with Dynamic Traction Control
(DTC)
OE
If the electronic processor re-
ceives values for the bank angle
that it considers implausible over
a lengthy period, a dummy value
is used for the bank angle or the
DTC function is switched off.
Under these circumstances the
indicator for a DTC fault shows.
Self-diagnosis has to complete
before fault messages can be is-
sued.
The BMW Motorrad Traction
Control can shut down automat-
ically under the exceptional riding
conditions outlined below.
Exceptional riding
conditions:
Riding for a lengthy period with
the front wheel lifted off the
ground (wheelie).
Rear wheel rotating with the
vehicle held stationary by ap-
plying the front brake (burn-
out).
Heating up with the motorcycle
on an auxiliary stand, in neutral
or with a gear engaged.
If the encoding plug for the
DY-
NAMIC PRO
riding mode is not
inserted, accelerating the mo-
torcycle to a defined minimum
speed after switching the ignition
off and then on again reactivates
the DTC.
Minimum speed for ac-
tivation of DTC
min 10 km/h
If the front wheel lifts clear of the
ground under severe accelera-
tion, the ASC or DTC reduces
engine torque in the
RAIN
and
ROAD
riding modes until the
front wheel regains contact with
the ground.
Wheelie assistance is deactivated
in the
DYNAMIC PRO
riding
mode.
Under these circumstances,
BMW Motorrad recommends
rolling the throttle slightly closed
so as to restore stability with the
least possible delay.
When riding on a slippery sur-
face, never snap the throttle
twistgrip fully closed without
pulling the clutch at the same
time. Engine braking torque can
cause the rear wheel to skid, with
a corresponding loss of stability.
The BMW Motorrad DTC is un-
able to control a situation of this
nature.
Electronic Suspension
Adjustment (ESA)

OE
Possible settings
Dynamic ESA enables you
to adjust your motorcycle's
suspension to suit the load and
