1250 GS TE recall

[The Burpster]

Am I the only one to have received a recall notice for EMS to be reprogrammed to allow for rapid changes in engine/drivetrain speeds?

Or is this old news?

Old news, but BMW seems to be sending out letters even to those who have had the work done.

Old news however I received my recall letter last week!

Old news, but according to the letter the software update takes 30 minutes. According to Bahnstormer it can take 6 hours. Mine's booked in for September when the service is due. They will lend me a bike and do the software update overnight. Let's hope the weather is good then as it's a 250 mile round trip on consecutive days.

Software update is an overnight job. It’s not 30 minutes

I got told it may take up to 8 hours but they won’t know till they plug the bike in.

No biggie for me as I’m retired and they’re giving me a bike but I could see it being a pain for some.

Had mine updated in March at the same time as they did it's 1st MOT and the drain valve recall on the FD. I waited and it took about 4 hours to do the lot

Exactly the same for me in February at Bahnstormer

I think its as enthusiastic your dealer is to do this. Bahnstormer Maidenhead were brilliant. Early arrival and handover. Cup of coffee and told may take upto 4 hours. 2 hours later job done. So not sure why people are being told its a overnight job.
