      You are correct I had a software upfdate already happen so I can't reflect back to the previous version, my dealer is very proactive with the upgrades etc, for example last week I stopped there for a coffee they (my dealer Haneda) immiedately took adv. of this to refit my motorbike with the right side handle bar controller of which BMW global has issued a recall, so I recieved the letter from Japan yesterday however my dealer Haneda has already finished the replacement.

    How long have you been in Japan? Sounds like you are fluent in the language. I just bought a 24 R1250GSA, (big savings on a 24 leftover) had a 18 R1200GS before and I really like the big fuel tank of the GSA. Saw the new R1300GSA at the dealer and in person it looks much better than in photos. I hope to take the new 1300 for a test ride when the 1250 goes in for the 600 mile service on the 30th.
