anyone know what the difference is between dynamic and dynamic pro

There are seven ride modes but only a maximum of four 'favourites' can be selected at any one time to scroll through on the fly. Go into settings, pick your modes to a maximum of four and they can be selected on the fly.
Don’t think you can access the settings on the TFT until you are connected according to the handbook
Sounds more like a massage chair than a motorcycle!!!
Where you reading that? That is absolutely not the case. That would mean if you didn't have a smart phone, you would not have access to the modes! Not even BMW would do that. Pages 77-81 in the rider's handbook tell you all you need to know.
