+1.
The first BMW I rode was a standard model 1150 GS just after they were introduced. I'm not sure how the ratios compare to the 1100S but I would think first gear at least would be lower on the GS. I never did get used to it and continually stalled on take off. I bought my current GS Adventure only after I found out that first gear ratio had been changed on the Adventure model to be a bit lower than even the standard GS, and it was/is still fairly prone to stall on take off.
I am betting that you'll adapt and it won't be an issue anymore.
