprogramme the gears, i've never had to do it and had 5 gen3 's, with different shifter modules, even did a back to back with a HM shifter+ alpha shifter, but never needed to do...

just google phil crowe racing, hes based nr louth/cadwell park

theottle calibration can be done with a gs911 unit, as can a lot of the fault finding/fixing, but cant do anything regarding tuning. you can also doa manual throttklel calibration, without any other device connected. ignition on, open throttle fully for a fw seconds, close throttle fully, turn...

easiest way to tell if it's unlocked is if you dont have the "user" option on the rider modes

you can set it up without it, but need someone that can get into the s/w, phil crowe can do it in the UK. they are discontinued now, so cant buy new, they do come up on ebay/FB from time to time (theres 1 on FB now as it happens) but are getting silly expensive due to scarcity. are you sure it's...

if it's showing an error code, then what is it? no need to replicate as it shouold be stored in the ECU. the dealer should/will have seen it surely

why? because this is a bmw s1000rr forum, and i do have a lot of experience with said bikes. So, your saying as i dont have 1, or any bmw at the moment for that matter, that i shouldn't post anymore?

does it? so it changes down/blips even on partial throttle opening? never heard of that before, but i dont have 1 so will take your word for it.

check the clutch switch under the clutch lever is doing what it is supposed to, as in the tabs are closing/opening properly

it shouldn't shift down with any throttle applied, for the blip to work needs to be 100% closed

tbh, without a comparison you couldn't say as you dont know the trade off between each approach
