Quick shifter Has anyone fitted an after market one?

[stick]

As I understand it the dealer updates the ecu so to allow the shifter to work as intended.

Hi , I went thro this on my 2013 bike , the dealer tried to retro fit as it seemed that you could do it, but found that it could not be done.
They went down the route of fitting the extra loom required to plug the switch in but when they tried to get the ecu to accept the new loom/quickshifter it would not do it.
BMW would not issue the codes required to allow the ecu to upload the info required.
They stated that the bike was a 13 not a 14 so the would not do it. ( this was on the second replacement engine)
I fitted a translogic one after seeing Ding Dong thread and it worked great.
Hope this may shed a bit of light.
Cheers

Afraid Not the loom is different and no doubt the ecu software is too.

Agree

I wonder how the dealer got round it on mine?

No matter, however they did it, I'm happy they did.

.

Because yours is a 2014 model sept 13 was the start of the first batch of 14 models (they were 2 model updates for 2014) the first batch had the option for shift assist and the second batch, the rear rack had the words BMW embossed instead of the round badge emblem and the crash bar mounts were different and the heavy flywheel engine.

Very recently i asked Translogic whether they will be developing "blip assist" modules for the R1200GS LC as well. If you can get a blip assist module together with their quick shifting setup you will be able to do clutch less downshifts as well.
Their reply was that they are considering expanding their blip assist module range starting in 2017. Currently they only manufacture blip assist for some Yamaha models.
Whether the R1200GS LC will be on the list depends of course on demand for the unit.

Why don't all of you who also want this function on your R1200GS LC sent an email to Translogic as well, we may just get lucky and Translogic obliges.
The info i have read regarding the Translogic systems are that they function very well.

I contacted BMW about having there QS, They can fit the shift assist Pro to my 2014 model so it will shift upwards, and use the auto blipper on the downshifts as well , so Have it booked in to be done.

I have had the standard QS before, so will be interesting to compare the. QS Pro to see what improvements they have made?.
