BRAKES
How can stopping distance be
minimised?
Each time the brakes are ap-
plied, a load distribution shift
takes place with the load shift-
ing forward from the rear to
the front wheel. The sharper
the motorcycle decelerates,
the more load is shifted to the
front wheel. The higher the
wheel load, the more brak-
ing force can be transmitted
without the wheel locking.
In order to achieve the shortest
stopping distance, the front
wheel brake must be pulled
quickly until ABS activates, the
pressure point held and the
rear wheel brake operated at
the same time. This makes
the best possible use of the
dynamic increase in load at the
front wheel. Remember to pull
the clutch at the same time.
BMW Motorrad ABS prevents
the front wheel from locking.
In the "emergency braking situ-
ations" that are trained so fre-
quently, braking force is ap-
plied as rapidly as possible and
with the rider's full force ap-
plied to the brake levers; un-
der these circumstances the
dynamic shift in load distribu-
tion cannot keep pace with the
increase in deceleration and
the tyres cannot transmit the
full braking force to the surface
of the road. In the absence
of load on the wheel the ABS
has to intervene to prevent the
front wheel from locking even
if the brakes are applied only
very lightly. This leads to a re-
duced braking effect.
Descending mountain passes
WARNING
Braking mostly with the rear
brake on mountain descents
Brake fade, destruction of the
brakes due to overheating
Use both front and rear
brakes, and make use of the
engine's braking effect as
well.
