Default Question ?

Hey guys I have understood that when removing the flashing lights or riding the bike fairing circuit-board computer fails and leaves the engine turns up

I think we should put some resistance where the lights go, right?

You know what kind or where to buy them, someone has installed?

Hi,

In a few weeks will be available a BMW Motorrad software where you could disable the turn light signals... just be patient...

Best Regards,
Marco

I hope they make it switchable by the end user and not a permanent thing.

They could tie it in with the lap timer. If you have the lap timer on the lights are deactivated? Or they could add another option into the menu of the INFO screen and it would be to shut the lights off.

I hope its made so when the bike is in race mode or slick mode it does not recognize the lights and gives you a lamp failure warning.

I doubt its possible to have the lights go on/off through software given that the lights are not under software control like the engine, abs, dtc, etc. These bikes don't put the lights on the canbus.

AFAIK, the only thing that happens when you disconnect the lights is you get a lamp failure icon on the instrument panel.
