I remember asking for a video on this about 2 years ago. My S1000R with DDC suspension could not cope with my weight, I was bottoming out even at max preload. the rear was bouncing up and down and the bike could not be ridden "spirited". I ended up putting heavier springs in the forks, and having the rear shock rebuilt, both by Wilbers. The shock comes with an additional manual fast/slow compression adjustment. Bike is much stiffer now, but I'm struggling to find a good setup. I play with it and it feels good, next week I'm no longer happy and end up playing with it again and find a different setup I like. Don't think I will go electronic on my next bike.

There is software that handles DDC suspension. As one comment below indicates that the 2D front sensor adds to the functional aspects of the front forks. The software solution to DDC is adding RCK3 and HP power kit enables. Here at BMWHP.com we handle those ECU enables at reasonable levels of $$$.. BMW should have created a track day software package that allows the tuning of the suspension and DTC and it does not void your warranty on a brand new bike. As noted in the video FIM has banned DDC type suspension because BMW was already ahead of everyone else in the DDC suspension area. RCK3 allows tuning sectors on the racetrack. You have 30 sectors you can have the suspension changing on the fly. As noted in the video, you better have some knowledge of reading data from something like AnnaLiza which comes with the 2D HP DataLogger system. I have 100's of hours in working with the DDC suspension on the 2015 and newer systems. Its not just about flipping the plus or minus of the compression and rebound that is available to the electronics. No where in the video does it mention that fork oil changes makes a dramatic change to how the electronics react just as it does in conventional forks today. Stock is great if it happens to match your body weight, and riding style. If you are really serious to riding the S1000RR at an expert level, I can advise you on the electronics and tuning via RCK3 / HP Power Kit.

You gotta love when dave asks a question they respond with answers he didn't ask for. Example Dave do you ride the canyons? Fellow: i only ride weekends. Like come on dude. And a lot of these clients do this.

I trust this guy after watching him for 20 seconds. People like that guy are hard to find.

@Dave Moss do you maybe know.. can i stet up my abs on my Bmw S1000RR 2015 Model seperatly`? like no back break abs only front`? sry for my englisch

Hi, Dave. I'm from Poland. Is it worth inserting for Mupo Front Fork Hydraulic Kit and Racetech Shock Gold Valves for public roads? I care about more comfortable driving, and especially on better damping of unevenness of short transverse irregularities on roads of inferior quality. I have a Honda CBR 600RR from 2007. The cost of this modification is around $ 600.

@dave moss I am not talking about racing!!! Do you believe that for road use (fast riding in curvy roads) are there any better systems than BMW offers?? DTC , DDC?? Because I believe that with the sensors that the bikes have is too safe..please correct me if I am wrong, do you believe having good "manual" suspensions with a traction control that is not calculating the lean angle of the bike is better than having this package of BMW ??

My bike feels like no rebound when hitting bumps etc , settings are at 0 for compression/ damping . Bike feels unstable.. any suggestions?

Is there any way to fix the s1000rr damping so there is no dynamic damping control?

1:08 Where is that location? How often do you provide your services there? Is there a schedule I can refer too?

Some interesting comments; I agree 100% until FIM get their act together things won't progress for bikes used on the track, or the road. I haven't ridden the Honda, but have the Aprilia, Ducati on the track and have an Srr sports. Best option, remove the standard suspension, and replace it with quality custom built forks/shock. Then you'll "need" carbon wheels, then better brakes. Thank goodness it is only money.
