On the 1250GS, does GSAP work in all ride modes? The owners manual does not address this specifically so it leads me to believe that it works in all modes.
I have a '22 1250 GSA with Dynamic Pro etc. It works in all modes but cruise control doesn't work in Enduro.On the 1250GS, does GSAP work in all ride modes? The owners manual does not address this specifically so it leads me to believe that it works in all modes.
This is very valuable information. I did not know it automatically blipped the throttle. I took mine out of Dynamic Pro and put it in Road mode trying to get rid of the "blipping". It was cauisng some problems since I enter the apex pretty hot and don't want it increasing the RPMs at a time when I need another 1 or 2/10ths of a second to scrub off speed. Frankly, it scares the $hit out of me.I've been practicing with the shift assist on my first ever GS, a 2018 Rallye.
It works really well on twisty technical roads.
It automatically blips the throttle on downshifts then allows you to get back on the throttle quickly.
I find upshifting works better with a little higher RPM and an aggressive upshift. Be careful not to preload the shift lever.
Yes...All ride modes. Cruise Control will not work in enduro mode.On the 1250GS, does GSAP work in all ride modes? The owners manual does not address this specifically so it leads me to believe that it works in all modes.

Thanks KYwoodsrider.
Yeah, I just use the clutch for smooth 1-2 and even 2-3 shifts. You learn where it's appropriate to use and where it's not.Coming to this thread a bit late. On my '22 GSA, using the shift assist between 1st and 2nd, the front wheel wants to lift up and that's with "normal" throttle. After I get more comfortable on the bike, I can see myself engaging in some spirited upshifting while tugging on the handlebars.
