Dirt or mud on brakes
When riding on loose surfaces
or muddy roads, the brakes
may fail to take effect immedi-
ately because of dirt or mois-
ture on the disks or brake pads.
The brakes have to clean
themselves before they start
to bite.
Dirt on the brakes increases
the rate of pad wear.
Oil and grease on brakes
Brake disks and pads must be
free from oil and grease.
If the brake lever can be moved
right to the limit of its travel,
this indicates a mechanical or
hydraulic fault. The brake sys-
tem is defective.
Immediately consult a special-
ized workshop, preferably an
authorized BMW motorcycle
retailer.
