BMW F750 GS - Mode & Suspension settings - Most GS owners don't know this...

Показать описание

The BMW F750 GS, but also the F850 GS and F1250 GS, although they have some additional settings. I recently discovered that a lot of fellow GS riders had a bit of a 'a-ha' moment when I mentioned it, which is why I think most owners may not know this... hence this very quick little video.

Maybe you have a BMW F750GS or maybe you are wondering which motorbike to buy, or which motorbike is the best brand. Do you want on-road, off-road or a mix of the two? Well, I hope my regular input on my experience helps.

In this video, basically it's the ability to 'further' adjust the suspension to your liking when in Rain, Road and Dynamic Mode. Not Enduro, as that is an 'all-inclusive' mode, for the 750. 850's and above have the additional 'Pro' settings for ABS options - I'm not getting into all that here.

This is just a simple "did you know" type of video, so hopefully it is helpful to some... or "most' as I am claiming! Just a hunch... enjoy.

I bought a 750 gs with all the bells and whistles last summer. When my dealer here in Norway showed me around the bike, he told me how to set the suspension to road and the throttle respons to dynamic for a comfortable and sporty ride. I use this all the time. One tip: check the suspension setting occasionally since it sometimes reverts to dynamic on its own.🙂

Yes, I did know that. Learned it on my 1250 GS and use it all the time on my 750 GS. Suspension in Road and throttle in Dynamic. With the suspension in Road, it rides like a dream, very smooth, and with the comfortable seat, it really rides nice. When I ride mountain roads, I put the suspension in dynamic.

Thank you I didn’t know about this. However I have adjusted it on my GS 750. Thank you.

I mainly ride in dynamic and rarely change to road mode. What I often use is the preload. When I ride with luggage of course but also to adjust the height when parking at uneven ground. If the lean angle is to small when put the bike on the side stand I change the preload to two up or luggage. And sometimes when riding with luggage the lean angle is to big when I get of the bike then I lower the bike. I think that’s can come in handy now and then.

I did not know this! Thank you. Not yet 8 AM here and I've already learned something! Going to be a good day!

Thanks for this video. I just got a F750 GS and accidentally changed all these modes, could sense the change but not sure what it all meant (the owner's book is not the easiest thing to read). You have just saved me hours of sitting there trying to figure it out! Tops.

Hello ! From Franck in Normandy, France. I ride a 2019 F750GS for 2 years now and I permanently use road engine mode + road with suspension settings. I will try Dynamic in engine response and road in suspension. The only times I tried all in dynamic I didn't enjoy it. Too firm for me. Thanks for your videos!
Have good rides!

No I didn't know that. Having said that I don't get my 2023 750GS until I get back to Australia from the UK mid September . Very much looking forward to it. Haven't owned a bike since 2004 !!
Loving your videos and Colombia looks appealing. Fellow Brit here btw.

Thank you so much for this cool hint! I drive the 750 for about 2 years and simply did not know that, great!

May one ask which windshield you use? Do you use a height adjustment of the windshield or is it fixed?

I am by chance stumbled on your channel and really like your videos! Hope that we get to see more of you!

Apparently, the 750gs is just a detuned 850gs? A simple remap beings the power up massively apparently ?

Dynamic ESA changes the spring preload in when using the ride modes (right button) and when using the load adjustments (left button). Basically the spring tension is changed, which can be measured and the damping by changing the electronic valve system.

I set my 750GS in Rain mode. I like the delayed sloppy throttle for getting on down the road. It reminds me of my Harley in the garage. If I was in a hurry I would have bought a sport bike or something like that. ok, thanks!
