User Manual

Exceptional riding
conditions:
Riding for a lengthy period with
the front wheel lifted off the
ground (wheelie).
Rear wheel rotating with the
vehicle held stationary by ap-
plying the front brake (burn-
out).
Heating up with the motorcycle
on an auxiliary stand, in neutral
or with a gear engaged.
When riding on a slippery sur-
face, never snap the throttle grip
fully closed without pulling the
clutch at the same time. En-
gine braking torque can cause
the rear wheel to skid, with a cor-
responding loss of stability. The
BMW Motorrad DTC is unable to
control a situation of this nature.
