DTC system intervention is even

later, which means that even on

dry asphalt drifting is possible

under sharp acceleration when

cornering.

Switchover

A mode change involving func-

tions in the engine management

system and the DTC system is

possible only when drive torque

is not applied to the rear wheel.

To obtain this state,

the motorcycle must be

stopped with the ignition

switched on,

or

the throttle must be turned

back,

the clutch must be actuated.

First the desired driving mode

is preselected. The switchover

does not take place until the

affected systems are in the re-

quired state.

The selection menu does not

disappear in the display until the

driving mode has been switched

over.

Brake system with

BMW Motorrad Integral

ABS

Partially integral brake

Your motorcycle is equipped with

a partially integral brake configu-

ration. Both front and rear brakes

are applied simultaneously when

you pull the handbrake lever.

The footbrake lever acts only on

the rear brake.

The BMW Motorrad Integral ABS

adapts the braking force distribu-

tion between the front and rear

wheel brake to the loading of the

motorcycle during braking.

Spinning of the rear wheel

with the front brake pulled

(burn out) is made consider-

ably more difficult by the inte-

gral function. The result may be

damage to the rear wheel brake

and the clutch.

Avoid burn-outs.

How does ABS work?

The maximum braking force that

can be transferred to the road

surface is partially dependent on

the friction coefficient of the road

surface. Gravel, ice, snow and

wet roads offer a considerably

poorer friction coefficient than a

dry, clean asphalt surface. The

poorer the friction coefficient of

the road surface is, the longer

the braking distance will be.

If the maximum transferrable

braking force is exceeded when

the driver increases the brake

pressure, the wheels begin to

lock and driving stability is lost,
