Ride mode

Selection

You can choose the mode that

best suits the weather, the road

conditions and your style of rid-

ing from four ride modes:

RAIN

SPORT (standard mode)

RACE

SLICK (only with coding plug

inserted)

Each of these modes produces

perceptible differences in the way

the motorcycle behaves. ABS

and/or DTC can be switched off

in each mode: the explanations

below invariably apply to the be-

haviour of the motorcycle with

these systems active. The mode

last selected is automatically re-

activated after the ignition has

been switched off and then on

again. However, the ABS and/

or DTC systems remain deac-

tivated only if the coding plug is

inserted.

The basic rule is: the sportier

the mode you select, the more

directly can you tap into the en-

gine's reserves of power. At the

same time, the level of rider as-

sistance that the ABS and DTC

systems offer decreases accord-

ingly.

The RAIN, SPORT and RACE

modes are set up for riding with

standard tyres recommended

by BMW Motorrad. The SLICK

mode is for racing slicks and sur-

faces with a very high level of

grip.

Consequently, you must always

bear the following in mind with

regard to your selection of a ride

mode: the sportier the setting,

the greater the challenge to your

riding skill.

RAIN

The engine's full power is not

made available. Power increase

when you open the throttle is

reserved, engine response is cor-

respondingly soft.

The ABS always intervenes early

enough to prevent as effectively

as possible the wheels from lock-

ing and the rear wheel from lifting

off the ground.

The DTC system intervenes early

enough to prevent the rear wheel

from spinning whenever possible.

SPORT

The engine's full power is

available in this mode. Power

increase when you open the

throttle is greater than in RAIN

mode, but engine response is still

reserved.

The behaviour of the ABS is the

same as in RAIN mode.

The DTC system intervenes later

than in RAIN mode, so it is pos-
