DTC system intervention is even
later, which means that even on
dry asphalt drifting is possible
under sharp acceleration when
cornering.
Mode changes
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.
In order to achieve this state,
the motorcycle must be at
a standstill with the ignition
switched on,
or
the throttle twistgrip must be in
the fully closed position,
the clutch lever must be pulled
and the clutch disengaged.
The desired ride mode is initially
preselected. The mode change
does not take place until the sys-
tems in question are all in the
appropriate state.
The selection menu does not
disappear from the display un-
til the mode change has taken
place.
Brake system with
BMW Motorrad Integral
ABS
Partially integral brakes
Your motorcycle is equipped with
partially integral brakes. Both
front and rear brakes are applied
when you pull the handbrake
lever. The footbrake lever acts
only on the rear brake.
While the brakes are slowing the
motorcycle, the BMW Motorrad
Integral ABS adapts braking-force
distribution between front and
rear brakes to suit the load on
the motorcycle.
The integral braking func-
tion makes it very difficult
to spin the rear wheel by opening
the throttle with the front brake
applied to keep the motorcycle
stationary (burn-out). Attempted
burn-outs can result in damage
to the rear brake and the clutch.
Do not attempt burn-outs.
How does ABS work?
The amount of braking force that
can be transferred to the road
depends on factors hat include
the coefficient of friction of the
road surface. Loose stones, ice
and snow or a wet road all have
much lower coefficients of friction
than a clean, dry asphalt surface.
The lower the coefficient of fric-
tion, the longer the braking dis-
tance.
If the rider increases braking
pressure to the extent that brak-
