adaptations reset question euro4 wethead boxer

(1/3) > >>

GvG:
Hi all - new to the forum.

I have a R1200RT LC euro4 and am looking to reset the adaptation values for the:
-throttle twist-grip sensor,
-throttle valve sensor,
-transmission position sensor.

Hopefully this will make my shifting with the quickshifter a bit smoother and less clunky. 

Has anyone does the same thing/reset, and is it wise to do all 3 resets?

And do I just follow the instructions on the GS-911 or are there other procedures that must also be carried out.  I've seen a post that says the bike needs to be left on idle until the fan switches on then off after resetting them. 

And do I have to "relearn"  the quickshifter (shifting 1 to 6 holding each gear 10 seconds) after resetting these adaptation values?

Thanks in advance for any guidance!

Inspector Gadget:
Whilst awaiting somebody to response to your query to the above, please make sure to have a very good relationship with your BMW dealer;
I know from past experiences from my buddies with the same, a software-update (well, actually a couple of them) eventually resolved most of their issues.
But also a hardware-modification for the connecting-rod of the clutch? (not sure if I recall that correctly from memory though)

GvG:
A hardware-modification for the connecting-rod of the clutch was only for the '13 models, the first wetheads. My clutch is fine and shifting without using the quickshifter is also fine, only when I use the quickshifter I feel it could be a bit smoother if the electronics would coöperate a bit better together  ;D.

I'm offered to borrow a GS-911 from a friend of mine and therefore going to reset the mentioned adaptation values; if it doesn't improve anything nothing is lost I think so............

Mornay:
The instructions for each adaptation reset is displayed on the screen before running the adaptation, so you're made aware of exactly what is required. A quick shifter reset should definitely make a noticeable difference as the voltages for each gear are re-learnt.

Ok, but needs the bike to be left on idle until the fan switches on after resetting the adaptations values like the local BMW dealer does?
