GS1300 - permanently low setting?

[keithquad]

Owners, do you know if you can ‘force’ the electronic suspension to be ‘low’ all the time vs only below 25mph(ish)?

The situation;
I’ve had 3 GS’s, all factory lowered, with low seat & low bobbins which has been fine. At only 5 foot 2, 28 inside leg. This has permitted me to take it on the TET in Spain etc.
I’ve just sat on the GS1300 with the suspension at low & with the medium seat & it was OK ‘ish, not as low as what I know a lowered GS1200/1250 is.
The Bowker BMW guys indicated that you carnt ‘force’ it to be low.
Interestingly the GS Adventure has an additional lowering capability ‘comfort plus’ which is lower than the GS - which appears strange that the bike that was always bigger, in the past, has greater lowering capability than the standard!

So, from the ‘little’ knowledge that appeared present with in the Bowker team, 1. the GS1300 can not be ‘set to low’2. The seat hight of GS1300 adaptive, with low seat height is higher than GS1200/1250 factory lowered with low seat. 3. GS1300 Adventure with the addition of comfort plus (or what ever the fck it’s called) is lower than the GS!
Users of these bikes, please can you tell me is the above true?

Thank you in anticipation.

Why would you want it to stay low 'above 25 mph' ?

In enduro mode and enduro pro mode you can set it to permanently low, although as baked bean says, I’m not sure why you’d want to, especially if riding off road

In order that if I was off roading & quickly wanted to put afoot down then I would be confident that it was low straight away.
Although as you are intimating if it lowers quickly then there will be little need.
If you can set it to low then that would be useful.
