Brake system - with BMW Integral ABS
RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION
The RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is the braking effi-
ciency without the hydraulic
servo assistance of the BMW
Integral ABS.
If the BMW Integral ABS devel-
ops a fault, a RESIDUAL BRAK-
ING FUNCTION only is available
in the brake circuits in question.
Under these circumstances,
therefore, you must apply CON-
SIDERABLY higher pressure to
the brake levers in question in
order to apply the brakes, and
lever travel is longer.
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active, the ABS
function is unavailable in the
brake system in question.
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active, the inte-
gral braking function is partially
or entirely unavailable.
When the RESIDUAL BRAK-
ING FUNCTION is active,
maintain a defensive riding
style and proceed immediate-
ly to the nearest authorized
BMW motorcycle retailer.
When the RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active, it is advis-
able to set adjuster A
(
27) on the front-brake lever
b
to position 4.
The RESIDUAL BRAKING
FUNCTION is active under the
following circumstances:
– Ignition off
– Before and during self-diag-
nosis (
