braking force is applied as rap-
idly as possible and with the
rider's full force applied to the
brake levers; under these circum-
stances the dynamic shift in load
distribution 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 ABS prevents
the front wheel from locking up.
Descending mountain
passes
WARNING
Braking only 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 dimin-
ish braking efficiency.
Delayed braking action or poor
braking efficiency must be
reckoned with in the following
situations:
Riding in the rain or through
puddles of water
After the vehicle has been
washed
Riding on salted or gritted
roads
After work has been carried on
the brakes, due to traces of oil
or grease
Riding on dirt-covered surfaces
or off-road.
WARNING
Moisture and dirt.
Diminished braking effect.
Apply the brakes lightly while
riding to remove wetness and
dirt, or dismount and clean the
brakes.
Think ahead and brake in good
time until full braking efficiency
is restored.
Parking your
motorcycle
Side stand
Switch off the engine.
ATTENTION
Poor ground underneath the
stand.
Risk of damage to parts if vehicle
topples.
Always check that the ground
under the stand is level and
firm.
