    That's what I thought.. it makes no sense at all that the controller is only for the GPS.. So the BMW press kit seems to be wrong.. no surprise there.

    For those concerned with seat height BMW is making available a HIGH seat for the new GS, as is available for the current model in Europe.

    I'm pretty tall but need a low seat because my inseam is mitigated by the size of my. . . external organs.

    Since it looks like it interacts with the computer it might be part of the pro computer kit.

    I hope BMW doesn't 'optionize' the hell out of this bike for different price points in the market. Just give us the damn bike with all the features for fair market value that competes with the Multistrada/KTM. Besides, the GSA should be where they make the money on the extra options.

    Where'd you get this information? Any more you care to share? Maybe even the US price? Am I the only one that is waking up every morning wondering what the price will be? It's bad for my health.:rofl
