erting greater pressure on the
levers.
WARNING
New brake pads
Longer stopping distance, risk of
accident
Apply the brakes in good
time.
Tyres
New tyres have a smooth sur-
face. This must be roughened
by riding in a restrained manner
at various heel angles until the
tyres are run in. Only once the
surface has been roughened can
the tyres achieve maximum grip.
WARNING
New tyres losing grip on wet
roads and at extreme bank
angles
Risk of accident
Ride carefully and avoid ex-
tremely sharp inclines.
Brakes
How can stopping
distance be minimised?
Each time the brakes are applied,
a load distribution shift takes
place with the load shifting for-
ward from the rear to the front
wheel. The sharper the vehicle
decelerates, the more load is
shifted to the front wheel. The
higher the wheel load, the more
braking 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 emergency brak-
ing situations that are trained so
frequently, brake pressure is gen-
erated as rapidly as possible and
with the rider's full force applied
to the brake levers; under these
circumstances the dynamic shift
in load distribution cannot keep
pace with the increase in de-
celeration and the tyres cannot
transmit the full brake force to
the surface of the roadway.
BMW Motorrad ABS prevents
the front wheel from locking up.
WARNING
Rear wheel lift due to severe
braking
Risk of falling
When you brake sharply, bear
in mind that ABS control can-
not always be relied on to pre-
vent the rear wheel from lifting
clear of the ground.
