After the soft forks of a Duke, Telelever will seem remote ... but it certainly isn't. The BMW set up actually allows you to carry a lot of corner speed ....
Re the switches ... I really like them (I have a GS ADV). Journos complain about no standard, and having to use right hand to turn off indicators. Fortunately I am a slightly higher life form, and have no problem in multitasking with such an easy thing ....
