Redline Warning - BMW F800R Rider's Manual

Brake pads
7
New brake pads have to bed
down before they can achieve
76
their optimum friction levels. You
can compensate for this initial re-
duction in braking efficiency by
exerting greater pressure on the
levers.
WARNING
z
New brake pads.
Longer stopping distance. Risk
of accident.
Apply the brakes in good
time.
Tyres
New tyres have a smooth sur-
face. This must be roughened by
riding in a restrained manner at
various heel angles until the tyres
are run in. This running in pro-
cedure is essential if the tyres are
to achieve maximum grip.
WARNING
New tyres losing grip on wet
roads and at extreme bank
angles.
Risk of accident
Ride carefully and avoid ex-
tremely sharp inclines.
