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.
To optimise stopping distance,
apply the front brakes rapidly
and keep on increasing the
force you apply to the brake
lever. 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. In the
extreme sudden-stop braking
situations that are trained so
frequently, 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.
BMW Motorrad Integral ABS
prevents the front wheel from
locking up.
Emergency braking
If you brake sharply from a
speed in excess of 50 km/h,
the brake light flashes rapidly
as a warning for road users be-
hind you.
If you brake until your speed
is less than 15 km/h, the haz-
ard warning lights start to flash
as well. The hazard warning
lights switch off automatically
as soon as you start to acceler-
ate and vehicle speed reaches
20 km/h.
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.
Wet and dirty brakes
Wetness and dirt on the brake
discs and the brake pads di-
minish braking efficiency.
Delayed braking action or poor
braking efficiency must be
reckoned with in the follow-
ing situations:
