Range
The range readout 1 RANGE in-dicates how far you can ride withthe fuel remaining in the tank.This distance is calculated on thebasis of average consumptionand the quantity of fuel on board.
When the motorcycle ispropped on its side standthe slight angle of inclinationmeans that the sensor cannotregister the fuel level correctly.This is the reason why therange is calculated onlywhen the side stand is in theretracted position.
The range reading appearsautomatically on the multifunc-tion display when fuel is downto the reserve level.After a refuelling stop, range isrecalculated if the amount offuel in the tank is greater thanthe reserve quantity.The calculated range is only anapproximate figure.

HelmetMotorcycling jacket andtrousersGlovesBoots
This applies even to shortjourneys, and to every seasonof the year. Your authorisedBMW Motorrad dealer will beglad to advise you on the correctclothing for every purpose.
Restricted angle of heelA motorcycle with loweredsuspension has less groundclearance and cannot cornerat angles of heel as extremeas those achievable by acounterpart motorcycle withstandard-height suspension.
WARNING
When a motorcycle withlowered suspension is cor-nering, certain componentscan come into contact withthe surface at a bank angleless than that to which therider is accustomed.Risk of falling
Carefully try out the limits ofthe motorcycle's bank angleand adapt your style of ridingaccordingly.
Test your motorcycle's angleof heel in situations that do notinvolve risk. When riding overkerbs and similar obstacles, bearin mind that your motorcycle'sground clearance is limited.
Lowering the motorcycle'ssuspension shortens suspensiontravel (see the section entitled"Technical Data"). Ride comfortmight be restricted as a result.
Be sure to adjust spring preloadaccordingly, particularly for ridingtwo-up.

BrakesHow can stoppingdistance be minimised?Each time the brakes are applied,a load distribution shift takesplace with the load shifting for-ward from the rear to the frontwheel. The sharper the vehicledecelerates, the more load isshifted to the front wheel. The
higher the wheel load, the morebraking force can be transmittedwithout the wheel locking.To optimise stopping distance,apply the front brakes rapidly andkeep on increasing the force youapply to the brake lever. Thismakes the best possible use ofthe dynamic increase in load atthe front wheel. Remember topull the clutch at the same time.BMW Motorrad ABS preventsthe front wheel from locking up.In the "panic braking situations"that are trained so frequently,braking force is applied as rap-idly as possible and with therider's full force applied to thebrake levers; under these circum-stances, the dynamic shift in loaddistribution cannot keep pacewith the increase in decelerationand the tyres cannot transmitthe full braking force to the sur-face of the road. In the absenceof load on the wheel the ABS
has to intervene to prevent thefront wheel from locking even ifthe brakes are applied only verylightly. This leads to a reducedbraking effect.
Hazard brakingwith ABS Pro OE
If you brake sharply from a speedin excess of 50 km/h, the brakelight flashes rapidly as an addi-tional warning for road users be-hind you.The hazard warning lights sys-tem switches on if you brake tobelow 15 km/h in this process.The hazard warning lights systemautomatically switches off againfrom a speed of 20 km/h.

Possibility of a fall notprecludedAlthough ABS Pro provides therider with valuable assistance andconstitutes a huge advance insafety for braking with the mo-torcycle banked for cornering, itcannot under any circumstancesbe considered as redefining thephysical limits that apply to mo-torcycling. It is still possible forthese limits to be overshot dueto misjudgement or rider error. Inextreme cases this can result in acrash.
Use on public roadsABS Pro helps make the mo-torcycle even safer for riding onpublic roads. When the brakesare applied because of an un-foreseen hazard when the mo-torcycle is banked for cornering,within the physical limits that ap-ply to motorcycling the system
prevents the wheels from lockingand skidding away.

General instructionsTo find out more about engineer-ing, go to:bmw-motorrad.com/techno-logy
Anti-lock brake system(ABS)Partially integral brakesYour motorcycle is equipped withpartially integral brakes. Bothfront and rear brakes are appliedwhen you pull the handbrakelever. The footbrake lever actsonly on the rear brake.
ATTENTION
Attempted burn-out despiteIntegral braking functionDamage to rear wheel brake andclutch (integral pressure build-upis supported even when the ABSis switched off)
Do not burn out tyres.
How does ABS work?The amount of braking force thatcan be transferred to the roaddepends on factors that includethe coefficient of friction of theroad surface. Loose stones, iceand snow or a wet road all havemuch lower coefficients of frictionthan a clean, dry asphalt surface.The lower the coefficient of fric-tion, the longer the braking dis-tance.If the rider increases brakingpressure to the extent that brak-ing force exceeds the maximumtransferable limit, the wheels startto lock and the vehicle loses itsdirectional stability; a fall is im-minent. Before this situationcan occur, ABS intervenes andadapts braking pressure to themaximum transferable brakingforce, so the wheels continueto turn and directional stabilityis maintained irrespective of thecondition of the road surface.
What are the effects ofsurface irregularities?Humps and surface irregularit-ies can cause the wheels to losecontact temporarily with the roadsurface; if this happens the brak-ing force that can be transmit-ted to the road can drop to zero.If the brakes are applied underthese circumstances the ABShas to reduce braking force toensure that directional stability ismaintained when the wheels re-gain contact with the road sur-face. At this instant the ABSmust assume an extremely lowcoefficient of friction, so that thewheels will continue to rotate un-der all imaginable circumstances,because this is the preconditionfor ensuring directional stability.As soon as is registers the ac-tual circumstances, the systemreacts instantly and adjusts brak-ing force accordingly to achieveoptimum braking.

What feedback does therider receive from theBMW Motorrad RaceABS?If the ABS has to reduce brakingforce on account of the circum-stances described above, vibra-tion is perceptible through thehandbrake lever.When the handbrake lever ispulled, brake pressure is alsobuilt up at the rear wheel bythe integral function. If thebrake pedal is depressed afterthe handbrake lever is pulled,the brake pressure built upbeforehand is perceptible ascounter-pressure sooner than isthe case when the brake pedal isdepressed either before or at thesame time as the brake lever ispulled.
Rear wheel liftEven under severe braking, ahigh level of tyre grip can meanthat the front wheel does notlock up until very late, if at all.Consequently, ABS does not in-tervene until very late, if at all.Under these circumstances therear wheel can lift off the ground,and the outcome can be a high-siding situation in which the mo-torcycle can flip over.
WARNING
Rear wheel lift due to severebrakingRisk of falling
When you brake sharply, bearin mind that ABS control can-not always be relied on to pre-vent the rear wheel from liftingclear of the ground.
Special situationsThe speeds of the front and rearwheels are compared as onemeans of detecting a wheel'sincipient tendency to lock. Ifthe system registers implaus-ible values for a lengthy periodthe ABS function is deactivatedfor safety reasons and an ABSfault message is issued. Self-dia-gnosis has to complete beforefault messages can be issued.In addition to problems with theBMW Motorrad Race ABS, ex-ceptional riding conditions canlead to a fault message being is-sued.Exceptional ridingconditions:
Heating up with the motorcycleon an auxiliary stand, in neutralor with a gear engaged.Rear wheel locked by the en-gine brake for a lengthy period,for example while descendingsteep gradients.

If a fault message is issued onaccount of exceptional ridingconditions, you can reactivatethe ABS function by switchingthe ignition off and on again.
What significancedevolves on regularmaintenance?
WARNING
Brake system not regularlyserviced.Risk of accident
In order to ensure that theBMW Motorrad Race ABS isalways maintained in optimumcondition, it is essential for youto comply strictly with the spe-cified inspection intervals.
Reserves for safetyThe potentially shorter brakingdistances which BMW MotorradRace ABS permits must not beused as an excuse for carelessriding. ABS is primarily a meansof ensuring a safety margin ingenuine emergencies.Take care when cornering! Whenyou apply the brakes on a corner,the motorcycle's weight andmomentum take over and evenBMW Motorrad Race ABS is un-able to counteract their effects.
Evolution of Race ABS toABS Pro
with ABS Pro OE
Until now, the BMW MotorradRace ABS helped ensure a veryhigh degree of safety for brakingwith the motorcycle upright andtravelling in a straight line. NowABS Pro offers enhanced safetyfor braking in corners as well.
ABS Pro prevents the wheelsfrom locking even under sharpbraking. ABS Pro reduces abruptchanges in steering force, partic-ularly in panic-braking situations,counteracting the vehicle's oth-erwise natural but undesirabletendency to straighten up.
ABS interventionTechnically speaking, dependingon the riding situation ABS Proadapts ABS intervention to themotorcycle's bank angle. Signalsfor rate of roll and rate of yawand lateral acceleration are usedto calculate bank angle. Thesesignals come from the angularrate sensor, an integral compon-ent of Dynamic Traction ControlDTC and Dynamic ESA.As the motorcycle is heeled overmore and more as it banks intoa corner, an increasingly strictlimit is imposed on the brake-pressure gradient for the start of

brake application. This slows thebuild-up of brake pressure to acorresponding degree. Addition-ally, pressure modulation is moreuniform across the range of ABSintervention.
Advantages for the riderThe advantages of ABS Pro forthe rider are sensitive responseand high braking and directionalstability combined with best-casedeceleration of the motorcycle,even when cornering.
Dynamic TractionControl (DTC)How does traction controlwork?Traction control is available intwo versions
without provision for the bankangle: Automatic Stability Con-trol ASC
ASC is a rudimentary functionintended to prevent falls.with provision for bank angle:Dynamic Traction Control DTCDTC regulation is more del-icate and more comfortablethanks to the additional bankangle and acceleration informa-tion.
The traction control system com-pares the speed of rotation atthe circumferences of the frontwheel and the rear wheel. Thedifferential is used to computeslip as a measure of the reservesof stability available at the rearwheel. If slip exceeds a certainlimit, the engine managementsystem intervenes and adaptsengine torque accordingly.
WARNING
Risky ridingRisk of accident despite DTC
Invariably, the rider bears re-sponsibility for assessing roadand traffic conditions and ad-opting his or her style of ridingaccordingly.Do not take risks that wouldnegate the additional safetyoffered by this system.
Special situationsIn accordance with the laws ofphysics, the ability to accelerateis restricted more and more asthe angle of heel increases. Con-sequently, there can be a per-ceptible reduction in accelerationout of very tight bends.
The speeds of the front and rearwheels are compared and DTC,unlike ASC, also takes the bankangle into account in processingdata to detect the rear wheel'sincipient tendency to spin or slipsideways.

with Dynamic Traction Control(DTC)OE
If the electronic processor re-ceives values for the bank anglethat it considers implausible overa lengthy period, a dummy valueis used for the bank angle or theDTC function is switched off.Under these circumstances theindicator for a DTC fault shows.Self-diagnosis has to completebefore fault messages can be is-sued.The BMW Motorrad TractionControl can shut down automat-ically under the exceptional ridingconditions outlined below.Exceptional ridingconditions:
Riding for a lengthy period withthe front wheel lifted off theground (wheelie).Rear wheel rotating with thevehicle held stationary by ap-plying the front brake (burn-out).
Heating up with the motorcycleon an auxiliary stand, in neutralor with a gear engaged.
If the encoding plug for the DY-NAMIC PRO riding mode is notinserted, accelerating the mo-torcycle to a defined minimumspeed after switching the ignitionoff and then on again reactivatesthe DTC.
Minimum speed for ac-tivation of DTC
min 10 km/h
If the front wheel lifts clear of theground under severe accelera-tion, the ASC or DTC reducesengine torque in the RAIN andROAD riding modes until thefront wheel regains contact withthe ground.Wheelie assistance is deactivatedin the DYNAMIC PRO ridingmode.
Under these circumstances,BMW Motorrad recommendsrolling the throttle slightly closedso as to restore stability with theleast possible delay.
When riding on a slippery sur-face, never snap the throttletwistgrip fully closed withoutpulling the clutch at the sametime. Engine braking torque cancause the rear wheel to skid, witha corresponding loss of stability.The BMW Motorrad DTC is un-able to control a situation of thisnature.

Riding modeSelectionRiding mode selectionDifferent riding modes enable themotorcycle's characteristics toadapt to the prevailing weatherconditions, the road and traffic,and the rider's style of riding:
RAINROAD (standard mode)
with riding modes Pro OE
DYNAMICDYNAMIC PRO (only with codingplug inserted)
Each of these modes producesperceptible differences in theway the motorcycle behaves.ABS and/or ASC/DTC can beswitched off in each ridingmode. The explanations belowapply with the correspondingsuspension and running-gearcontrol systems switched on.The mode last selected isautomatically reactivated after theignition has been switched offand then on again.The basic rule is: the sportier theriding mode you select, the moredirectly can you tap into the en-gine's reserves of power. At thesame time, the level of rider as-sistance that the ABS and ASC/DTC systems offer decreases ac-cordingly.

The RAIN, ROAD and DY-NAMIC riding modes are set upfor riding with standard tyres re-commended by BMW Motorrad.The DYNAMIC PRO ridingmode is for tyres with very goodgrip, surfaces with a very highlevel of grip, and one-up riding.Consequently, you must alwaysbear the following in mind withregard to your selection of a rid-ing mode:
The sportier the setting, thegreater the challenge to yourriding skill!It is the rider's responsibility toselect the correct riding mode.For example, the DYNAMICPRO riding mode is totally un-suitable for wet surfaces.
Mode changesA changeover of the functions inthe engine management system,the ABS and the ASC or, as ap-plicable, the DTC systems while
riding is possible only in certainoperating states:
No drive torque at the rearwheelNo brake pressure in the brakesystem.
One of the following precondi-tions has to be satisfied in orderfor this condition to be achieved:
The vehicle is at a standstillwith the ignition switched on.With the vehicle on the move,the throttle twistgrip must beturned back and the brakelevers must be in the releasedpositions.
The desired riding mode is ini-tially preselected. The modechange does not take place untilthe control systems in questionare all in the appropriate state.The selection menu does notdisappear from the display until
the change of riding modes hascompleted.
Riding mode RAINWet roadsThe RAIN riding mode offerssafety and directional stability onwet roads or roads with a simil-arly low coefficient of friction.

Sporty one-up ridingDYNAMIC PRO is the sportiestriding mode. The DYNAMICPRO mode cannot be activatedunless the coding plug is inser-ted.The DYNAMIC PRO ridingmode was developed for situ-ations in which the rider has anopen view of the road aheadand the surroundings and is forriding on dry surfaces with thehigh level of grip generally en-countered only on race tracks.Similarly, the assumption onwhich the parameter settings forthis riding mode are based is thatthe motorcycle is fitted with tyreswith a very high level of surfacegrip and is ridden one-up.

Shift assistant Prowith shift assistant Pro OE
Your vehicle is equipped with ashift assistant, a system originallydeveloped for racing and now ad-apted for riding on public roads.It permits upshifts and downshiftswithout declutching in virtually allload and rpm ranges.
Advantages70-80 % of all gearshifts on atrip can be done without usingthe clutch.Less relative movementbetween rider and passengerbecause the shift pauses areshorter.It is not necessary to close thethrottle when upshifting underacceleration; the throttle valveremains open.When braking and downshifting(throttle valve closed), enginespeed is automatically adjustedby blipping the throttle.Shift time is shorter than agearshift with clutch actuation.
In order for the system to identifya request for a gearshift, the riderhas to move the shift lever fromits idle position in the desired dir-ection against the force of thespring through a certain "over-travel" at ordinary speed or rap-

idly and keep the shift lever inthis position until the gearshift iscompleted. It is not necessaryto increase the force applied tothe shift lever while shifting isin progress. Once the gearshifthas completed the shift lever hasto be fully released before an-other gearshift with the Pro shiftassistant can take place. Keepthe corresponding load condi-tion (throttle grip position) con-stant before and during the gearshift for gear shifts using the shiftassistant Pro. A change in theposition of the throttle twistgripduring a gearshift can cause thefunction to abort and/or lead to amissed shift. The shift assistantPro provides no assistance forthe gear change if the rider de-clutches.Downshifting
Downshifting is assisted untilmaximum rpm for the targetgear to be selected is reached.
This prevents overreving.
Maximum engine speed
max 12000 min-1
UpshiftingUpshifting is assisted until idlerpm for the target gear to beselected is reached.This prevents the engine fromdropping below idle speed.

your vehicle is ridden in areaswith high air pollution or naturalsources of dirt, for example treeresin or pollen.Remove particularly aggressivesubstances immediately, how-ever, as otherwise the paint canbe affected or become discol-oured. Substances of this natureinclude spilt fuel, oil, grease,brake fluid and bird droppings.We recommend BMW vehiclepolish or BMW paint cleaner forthis purpose.Marks on the paintwork are par-ticularly easy to see after thevehicle has been washed. Re-move stains of this kind imme-diately, using cleaning-gradebenzene or petroleum spirit on aclean cloth or ball of cotton wool.BMW Motorrad recommends us-ing BMW tar remover for remov-ing specks of tar. Remember towax the parts treated in this way.
Preserving paintworkBMW Motorrad recommendsapplying only BMW car wax orproducts containing carnaubawax or synthetic wax to preservethe paintwork.It is time to rewax the paint-work when water "puddles" onthe surface, instead of formingbeads.
Laying up themotorcycle
Clean the motorcycle.
Fill the motorcycle's fuel tank.
Removing battery ( 159).Spray the brake and clutchlever pivots and the main andside stand pivots with a suit-able lubricant.
Coat bright metal and chrome-plated parts with an acid-freegrease (e.g. Vaseline).
Stand the motorcycle in a dryroom in such a way that thereis no load on either wheel(preferably using the front-wheel and rear-wheel standsfrom BMW Motorrad).
Restoring motorcycleto use
