road. At this point in time, the
ABS must assume extremely co-
efficients of friction (gravel, ice,
snow) so that the running wheels
turn in every imaginable case and
the riding stability is ensured.
After detecting the actual con-
ditions, the system adjusts the
optimum brake pressure.
In what ways is the ABS
noticeable to the rider?
If the ABS system has to reduce
the braking force due to the con-
ditions described above, then
vibrations can be felt through the
handlebar brake lever.
If the handbrake lever is pulled,
then brake pressure is built up at
the rear wheel with the integral
function. If the footbrake lever is
first actuated after this, the brake
pressure already built up can be
felt earlier than the counter-pres-
sure, than when the footbrake
lever is actuated before or to-
gether with the handbrake lever.
Lifting off rear wheel
However, during extremely heavy
and rapid decelerations it is pos-
sible that the ABS cannot pre-
vent the rear wheel from lifting
off the ground. In these cases,
the motorcycle can also flip end
over end.
WARNING
Lifting off of the rear wheel
due to heavy braking
Accident hazard
When braking heavily, bear in
mind that the ABS control can-
not always be relied on to pre-
vent the rear wheel from lifting
off the ground.
What are the design
characteristics of the
ABS?
The BMW Motorrad ABS en-
sures riding stability on any sur-
face within the limits of riding
physics.
From a speed greater
than 2.5 mph (4 km/h), the
BMW Motorrad ABS can
ensure riding stability on any
surface within the limits of riding
physics. At lower speeds, the
BMW Motorrad ABS cannot
provide optimal support on
all surfaces due to system
limitations.
The system is not optimized for
the special conditions encoun-
tered under the extreme condi-
tions of competitive off-road and
race-track use.
