Brakes
How do you achieve
the shortest stopping
distances?
The dynamic load distribution be-
tween the front and rear wheel
changes during braking. The
heavier you brake, the greater
the weight transfer to the front
wheel. Increases in the load at
an individual wheel are accom-
panied by a rise in the effective
braking force that the wheel can
provide.
To achieve the shortest possible
braking distance, the front brake
must be applied quickly and with
increasing force. This procedure
provides ideal exploitation of the
extra weight transfer to the front
wheel. The clutch should also be
disengaged at the same time.
With the "forced braking" of-
ten practiced in which the brake
pressure is generated as quickly
as possible and with great force,
the dynamic load distribution
cannot follow the increased de-
celeration and the braking force
cannot be completely transferred
to the road surface.
Locking up of the front wheel
is prevented by BMW Motorrad
ABS.
Descending mountain
passes
WARNING
Braking only with the rear-
wheel brake when descend-
ing mountain passes.
Loss of braking action. Destruc-
tion of the brakes caused by
overheating.
Use both front and rear brakes,
and make use of the engine's
braking effect as well.
Wet, soiled brakes
Moisture and dirt on the brake
rotors and the brake pads result
in a decrease in the braking ac-
tion.
Delayed or poorer braking action
must be expected in the follow-
ing situations:
When driving in the rain and
through puddles.
After washing the motorcycle.
When driving on roads spread
with salt.
After working on the brakes
due to oil or grease residues.
When driving on soiled roads
or offroad.
WARNING
Moisture and dirt.
Poorer braking action.
