How does DTC work?
The BMW Motorrad DTC com-
pares the wheel speeds of the
front and rear wheel. From the
speed difference the slip, and
with it the stability reserves on
the rear wheel are determined.
When a slip limit is exceeded, the
engine torque is adapted by the
engine management system.
WARNING
Risky riding style.
Accident hazard despite DTC.
The rider is always responsi-
ble for adapting his/her driving
style.
riding
Do not reduce the system's ex-
tra safety margin with careless
riding or unnecessary risks.
Special situations
As lean angles increase, accel-
eration potential is also progres-
sively restricted by the laws of
physics. This can result in re-
duced acceleration when coming
out of very tight curves.
To detect spinning or slipping
away of the rear wheel, the
speeds of the front and rear
wheel are compared and the
angle is considered, for example.
If these values are detected to
be implausible for a long period,
a replacement value is used for
the angle and the DTC function
is deactivated. In these cases,
a DTC error is displayed. A
self-diagnosis routine must be
completed before the error will
be displayed.
In the following unusual driving
states, the BMW Motorrad DTC
can be automatically deactivated.
Unusual riding conditions:
Driving on the rear wheel
(wheelie) for a longer period
with DTC deactivated.
Rear wheel spinning in place
with front brake engaged (burn
out).
Heating up on an auxiliary
stand at idle speed or with gear
engaged.
