I got told the same.
On my 1200 every so often it would go out of signal range.
Anyway….I’d like to know has anybody ever needed to make use of this and has it worked?
Quite honestly it seems a bit of a gimmick to me.
I got hit and run back in June. SOS kicked in, called the emergency services for me. Ambulance, police and recovery. Bloody excellent.If you google, there is a video of a chap in the UK who fell off his steed and needed it. Also a friend dropped his bike on a Wales trip and the SOS call centre was on immediately to see if he was ok. Mine on my RT failed and it took the dealer something like 8 weeks to fix. It hasn't gone off since, but to be honest I haven't tested it, so don't know if its working Should really try a test call

"Has anyone actually just pressed to test?"
Yes, i did after getting sick of usual msgs on tft saying "sos failure contact specialist workshop". Someone answered & i apologised & explained i was testing the system to see if it worked as i kept getting the failure msg. They were very good and just made certain I was ok & that I didn't need emergency services.
Took Bmw 2.5 years before a fix, by a software update, was made to stop the spurious false failure msgs .
