Spent some time at the dealer.  The emergency bracket is set up for the GSA.  The GS can be retrofitted but requires an adjustable windscreen mount and the plastic screen cover.  The GSA screen cover even has a different shape so the bracket can come through.   Surprised the dealer.   He didn’t know about the difference and thought it was the same.  Said he learned something new.   Thx everyone.

I have a BMW low seat for sale. It is black with red rear. Only used a handful of rides until I lowered the bike and no longer need. No issues, like new. Can ship. Looking for $400.

I have the Cardo Edge and I control the volume with that.
I believe the BMW bar wheel will only control the volume if you use BMWs own headset.

This is correct... You must have a BMW branded headset for the "Wonder Wheel" to be able to control volume. If you like your headset just buy a handlebar mounted remote for your headset Sena is about $100 US.

Anyone able to help me with how to control the volume over bluetooth?  I have the phone successfully paired to the TFT and get directions, can select and play music, etc.  But I can't seem to figure out how to control the volume. The manual seems to indicate on page 98 that turning the wheel by the left grip would change the volume up and down.  I've tried it while in all sorts of different screens but can't seem to get that part to do anything.  I'm hoping I'm just being dense or missing something simple.  Thanks in advance.

For cleaning / checking calipers the front wheel can remain insitu.
The rear wheel has to come off to get at the rear caliper.

Hello,

Has any had any issues with their front wheel rim? Apparently mine has a few spokes loose and I have been told by my dealership that I have to buy a new one. Warranty won't cover it as it is because of the bike's use. It's 6 months old and has 8500 miles on it. Any suggestions?

I don't know how it works over there in the UK but the bikes have a 3 year warranty here in the US. Unless they are seeing obvious signs of abuse or there is other damage the spokes should be able to be tensioned. I believe tensioning the spokes is part of the recommended service procedure in some services.
If not find a good independent mechanic to have a look.

Hello, do you know how I can remove the brakes (front and rear) so I can clean the callipers? Do I have to take the rear wheel off the bike to do that for the rear? And what about the front? Thanks in advance!

I’m no mechanic (I just ride ‘em; I have no idea how they work) but when I watch my tyre guy, I’m sure he removes the calipers BEFORE he takes the wheels off…

It looks like the fixed 750 screen mount is wider than the 850 GSA lowering / raising mechanism.
