Since many (most?) bikes with ASC have a button to turn it off, I'd like to know under what conditions would you do so? And whether or not the answer varies by type of bike and not only road (or off-road) conditions.
I've got a 2013 F800GS on order with ASC and plan to do some fairly gentle off-roading with it as I develop the needed skills, but I just returned from a 9-day 5,000 km trip with my loaded K1300GT and PR3 road tires. On that trip I did a 10 km stretch on a rather bad dirt and gravel road to get in to a camping site (Meat Cove in Cape Breton Island) and I turned off the ASC on that and "felt" better, but cannot really quality that feeling.
So I'd like to learn more about when/if to turn it off on either bike.
Thanks for any help understanding this.
Cheers!
