It's possible. Those of us who have had (or have...) other Maxis liked the convenience of a parking brake while stopped on hills at the light, etc. It frees up your hands for other tasks than keeping the brakes on. BMW's engineers apparently figured that enough people had bikes FALL OVER while on the side stand, due to not having the brake applied, that they made it automatic.
Good Idea! And it kills your engine...
On a brand new BMW Forum in Spain, a quick and easy mod was posted. It's inserting a bridge across the plug for the stand sensor...thinks it's always up and the engine won't die when you lower the side stand to USE the brake!
