Yes, although I prefer port and starboard (that way it doesn't matter
how you're looking at the bike.) #1 is starboard, #2 is port. Simple
enough to empirically determine this - disconnect one of the O2 sensors
and see which side goes away in the plot (although the cylinder
numbering is shown on the BMW REP-ROM.)

You're picking nits here. the differences are not significant, and the
temperature and knock sensors output will move around.

The slow one is going bad. I'll attach a plot of two good sensors.
If one is noticeably slower then the other - it's going bad. I replaced
mine with a universal O2 sensor replacement I found on Amazon for a
small fraction of the cost of BMWs.. but it does require some splicing
of wires. If you're uncomfortable doing that - motorrad electric (google
it) sells a replacement with the connector for about 1/3rd of BMW price.

Where are you reading this? The ABS speed sensors should only make
signals when the wheels are turning. If you have no ABS faults - then
it's fine.

Ditto on last comment. You appear to be obsessing with data. I'd suggest
an active test. Go ride the bike, if no faults appear, everything is fine.

No HES on the 1200 engines.

No - the TPS is a self learning device. If it's disconnected when the
ignition is one (why?) it will learn it's correct range and position the
next time you ride the bike. It isn't critical to the operation of the
bike, but if you want to teach it quickly, turn the ignition on, fully
twist the throttle once - and the BMSK has learned it.

"lot of errors" = low battery condition at some point. You can erase
them and forgeddabout'em.
