I fear for the future of motorcycling.
It's the present that's fecked too !!

It has only just dawned on me that this is what happens on the GS LC, bikes have lagged behind cars in the technology stakes but they are catching up - I guess it is only the latest newest bikes that are now starting to take advantage of this stuff.

The power is dissipated through a weep hole, often mistaken for coolant. Excess energy is also converted into mechanical clunking noises. Serious machines these LC's for serious riders! Kinda makes me want to get one

Surely all that is happening is the engine management system is sensing load and adjusting timing accordingly? Similar to the way it operates the cruise control. Otherwise known as anti stall device, though you can still stall it...
That's what I thought initially but could work out how that may work e.g. How does one sense load? Then I was told that there was two switches on the clutch lever, so if that's true it all adds up because there is a distinct change at a particular clutch lever positions - maybe some one has a wiring diagram that shows the two switches?
Could it be the engine maintaining its set idle rpm? It doesn't know why the idle speed is trying to lower (temperature, idling down the road while in gear, etc) but it allows a slight amount of fuel to be added to maintain the preset 1,050 rpm idle.

This.
I think the OP is confusing power with RPM.

....is this not something that everyone with a sensitive mechanical soul have known since the introduction of Efi, I seem to recal it started to become widely avalible c1987 on cars the everyone could buy
It's nothing to do with flyby wire or switches !
I'm surprised to read such a thread here due to the torque of a EFi GS 11XX onwards and the fact that they may have been taken into situations where conditions under tyre and tight manovering will have highlighted this 'pushing on effect' .
Thanks for pointing out that one should never assume that the title 'engineer' is a guarantee of logic and competence
I think the title "engineer" may be self appointed or just a smidgen of wishful thinking

I would like to make it known that I'm grateful for opening this thread yesterday evening.
I nodded off reading it, therefore I had wonderful nights sleep.
I now feel quite refreshed.
Many thanks.

Sewage Engineer ?
Software engineer
i've always assumed it was ironic.
Don't think so as there is two very distinct change points as the clutch lever is operated - I am told that there are two switches, does anyone have a diagram?
If you have a WC go try it.
Actually when I hooked my GS911 up yesterday for the first time , in one of the function checks there are " check clutch switch 1" and "check clutch switch 2". I don't know but just assumed these switches are for preventing the bike from starting in gear with the clutch out, and disengaging cruise control when the clutch is pulled in.
Judging by the amount of shite he writes you might be rightSewage Engineer ?
